Lucky FABB Fall 2011

All smiles and excited for the conference with Helena

Last Wednesday I was able to attend the Lucky FABB conference! It’s always a great event filled with industry leaders talking about their business, how to grow our blogs, and all around great advice and stories following their own personal journeys. One of my all time favorite parts of the conference was a special talk with Diane Von Furstenberg. She spoke with a deep passion for woman and it was refreshing to hear her with such respect and support for our individual voices. I was lucky enough to snap this photo with her thanks to Kristina!

The Kardashian sisters were there dishing about business + family.

On breaks from panels, we checked out different brands booths. I loved seeing all the Essie polishes that were accompanied by cupcakes. I was also OBSESSED with this pair of JBrand Skinnies that look alot like leather but were actually jeans.

I got to meet so many of the ladies that I am constantly seeking inspiration from, and have such a great respect for. This conference is always an amazing place to be connected with such wonderful people in the blogging community. I had to catch Alicia, who was too cute for words, with her cheetah print camera strap. I also was beyond the moon excited to meet Krystal who is always a constant inspiration to me and all around GREAT friend.

And I always have love for my girl Kristina who I got to see for a bit at FABB also!

If you don’t know John, you need to immediately! He is the wonderful face behind TEXTBOOK and is the Director of the Lucky Style Collective.

After the conference, we enjoyed some cocktails and got to hear Ellie Goulding serenade us. I loved Helena’s accessories and had to capture them with her bubbly.

The last shot is the look I styled for the Zappos Up and Coming Blogger Contest! A little peak into the awards ceremony. The conference was such a great day!! Big thank you to Lucky for having me be part of the festivities.
