“Who else is freaking out about #BlogHer12? I’m not packed, nothing is printed out, and who knows who’ll feed the kid for 3 days.”
My latest tweet sums up my state of mind: I’m leaving for BlogHer ’12 tomorrow. Tomorrow!
We just came back from three days in Pennsylvania, I haven’t even unpacked from that trip, and now I need to pack a bigger suitcase for three nights in New York City.
BlogHer ’12 sponsor? Little Pima, check. New business cards? Check. But that’s about it so far. I still have to print out the ticket, the hotel reservation info, the agenda, the invitation confirmations of all the events I was invited to…
And I think I’m out of ink.
My post about the Amish Country will have to wait. Same with a post about World Breastfeeding Week.
Plus, it might be prudent to get some food into this house or the kid is going to eat cereal bars for three days.
The one thing that did miraculously come together was getting new outfits for BlogHer ’12.
I didn’t even plan to buy new clothes, but I happened to have to go to the bank yesterday, which happens to have a T.J.Maxx next to it.
I thought I’ll just take a look and see if I can find a new dress. I was getting pretty tired of my old ones, and I ended up buying four, plus two new cardigans. Because I’m always freezing in those conference rooms.
Here is my loot. I’m pretty proud that I only paid $150 for all of these dresses.
Dress #1: Calvin Klein, $49.99
Dress #2: Valerie Bertinelli, $24.99
Dress #3: London Times, $24.99
Dress #4: Maggy London, $39.99
Which one should I wear first?
Gotta run, hope to see you at BlogHer ’12!

Gorgeous choices and the prices are amazing. We pay sooo much more for quality clothing in Australia. The bloggers from Australia who went to BlogHer have been raving about the shopping and the prices! Thanks for linking up for Flash Blog Friday :-)
Looks like you got some great deals! I love them all but the first one is my favorite. I love me some TJMaxx ;)
Jealous that I am not going! I didn’t register in time as I had so many family issues these past few months! Have fun! I will be there next rime!
Would have been lovely to met you IRL!
Cute! Hmmm…#2 is my favorite :)
Cute dresses. I hope to meet you in person at BlogHer (my first time). And I had no idea that Valerie Bertinelli had a line of dresses! I think you did very well at Marshalls!
If you see me tomorrow at BlogHer, please say hi!
