i want to find some fashion and design blogs/tumblr/pinterest/svpply that don't rely exclusively on photos of thin white femme women. any suggestions? seems like those sites are seriously saturated with  gender-role-supporting/long-blonde-hair/rosey cheeks/ country house pictures...

Not an answer to your request, but timely commentary on the topic: http://prettysmartgirlart.blogspot.com/2012/07/dream-boat-annie.html

"What saddens me is the lack of discourse, the lack of acknowledgement of the story-telling that goes on. A lot of the women bloggers part of and witnessing this shift to the mainstream, are intelligent, funny, culturally savvy, even feminist, or at least some sort of liberal feminists (Ask me about the difference between liberal and radical feminists. No, really.), aware of all the contradictions and dichotomies of being a woman; so it would stand to reason that there would be a lively conversation about the commercialisation of the style/fashion/vintage/life-style blogging experience."

From my favorite long-haired rosy-cheeked lifestyle blog. :)
