Sunny Days Take Me Back to California…

Well, hi there!  I hope you are having a wonderful week so far.  It’s already Wednesday {and April fools day}!!  As I mentioned last week, I ventured out to Los Angelos for the Simply Stylist Fashion and Beauty Conference.  It was a huge success.  I actually finally met Rebecca in person from Mommy in Heels  and Lauren, from The Style Elixir.  I’ve actually had interaction with these two via email and blogging since I’ve started my blog.  It was so nice to actually meet them in person.  Of course, both are as sweet as I knew they would be.  I’ll give some more details about the conference tomorrow and some snaps from the trip.  First, here is the outfit I wore.  I get so nervous meeting people, I completely agonized over what to wear.  I finally made the decision.  Gorgeous wide leg pants with a white tank-very spring like.  I get to California and sure enough, I left my pants in Pittsburgh.  It’s a good thing I can’t figure out the concept of “packing light” because I had plenty to choose from.  I went with this sleeveless body con and added this adorable white vest with some edgy lace up booties.  On a side note- did you know you can shop at TJ Maxx online now?  I had no clue, but you can!! I was actually able to give a direct link to my vest.
