Tavi Gevinson is a 15 year old girl that's more successful than you. She's establishing her way into fame by being extraordinarily knowledgeable and a walking trend-setter emitting "cool" through everything she does. Starting a blog at 11, The Style Rookie gained a following and led to Ms. Gevinson's publication of Rookie Magazine. Tavi explains the blog and the zine as a sort of mecca for teenage girls, not promising an answer or an opinion, but a place to discover ones self. Watching her Ted Talk, Gevinson displays the new wave of Feminism, a "cool" that resembles nods to Margot Tenenbaum among others, a fresh fashion sense that evolves as fast as it catches on, and an enlightened teen spirit of not giving a decisive shit on anything.
Ted Talk
If that's not enough to hate yourself for doing nothing at fifteen but playing video games and prank calling Pizzahut, wait until you obsessively YouTube video clips of her. She's got gumption, and I like that. So three "You go Glen Coco's" to Tavi Gevinson, one of the few youngsters to remember for something more than a hit single or a sex tape. Not to mention her music taste is INCREDIBLE.
