Last weekend I was lucky enough to attend the Simply Stylist conference here in Chicago at the Dana Hotel & Spa. It was so nice to meet & chat with Wendy of Wendy’s Lookbook, Catt Sadler from E! News, Stephanie Mark the co-founder of The Coveteur, & so many other amazing bloggers. It was inspirational to hear their stories & and refreshing to see how down to earth they all were.

I wanted to wear something classic with a little edge that I knew I would be comfortable in. Meeting so many new people creates so many awkward moments for me & I didn’t want to be pulling on my outfit at the same time!

I chose to rock this black romper that has been a staple in my summer wardrobe for years with a few pieces that had color to spice it up. The romper has little ruffle detailing along the sleeves and a waist tie to cinch it in. These heels are easy to work with since the they’re not too tall & the woven detailing is so fresh. Add a few of my favorite gold accessories from Erin Gallagher & I was set.

I had a fabulous time at the event & it was so great to see friends & meet some new ones (by far my favorite part of blogging) hope you all had a fabulous weekend because I’m still trying to recover from mine…
