Happy Saturday, loves! Yesterday was Day 2 of the rewardStyle conference here in Dallas and it was a busy but very fun one!
A little recap:
I am rooming with Laura Beverlin and Bailey Swartz and we headed downstairs bright and early to start the day everyone and have an acai bowl and coffee. Right after, everyone who was attending the conference joined together to listen to a review of rewardStyles growth and future plans.
We talked a lot about the new LIKEtoKNOW.it app that launched recently making shopping soooo easy [Do you all have it? If not, download it on your phone. It’s free & makes all my IG pictures shoppable in an instant] and heard some feedback from users. It seems like everyone is over the moon for it! My favorite comment that we heard was, “I love it so much that I hate it”. Haha! Shopping is great but it can be dangerous, right?! We also got to hear Whitney Wolfe, the founder/CEO of Bumble speak and it was so inspiring. Baxter Box, the co-founder and CEO of rewardStyle, closed out the morning by giving us his words of wisdom in his speech “Business behind a Billion”.
Afterwards–we followed the trail of so many (very kind) rS employees that led us to the one and only Shake Shack [yummm!] to grab burgers and fries! The lunch was hosted by Banana Republic and they had the cutest floral arrangements covering the picnic tables. Everything was outdoors and the crinkle fries and cheese dip in combination with the VERY kind and attentive service of the Shake Shack employees made for an A+ break in the day.
Not only did Banana have a photo wall set up where groups of bloggers could grab boomerangs [so fun, right?] but they also had some of their new silk scarves available. I am just dying over this print! We scooted back to the (preeetty) hotel to have some educational sessions for the rest of the afternoon where topics such as brand partnerships, time hacks and tips and SEO were covered.
I did make time to snap a couple quick shots of my outfit for the day. I got this blazer a few weeks ago and I cannot believe how much wear I have gotten out of it already. ps, it’s on sale! [wearing a US 4]
My heels are new and I could not love them more! They have a lower block heel so they are so practical–would be great for work. The pointed toe and slight flare of the heel are what makes this shoe in my opinion! They come in TONS of color options too! [I sized down, per the reviews and got a 7]

Time to do a quick change for the party and grab a much needed glass of champs! Bumble hosted and the bright yellow carpet leading into the party was my favorite little touch. I got this dress a couple weeks back and I was so excited to pull it out to wear. Perfect for a cocktail party with some heels and it would also be so cute worn more casually with your hair up and some earrings (I just got these and I LOVE) and some wedges! I love the the name of the dress is ‘Dream Vaycay Dress’! Silly little things like that always make me like items SO much more. && bonus, I found it on sale for you all here and here! [wearing an xs]
Also–I have totally put these shoes to the test this weekend. Do yourself a favor and get a pair! [runs tts]

And then it was time for an easy, chill dinner. I walked across the courtyard with Emily of Life with Emily, Kate of For the Love of Fancy and Jessica of My Style Vita.We sat outside and let me tell you–the salmon avocado cobb salad and frozen vodka tonic TOTALLY hit the spot! From there it was back to the hotel and getting ready for Day 3 which I cant wait to share with you all again here tomorrow! p.s. the big party is tonight so be sure to follow on IG stories with me, I’ll make sure you all don’t miss a thing!
