I leave for Blogher early Thursday morning. I’d say “bright” and early except I’m pretty sure it will not even BE “bright” at the ungodly hour that I’m heading to the airport.
I thought I had my wardrobe ALLLLLL figured out but things keep popping up in my schedule and I had an idea to wear my skinny jeans with some cute shoes I found on sale last week, so wardrobe = subject to change.
Obviously, I like to have options…
And that is just 4 of the 7 or 8 pairs of shoes I’m bringing (see the wedges poking out?).
What?!? I HAVE to bring my running shoes since I’m mostly running the BlogHer 5K on Friday morning and I need some flip flops for comfort after wearing all of the other ones you see here. Right? Right.
I also packed my awesome t-shirt from my sponsor Canvas Press and additional denim. Plus, I’m bringing more dresses than there are nights to wear them. I should have gone in a day early just for the all clothes-wearing. (I kid… kinda)
So…. what you see above is just a bit of what I’m bringing since I’m not packing the rest until the last possible second (also known as when Tim says to me, “Elaine are you packed yet??) And, this is our largest suitcase in order to accommodate some things I might bring back with me. (I learned my lesson at BlogHer ’09 and no, I am not a “swag hag” but people just keep giving you stuff!!) Plus I’m really good at donating. 🙂
BlogHer ’11 here I come!
p.s. bring a bathing suit or not?
p.p.s. NOT bringing my laptop since I didn’t use it but once last time.
p.p.s.s Can tweet from my phone! WOOT!
Linking up with Wordful Wednesday HERE!
HAVE A BLAST!!!!!!!!!!
XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Hope you have fun!
Whooooaaaa baby! Have fun! I can’t wait to go…but not this year for me!
represent!!
Squeee! Have a fantabulous time. PS: I want to borrow that red & white dress with the blue belt/sash. So cute.
Have a great trip. It’s a long way for Louisiana girls! Thx for visiting Nola Mommy.
Have a great time! Looks like you have all the right shoes!
Have a great time!!
I have my bag all packed too and I picked the biggest one I have.
I want that dress!! Shocker, eh?
So fun!!!! Have a blast! 🙂
I ALWAYS over pack. Better to be over prepared than not I say. Love all that I see in your suitcase…& btw, is there room to smuggle me in there, too?!
You take your bathing suit and you make yourself find time for the beach. SD is beautiful and you must give the beach some time. You must. (Okay, I’m really just jealous you are going and so telling you what to do to make up for it.)
WHOO HOO! I’m going too. Maybe we’ll finally meet. If not, have fun!
Take the bathing suit! Wish I was joining you- have a great time and a glass of wine for me!!!!
Looks like you are all set! Have a blast! 🙂
Have fun! Maybe I can go next year if it’s close to me!
So what size shoe do you wear? I may just need to borrow those brown heels.
I do want to peak in your suitcase! 😉 Have a fab time!
Hope you have a great trip. Enjoy your week.

Hope you follow back.
Oh how fun! Have a great time!
A girls gotta have options!! Definitely bring the bathing suit and have a fantastic time!!
have fun, looks like you are ready!
My suitcase never look that pretty. You made yours look like an ad out of a magazine. Smiles. Come and join the conversations at Self Sagacity and post your Thursday Two Questions
I love the suitcase picture. Great way to display your clothes. I’m with you though, gotta have options. I dress based on my mood so I need to have a selection.
I wish I wasn’t being such a blogging slacker because I didn’t even realize Blogher was being held in SD and so many of my favs were coming to town. Drats. Well, I hope you had fun.
