Pete Cashmore, Geek Crush

Just to pre-warn you, this post is a completely pointless excuse to post pictures of the incredibly handsome Pete Cashmore.

If you don’t follow Social Media, you probably have never heard of Pete Cashmore. He is a 24 year old entrepreneur from Scotland (thank you once again, Scotland) and creator of Mashable.com; the 6th most popular blog in the world, and worth somewhere around 125 million dollars. He is one of the most well-recognised “internet celebrities” and has almost 2 million followers on twitter.

To give you an idea of why everyone is making such a fuss, here’s a quote about Pete from gawker.com regarding the possibility of AOL purchasing Mashable.

A sale to the content-obsessed internet company would mean Mashable’s founder Pete Cashmore really would have everything. Youth, being all of 24 years old. Looks, of the dark and smoldering sort the Scotsman pulls off so well (Inc. magazine popularized him as “the Brad Pitt of the blogosphere”). And cash.

Forgot about how confusing it is for a geeky social media entrepreneur to be this good looking and stylish, and enjoy the following pictures (and video):

Chiara and Richie

Chiara Ferragni is an Italian fashion blogger and author of The Blonde Salad – a fashion, photography and lifestyle blog. Richie, her boyfriend, often features in her blog and is equally gorgeous and stylish in his own right.

Chiara’s style isn’t at all similar to my own. I think she dresses very well, but I don’t read her blog for her outfits. There’s something about The Blonde Salad’s playful photographs that draw you into Chiara’s life. Of course, she just so happens very pretty and have an incredibly gorgeous boyfriend (arguably half the reason I visit her blog), but disregarding that and what I love most, is that both Chiara and Richie seem like genuinely sweet, fun people.

So if you haven’t already, I suggest you drop by TheBlondSalad.com immediately.
