Blog-Magazines For Cool Colorful Punk Babes

April 16, 2014 9:17 AM

Lately I've been really into the blog Ribbon Around A Bomb, who writes about female-fronted 70s post-punk, Twin Peaks, feminist art, and leather jackets. I also love The Pulp Zine, which is full of teen dreams and high school small town angst, an obsession with Burger Records, 90s nostalgia, black lipstick and pink hair. I'm looking for more blogs that cover punk, garage rock, femme fun, DIY, weirdo fashion, nostalgia, queerness, creativity, feminism, art, and worship of countercultural idols. Basically, I'm a fully-grown scummy punk boyfemme who wants the experience of flipping through a teen magazine tailored to my interests. What other sites would I love?

I'm not looking for "fandom" or outfit-of-the-day fashion blogging, unless they're like, really weird and awesome outfits and they're a good writer. This sort of stuff gets reblogged all over Tumblr, I really want articles and original writing. If you come in here and recommend generic "lady websites" like The Toast I will not be mad but I will think you didn't read the question, though something like Rookie would not be amiss.

Verily started as a magazine and now has moved to all online format.
I like them because they don't photoshop their models and they use real people and many body types. The style is a little more current fashion with a vintage edge than punk, but other things about it might appeal to you.
