All Things BlogHer: My Journey to Chicago Part 1

I'll Be Wearing Cute Shoes

As you know (if you are are actively blogging or reading blogs) you know that in a little over a month it will be time for BlogHer 2009 (SQUEEE). Okay composing self now. The blogging convention in Chicago and when I say I am excited I mean I am almost beside myself. My heart starts racing when I think about it, adrenaline runs through my veins spotlight on me and I’m ready to break..oops got a little off topic there with a bit of Britney.

Anyways back to the subject, I get excited I really do. My first blogging convention, parties galore, no kids, parties, networking, parties…did I mention parties :). I am really excited to get to meet so many of the bloggers, pr peeps and fellow tweetaholics in Chicago. I feel like I am stepping into a ring of celebrities with the likes of Katja, Amy, ClassyMommy…I could go on and on.

The sessions I am looking forward to of course, who doesn’t want to better themselves in doing something they love. I am looking forward to a *hopefully* drama free weekend with some AWESOME people and having memories to last a lifetime, or until the next conference whichever happens first. So I thought I would have a few posts over the next few weeks sharing some of the things I am taking with me, outfits I am considering and all that jazz.

Today I am going to show you my billboard…err shirt. You see in following with the I have no shame theme I decided I am going to be my own walking billboard through the airport to and from Chicago. I figure there are going to be thousands of people I will interact with, okay so maybe just pass but still when they read my shirt and you know they will…or so I like to tell myself they will feel compelled to see if they made the cut. So I now share with you, the world, the unveiling of my airport attire:

Okay so colors are subject to change depending on my mood when I order it. But you get the point. Not to mention I have some adorable dresses. Now I have the parties and non session clothes covered but man, I have no idea what to wear to the sessions. So if you have been to BlogHer before and want to give a girl a clue as to what the dress is during the session, I will kiss your feet when I see you there…okay well just give you a huge hug. I need help. Well at least I will look hot the rest of the time, I guess I could just go nekkid and see how people respond right :).

Next post all about the parties! And possible tattoos! Oh yeah it’s going to be a weekend to remember.

*Update, first session I think I will be in a black skirt with a cute shirt and red or black heels or a cute top with jeans and of course cute shoes, must make a good impression and be memorable right :). The Saturday session will be a bit more casual with Label Daddy shirts and my adorable jeans. Parties are as noted all about dressing up and I have 2 amazing dresses from StopStaring for 2 of the nights and the other will be a dressy top with some jeans!

    Keep It Classy, Jen

    You crack me up with the Britney!! From what I understand the session you should dress cute. No jeans and Flip Flops that for sure!

    Maybe a cute dress but not dressy!

    I would wear what you would wear to any meeting, you know? It's a marketing meeting of sorts from what I understand. Now if you are of course promoting the flipflops mentioned above with regard to multifunctionality, then of course wear them.:)
    Market YOU!:)
