The Style Bloggers of Color Will Host Its First Annual Conference on June 8-10, 2012

May 23, 2012 - PRLog -- May 23, 2012, Atlanta, GA – The Style Bloggers of Color Conference (http://www.stylebloggersofcolor.com), the only conference that caters to the fashion and beauty bloggers of color, will host its first annual conference at the LOFTS at Castleberry Hill in Atlanta, GA on June 8-10, 2012. The three-day event is dedicated to celebrating diversity amongst fashion and beauty bloggers across the country while bringing them together to network, gain knowledge and build support amongst each other.

Founded in 2012, by Mattie James of Mattieologie.com, it was always a dream of hers to hold a 3-day weekend event to coincide with her birthday. “When I held the Bold, Beautiful & Blogging NYFW mixer in February (of 2012), I noticed how excited and enthusiastic bloggers were for celebrating the diversity in the style blogosphere,” Mattie says. “Not only that, but brands were ecstatic to reach that audience. I figured taking this idea to the next level and creating a dynamic atmosphere and the opportunity to network with brands for my fellow bloggers would be what I wanted most for my birthday”.

With sponsors like Google, Jewel Mint and Beautiful Textures, the weekend will include 4 spectacular events. The Style Bloggers of Color fashion show will occur on Friday, June 8th, where Atlanta Style Bloggers are scheduled to be featured models. On Saturday, June 9th, the Style Bloggers of Color conference will be held, with esteemed and established bloggers as speakers. Panels will cover topics including content and consistency of posting, social media, what brands are looking for, and how to make money from blogging. Conference panelists include Rashon Carraway of RashonCarraway.com, Katie Croteau of Google, Marie Denee of TheCurvyFashionista.com, Mahelia de Randamie, fashion editor for Vogue Italia, Tiffni Gatlin of Tastemaker ATL Magazine, Alexis Felder of Curlscoilsandkinks.com, Nicole Garner, Founder and Publicist of The Garner Circle PR, Danica Kombol of BeEverywhere.tv, Amber McKinnon of Brownbombshellbeauty.com, Ria Michelle of RiaMichelle.com, Christen Rochon of DivasandDorks.com, Erin Scandalous of Scandalousbeautyonline.com, Celia San Miguel of SickaThanAverage.com, Monroe Steele of Fashionsteelenyc.com, Myleik Teele, Founder and President of curlBOX, Kimberly Walker of EBONY.com and Tress Talk, beauty editor Tia Williams of ShakeYourBeauty.com and Charles Wade, fashion and wardrobe stylist.

On Saturday evening, Curls Night Out will be held. Sure to be a good time, bloggers will be pampered in a “palooza” celebrating their beauty which will include numerous vendors located in “bars”, such as the “beauty” bar, “shoe” bar and more. Co-hosted by Maeling Tapp of Naturalchica.com and sponsored by Beautiful Textures, CNO will give attendees a time to let loose, network and enjoy the company of their fellow style bloggers. Come Sunday, June 10th, the conference wraps with the Style Bloggers of Color Awards Luncheon where winners of each category (which bloggers voted for on The Style Bloggers of Color Conference website) will be announced. Keynote speaker, Claire Sulmers of FashionBombDaily.com, will end the conference on an assured high note while sharing wisdom, experiences and knowledge on blogging with attendees.
