Community: IFB


Independent Fashion Bloggers is the #1 resource for… of course, independent fashion bloggers. It's a huge online community where fashion bloggers can share experiences, create resources so that everyone can benefit and build a better blog. They post articles and have amazing forums that are so helpful to read through. Let's dig into IFB!


If you have a fashion blog, you should register for IFB. It's a free online resource. Anyone operating an independently owned fashion blog can join. The requirements are that your blog must be about fashion and your blog must be independently owned. Easy right? They review every blog that joins, so make sure you meet requirements before signing up.




How it works? Once you are signed up and approved, IFB can be an amazing resource for you. On the home page, there are widgets where you can add new things to help you in your experience with IFB. Customize them however works best for you!


IFB Community: IFB community is where you can hear the latest from IFB (like a news feed), you can see the latest groups (groups are a great way to connect with other bloggers) and see newest members and latest blog posts and bookmarks.


Blog home: Blog home will show you Featured posts (so fun to read!), IFB on Twitter, videos on past conferences and new talking points.


Chicgeek: Chicgeek is a great resource for articles on how to survive technology! In order to be a fashion blogger, you must remain up-to-date on the latest trends in technology! How to make your blog mobile-friendly, how to survive fashion week tech, how to use twitter tools, etc. It's a great little place to learn about what you need to keep up on tech-wise.



My favorite thing about IFB? Hint: It happens twice a year!
During each fashion week, IFB hosts a conference for everything fashion-blogger related. They have videos of last year's conference where they talk about so many great topics. I attended last fall's conference and took so many great notes! If you can't attend during NYFW, they always do a live-steam that you must check out!
