"This Is Not a Fashion Story" details how the influencer got to where she is today, both personally and professionally.Author:Tyler McCallPublish date:May 12, 2020The most that followers ever get to see of influencers' lives is a tightly-curated feed of highlights, with maybe a few less polished, behind-the-curtain glimpses on Instagram Stories. Danielle Bernstein, the blogger behind We Wore What, is changing that with her new memoir, This Is Not a Fashion Story, debuting May 12.
If it sounds revealing, that's because it is: According to Bernstein, This Is Not a Fashion Story started as a very different book, after a brutal breakup about five years ago. But the timing wasn't right back then. Now, rounding in on the 10th anniversary of We Wore What, Bernstein wants to connect with her community on a new level.
"She had covered me for her online magazine and I felt like our voices really aligned," Bernstein says. "I had written a bunch already by myself and then we spent hours on the phone together; as she would help me write the chapters, we would go over them literally line by line. It was almost like our voices became one.
