You can style conditionally your top bar whether or not the admin bar from WordPress is displayed.
Check with Firebug or simply the source code of your page, you'll see that WP adds a class admin-bar on the body element. And .logged-in too but I guess this one will appear whether or not the WP admin bar is displayed.

You can then style your top bar for your visitors and for yourself, example:

.softgenic-bar {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    color: white;
    background: black;
}
.admin-bar .softgenic-bar {
    top: auto;
    bottom: 0;
    background: darkred;
}

Don't forget to add/remove padding and margin accordingly if you position your bar completely elsewhere.
You could also decide to position your bar in absolute for yourself and fixed for your visitors. Or hide it if it's irrelevant for yourself, it entirely depends on its content (you don't need to subscrive to your own newsletter for example ^^ but drawing tools in an app should still be displayed)

WordPress top bar appears if you are logged into your WordPress Admin panel. Try logging in on IE9 and you'll see the Admin bar. Also, the Admin bar uses CSS with !important attribute. But you don't have to worry as this bar will not be visible to the visitors of your site.

This Bar has wasted a lot of my time when I was first working on Wordpress theme. You should design your theme keeping in mind that there is not such bar i.e. top = 0 (may be check it in another browser where you are not logged into Admin Panel to see the real picture)
