<\/p>\n
As we mentioned briefly in one of yesterday's posts, celebrity clout is not the most important quality in selecting our speakers each year for IFBcon. We work very hard to put together panels and select keynotes that will motivate our attendees and then absolutely dazzle them with smart commentary, inspiring stories and of course – a sassy one-liner or two.<\/p>\n
To be sure, some of this season's speakeres definitely<\/em> have that celebrity cache that can come with excellence in our industry, and some you may not be familiar with yet. Famous, unknown, up-and-coming, community veterans – let's get to know the fabulous speakers, panelists and moderators of IFBcon 2013.<\/p>\n Moderator: Hilary Rushford, Dean Street Society @HilaryRushford<\/a><\/p>\n Elise Loehnen, [Beso<\/a> @Beso<\/a>]<\/p>\n Tina Craig, [Bag Snob @BagSnob<\/a>]<\/p>\n Pippa Lord, [Sous Style @SousStyle<\/a>]<\/p>\n Amy Levin, [College Fashionista @CFashionista<\/a>]<\/p>\n Zanita Morgan, [Zanita @ZanitaZanita<\/a>]<\/p>\n Moderator: [Grace Atwood<\/a>, Stripes & Sequins<\/a>]<\/p>\n Dina Fierro, [HL Group<\/a> @eye4style<\/a>]<\/p>\n Felicia Walker Benson, [ThisThatBeauty<\/a> @ThisThatBeauty]<\/p>\n Christine Olsen, [CFDA<\/a> @CFDA<\/a>]<\/p>\n Matt Edelman, [The Glossi, @Glossi<\/a>]<\/p>\n Brian Difeo, [Mobile Media Lab, @bridif<\/a>]<\/p>\n Moderator: Meg Biram [Meg Biram<\/a>, @megbiram]<\/p>\n Alle Fister, Principal at [Bollare<\/a> @allefister<\/a>]<\/p>\n Laura Ellner, [On the Racks @OntheRacks<\/a>]<\/p>\n Julia Engel, [Gal Meets Glam, @GalMeetsGlam<\/a>]<\/p>\n Moderator: Justin Livingston, [Scout Sixteen<\/a> @JustinLiv<\/a>]<\/p>\n Scott Allan, [Rakuten Linkshare @LinkshareBlog<\/a>]<\/p>\n Aimee Song, [Song of Style<\/a> @AimeeSong<\/a>]<\/p>\n Claire Sulmers, [Fashion Bomb Daily<\/a> @TheFashionBomb<\/a>]<\/p>\n Kristin Ess, [The Beauty Department @Kristin_Ess<\/a>\/ @TBDOfficial<\/a>]<\/p>\n Joe Adolph, [Nordstrom<\/a> @Nordstrom<\/a>]<\/p>\n Moderator: Karen Blanchard, [Where Did You Get That, @KarenBritChic<\/a>]<\/p>\n Stephanie Horbaczewski, [StyleHaul, @StyleHaulYT<\/a>]<\/p>\n Susie Lau, [Style Bubble,\u00a0@StyleBubble<\/a>]<\/p>\n Jeannine Morris, [Beauty Sweet Spot @BeautySweetSpot]<\/p>\n Leandra Medine, [The Man Repeller @ManRepeller]<\/p>\n Andrea Lavinthal, [People Style Watch @stylewatchmag<\/a>]<\/p>\n Moderator: Rachel Seville, [Pizza Rulez\u00a0@rsevillet<\/a>]<\/p>\n Andrea Derricks, [L2 Think Tank, @L2_ThinkTank]<\/p>\n Dan Meehan, [PadSquad<\/a> @PadSquadMedia<\/a>]<\/p>\n Jake Gallagher, [Writer for GQ.com & Esquire online<\/a>, @Wax_Wane]<\/p>\n Liz Cherkasova, [Late Afternoon @LateAfternoon<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/h4>\n
