“Bloggers are here to stay and are all different”
– Teen Vogue

Posted Wednesday, February 17th, 2010 in Fashion Blogging

I couldn’t have said it better myself. Thanks @TeenVogue! The iBFcon they are talking about is Independent Fashion Blogger‘s Evolving Influence fashion blogger conference held over the weekend in New York City (during New York Fashion Week)

Fashion bloggers are here to stay, and we’re all different.

We don’t all take photos of ourselves or other people’s stylish looks, we don’t all report on the latest runway looks or fashion trends. Take the time to learn a little about us and we will do the same for you. We outlined the different types of fashion bloggers in our launch issue of iBlogFashion. If you missed it you can download it here or read some of it here.

  • Signature9 launched Style99 last year, with the aim to come up with a list of the most influential style blogs in the world. The top 99 are available for public viewing but if you want the full list of 400+ style blogs, you will have to fork out USD$99 for the list. Blogs are ranked according to a range of factors, including: Yahoo links, PageRank, Unique Domain Links, Alexa Points, Delicious Points and Google Blog Links to come up with the final number. I’m pleased to say that my own SASSYBELLA.com is the only Australian fashion blog to makes the list, scraping in at 98 for the month of January 2010.
