The November 2011 Vancouver Blogger Meetup: Fashion Blogging

Vancouver Blogger Meetup November 2011In a wonderful turn of events, our November 2011 Vancouver Blogger Meetup turned out to be a fantastic event, thanks, in great part, to the amazing panel I assembled. I was confident that Olivia Lovenmark, Erin Gee, Tracey Rossignol and Liv Hung would all share amazing insights. What I was not really expecting was how much the audience was interested in fashion blogging.

For all I knew it was probably not the most popular topic, and in reality all I have heard is amazing things. I’m really glad that the participants felt that the panel gave them a lot of value and insight into the hard work that comes along blogging, in particular blogging about fashion. My post previewing the panel will give you links to each panelists’ websites.

Vancouver Blogger Meetup November 2011I think both the panelists enjoyed their time and sharing their experiences blogging about fashion almost as much as the audience, who was really interactive and they almost did not want to stop talking. We discussed issues of PR, branding, how to grow your readership, what kind of fashion would you blog about, etc. I was really excited and I’m glad I organized it despite having no time.

W/ @stylestruck @Erin_Gee @abeautifullife @fashion_fwrd40 at #yvrbloggersI want to be very clear that my events are successful not only because of my organizational skills (hey what modesty!) but thanks also to the support I receive. I’m very thankful to Jonathon Narvey, my Assistant Organizer, to the panelists for sharing their time and insight. and to The Network Hub downtown campus who has been our gracious host for all of 2011.

At @thenetworkhub with my #yvrbloggers panelists :) thank you so much!

If you are interested in blogging or just want to learn to blog, consider joining the Vancouver Blogger Meetup. I am the Organizer and I’ll be very happy to answer any questions you might have.

Thanks for the invite Raul. It was fun to talk to other bloggers about fashion and style specific topics. Also super to meet so many new people. And of course, catching up with you!

Out of curiosity, what is it that your group discusses? Is it mostly related to the creative side of blogging (what to write about, where to find usable photos, etc.), or the marketing side of blogging (attracting readers, selling ad space, etc.)?
