  I’ve been able to create sub pages, but how do i make my posts visible in the subpages? E.g. I have a fashion page, style subpage, how do I make a previous post available in the style sub page?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You don’t.

  Pages and posts are entirely different things: http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  Now, if you want to have a fashion page, what you do is use the tag or category Fashion on those posts. Then you use a custom menu to link to that category page in the header http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

  I know the difference between a post and a page. I previously read through all your links but didn’t find them helpful thus why i asked for help. (I’m a bit thick).

  Step 1. I created another page that isn’t the Home page called Fashion

  Step 2. I created a sub page called trends

  Step 3. Created a custom menu with page fashion + page style

  Step 4. Added my existing category called fashion to the menu.

  Step 5. Saved created menu.

  But I still have a blank page when i click on my Fashion page and my style page (no posts from the category fashion).

  Where did I miss a step?

  You are using PAGES. That is what you’re doing wrong.

  You don’t need those pages. You need only the link to the Category. Like, on my blog I have the category Cthulhu. The category link is http://raincoaster.com/category/cthulhu and if I wanted to do what you’re doing I’d put THAT link in. You don’t need static pages at all.
