mom 2.0 summit + wardrobe crisis.

As you read this I am likely flying right over Arizona on my way to Houston to attend Mom 2.0 Summit. I’m probably ordering a diet coke, or a diet dr. pepper if I get really fancy, hold the ice. I hope I’ll be reading the most current People Magazine because, frankly, I haven’t had time to catch up on current events {read: celebrity drama} for weeks, and I feel a little out of touch.

I’m lucky enough to be sponsored by several lovely companies which I’m really excited to share with you over the length of the weekend, and beyond. I’m especially excited about my Mom 2.0 Summit wardrobe, provided by Shade Clothing whose new spring line is too cute for words.

Since my husband won’t play dress-up with me anymore, I’m counting on your humble opinion{s} for my choice of conference wear. Keep in mind that while it’s 20 degrees and dropping in Utah, Houston has promised several 60 degree days in a row, so my spring clothing choices shouldn’t be out of place one bit. I hope. What do you think?



Day 1: I’m planning on the pleated jacket with this tee, these jeans, and black peep toe pumps. Accessorized with some great chunky jewelry that has as of yet to be picked out of my closet. But I’m pretending it’s tomorrow, so actually, it’s done, and it’s fabulous.

Ring Print
$32.50

Day 2: The 3/4 scoop neck in Jade {which feels like buttah on my skin} with the A-Line skirt. Which, by the way, is a dynamite combo. Although my husband is tired of hearing it and really doesn’t even care anymore. I’ll probably wear the same heels as day 1, with similar jewelry.

4-Pleat Dress
Royal Purple
$58.50

Day 2: Evening. There’s a bit of a Carnivale! party, so I’m going to wear this fabulous dress. Same heels, chunky jewelry. Same song, different verse.

Day 3: {plane ride home} Jeans, my new favorite buttah tee {in white}, and silver ballet flats. Accessorized with some lovely nightshades for sure, perhaps topped off with a pair of high-quality earplugs.

What do you think? Did I fare well even without the benefit of real-life help from girlfriends? Husbands are no fun in that department, boo.

    Super super cute. I love the jade shirt– it’s such a pretty color! You need to find shoes that color to go with the skirt– they would POP.

  2. KJ :

    most excellent choices. I envy! let me know how that dress fits…I’ve been eyeing it. I also think metallic heels would be cute with any of the outfits. you’ll look smashing!

  3. Donna :

    My hubby’s pretty useless when it comes to helping me match outfits. I think you did great and will look great at the conference!

  4. Deborah :

    You did great! When you’re done with your wardrobe, want to send it my way…?:)

  5. Kim :

    You will look FANTABULOUS! I am so excited that you get to go. I was supposed to go, won the registration, but then hubby thought he was going to have to go out of town for work. Found out last week that he doesn’t, but then I didn’t have enough time to come up with the moolah. Blah.
    But wait, this is about YOU not me, you will look great! I love all of your options.
    I totally need to get me some more Shade clothing. I have a cami and I adore it!

  6. Camilla :

    I really like the jacket.

  7. Kim :

    Well done! And it was nice meeting you at Mom2.0!

    I was admiring the jade top and black-and-white ring skirt on the first day of Mom 2.0. Now I know the story behind that fabulous outfit! I love that the price point is reasonable, too — I would have expected it to be higher. Will definitely check out the Shade website!

  12. Misty Khan :

    You looked great – especially loved the skirt with the interlocking chain design!

    You looked cute in those clothes! Thank you for the Shade tee. I’ve loved wearing it. It’s not like most t-shirts you pick up at conferences. It’s more like the $100 ones at Saks. And, it kept it’s nice shape after washing. What more can you ask for?
    It was great meeting you.
