Remember the days of corkboards? We would sit for hours and tear out pictures of everything from Jonathan Taylor Thomas to Lip Smacker advertisements. While the corkboard may not be completely diminished, something else has won us over, Pinterest. Its clever name combines pinning your interests and everyone from Whitney Port to Rachel Zoe are fans. Both of which I admit I follow.
If you’re looking to pick up some new boards to follow, we suggest you pine over these L.A. pinners.
Carrie Hosozawa has 30 boards and 10,365 pins. Etsy fans rejoice because that board alone is 3 shy of hitting 200 pins. Don’t forget to check out her interior design pins. With 10,365, there’s enough to go around.
We love a good blogger and Joy Cho is no exception. She has crossed realms into Pinterest and now has nearly five million followers. You read that right. What’s the allure? Only that she has a great eye for design. She is a graphic designer and it certainly shows in her boards.
If you haven’t heard of Joie, Equipment and Current/Elliott, you must be living under a rock. Their Social Media Guru is an expert at getting the word out. She can now add Pinterest favorite to her fashion resumé. Michelle Halpern knows her stuff about style. It’s obvious in her 2,679 pins. Don’t miss out on her chandelier board. There are no words to describe it.
The Ray and the Roo is an L.A. and London-based fashion blog. These two best friends are style gurus. You could get lost in their boards and many have. They have everything from L.A. pride to Chanel.
If you get excited over Typography, Bri Emery has the Pinterest for you. She is a designer and the blogger behind Design Love Fest. She has plenty of fancy fonts to add to her collection of illustrations and backgrounds. Don’t take my word for it. Explore for yourself.
With social media taking over the world with everything from Facebook to Twitter, it’s hard to know who to follow and what to pin. Luckily for you we got you covered. Happy pinning!
