Remember last January when I mentioned that Fashion-Incubator was nominated for the Fabbies Fashion Blog Awards organized by luminaries such as Fashiontribes, Bag Snob and Manolo’s Shoeblog?

The awards will be presented during New York Fashion Week in September. Speaking of, I wonder if I could justify a jaunt up there. I’ve never been to an official fashion week event.

CONGRATULATIONS! (Big happy dance for you)
I can’t think of a better reason to justify a trip to the Big Apple :-)
Congratulations! Nobody could deserve it more.
Awesome!
Congratulations! I love your blog, and read at least the beginning of every entry even though most of the posts have nothing whatever to do with my life. This somehow does not stop me from reading the next one.
Way to go Kathleen. yes…come on over!
With friendship,
Lisa
Congratz! I am so proud of you.
Nice. You deserve it.
I’ve really enjoyed reading this blog over the last 6 months (to the extent that it’s on my RSS feed) and you really deserve it, I’ve found this site a really refreshing and interesting read, well done!!!
Congratulations! You deserve a fashion week trip!
Congratulations! It’s so very much deserved for all the work you do to make this such a wonderful site, and for your generous sharing of your wealth of knowledge. As Claudine said, not all your posts have much to do with me and my life, but they’re all interesting. Thanks for enriching the web for all of us!
Congradulations in caps and with many exclamation points! And I hope you get the chance to go claim it in person and party with your friends and many well-wishers. (I know there are many of them because anyone who reads your blog must surely become one.) Sarah@dosfashionistas
Congratulations, it’s nice that you can see how much we value you and the incredible amount of work you put into maintaining this site. And if you can’t justify a trip to NY for that, waht reason would do it?!
Yes, this is so totally deserved, my friend- Congratulations! You- and your incredible mind- rock!!
Congratulations! It is always nice to know you are appreciated and know that you have touched many lives and many careers even when you do not always hear about it. Revel in the warmth of the virtual applause.

Hurray! Nice when a vote counts (not like those pesky political elections).
Richly deserved…
Helen.
Well derserved, congratulations!
Wooooo Hooo!!! If you can come up for Fashion Week, I’ll try to get down to NYC to buy you a congratulatory drink!
Throwing confetti around for you!
Ann
Awesome!
Congratulations!
So glad to see you recognized for the fabulous-ness of this blog! If I have any success in this field, it will be due to you and the wealth of information in your book and blog. Congratulations!
Congratulations! You deserve at least an award, in recognition of all that you put out there.
Congratulation- Well deserved!
Way to go, Kathleen! Congratulations! This is my third year reading FI, and I still find it fascinating, even though I’m far removed from the world of design-entrepreneurs. The two characteristics I associate with Kathleen are passion and integrity; both are amply demonstrated here, and both hold my interest. Thank you, Kathleen. You really deserve the award.
Big congratulations – we’re a big fan of your blog over at Knickers!
