One of the main task I am trying to achieve through this meet up is to create Collaboration with your fellow Bloggers in the form of Guest Blogging, which is a great way of sharing readers and working together.

Programme:

6:30-7:00 Checking in And Getting comfortable with drinks

7:00- 8:00 Getting Comfortable with Drinks and Nibbles (Bumpkin has Sponsored some great Canapes!)

8:00-8:30 : “Monetize your Blog’s Content” by  Travis Lee Street.

“Travis Lee Street is the Brand Director of fashion discovery startup Shop Of Me, Director of digital agency Applaud Social and founder of fashion/culture blog COMEINTOLAND. He recently was part of Decoded Fashion London and was asked to 10 Downing Street as a tech entrepreneur in the fashion space.

Please leave a comment with your Name,Blog, Twitter handle at the end of this post so that I have a estimate of how many of you are joining us.The Bumpkin has space for quite a few of us, which is great and also there is a TV screen so hopefully I can get in some speakers now for a casual session!

As some of you came for the last meetup, here are their details:

Apologies for being AWOL for a while,Have had a busy couple of weeks, with new projects and deadlines mounting on my desk!

It made me doubt my own time management skills, till I met a few other fellow bloggers at the first ever London Fashion Bloggers Meetup,and was told it is alright if you happen to miss out a few posts when working full-time!

The whole ideas behind the London Fashion Bloggers Meetup was to network with other bloggers, Digital Fashion Startups, Online Boutiques and Labels and last but not the least Online Retail Businesses, and I must admit, I was very pleased with the outcome.

Getting some cupcakes from Crumbs and Doilies, with a Bon Fire Night theme, the meetup was organised at Founders Arms, with a gorgeous view of the St.Pauls. Some of us were spotting the fireworks in the sky, and other clapped on the trails of it, in between sipping some great Bloody Mary and Mulled Wines:)

On the whole, it was a great night with a good turnout,great conversations regarding the future of bloggers, the hardship of being a blogger and how to carry on doing what you do without loosing yourself to brands while maintaining originality!That, and plus the company of great people who think alike..what else could one ask for?

Have a look at the pictures.List of all the attendees is at the bottom of the page.
