The following is an excerpt of Christopher Borrelli's Chicago Tribune article on Tavi Gevinson, AKA The Style Rookie:
"More important, it was the summer that Gevinson began to transition from novelty to established voice — from being an unnervingly precious middle-school fashion blogger, profiled by the New Yorker at 14 and feted by the fashion industry at 12 (so self-possessed that she turned down "The Oprah Winfrey Show") to being an unnervingly incisive and poised media brand with staying power."
Am I the only one who seriously questions the amount of "self-possession" someone at the ripe age of 15 can have? I worried her exalted status could be setting her up for therapy in the future.
Seriously, she spoke at TED?
Can you imagine the pressure? Its hard enough just being 16. Yikes!
