Off The Shoulder Top On Major Repeat

March 9, 2017

Hooray the weekend is almost here!! I’m so excited to start the weekend, and the best part is we have nothing to do this weekend. The last couple weekends we’ve had so much going on over the weekend that we haven’t really had a chance to spend much time together. The plan this weekend includes snuggling with the kiddos, going to the park if it doesn’t rain, and a Redbox movie or two. Then again, we might watch The Night Manager instead. It’s available on Amazon Prime, and I’ve wanted to watch it this week, but our DVR was pretty full. So, we had to catch up on This Is Us, The Americans, and I’m sure there’s more, but you get the gist of it.

Okay, on to this cute OTS top. It’s been on major repeat becasue I love the color, and cut. It’s one of my favorites, and yep I’ve worn it a few times already this week. What can I say when I like something I really like it. To switch it up, and dress it up a little I wore these black jeans, and this grey cardigan. Cardigans are one of my absolute must haves for basically any outfit. It might have someting to do with the fact that I’m usually always cold, or becasue I haven’t lost the last 5 pounds of baby weight.

Do ya’ll have big plans this weekend, or do you have a weekend of relaxing ahead of you as well?

Happy Wednesday!! I’m sharing five of my favorite dupes for some of the most popular shoes right now. I love the dupes becasue I feel less guilty buying new shoes. I have the Marc Fisher dupes, and I love them so much!! I think the ballet lace up flats, or the Sam Edelman heels are next on my list. If you all would like more of these splurge vs. steal posts let me know. I love putting this type of list together. It’s my favorite way to save money, if you know what I mean.

Alright, it’s almost 11, and I have a feeling Sofia is going to be up in a few hours. So, good night, and I hope ya’ll have a great day!!

Thank you so much for stopping by!!

3 Reasons To Attend A Blogging Conference

March 6, 2017

It has been such a rainy weekend, and I apologize that these photos aren’t as good as I wish they were. I really wanted to share one of the outfits I wore to Thrive Conference. I wore this for the last day of the conference. It was a short day with one break out session class. I wanted my outfit to be comfortable, and cute since this was the more hands on portion of the conference. It was a really good session with lots of ideas on how to grow social media followings without buying followers. Which is something I am completely against.

Okay, so I want to share why you should go to a conference for whatever industry you’re in, and especially if you’re a blogger. So, I’m going to share my top three reasons why you should invest in yourself, and go to a work conference for you.

Meeting other bloggers in your field is awesome, especially when you meet bloggers that you’ve been following that are attending the same conference. Yes, I’ve gotten to have that fan girl moment which was awesome!! Also, it’s really nice to make friends who are passionate about the same thing. Blogging is one of those things where we document so much, and it’s really cool to be around people who understand the need for a zillion photos at different angles so you can get just the right photo.
Learning more about what you’re passionate about is important, and a lot of times leading brands are at conferences. They can give invaluable advice and insight.
The last one I can’t promise, but a lot of the time you can meet brands that you wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to have face to face time with. Which is great for any blogger, but it can be really helpful for newer bloggers. The reason being newer bloggers aren’t always as seasoned at finding the PR contacts for companies, and that possible face to face time is really helpful.

Thank you so much for stopping by, and I hope ya’ll have a great start to your week!!
