Mom Style is back! Well, sort of. I haven’t posted one of these in ages, mostly because I still have no idea how to get shots of myself without a helpful assistant on hand. So instead, I decided to use what I have, a tripod and my lovely assistant Lulu, who provided ample laughs and blurry craziness. Hooray!
I’m part of a group of cute ladies who I meet for dinner once a month (the official title is the “Sassy Supper Club”…oh yes it is) and last week we celebrated the holidays one month late because we were all too crazy in December to get together. We decided to do a nail polish exchange, which is a fun, cheapish way to do gifts with a group of girls that I highly recommend. We ate out at Louie’s Wine Dive and I was thoroughly impressed with not only the food (lobster mac and cheese!), but the bourbon cocktail menu. A good time was had by all.
I sometimes struggle with what to wear to stuff like this, since, as a working mom, I feel like all of my clothes are either business casual or sweatpants. I’m sure you understand. And since I’m on a tight budget, high end pieces won’t work for me. I threw this outfit together and think it turned out pretty cute!
Glasses: Warby Parker
Sweater: Forever 21
Chambray Button Down: Nordstrom (in the juniors section…way better prices)
Jeans: Mossimo via Target
Shoes: Vintage

Today is the day! I’m leaving for my first ever blogging conference, Altitude Design Summit, in Salt Lake City. I’ve attempted to explain Alt to people that aren’t in the blog/design world and they just shake their heads at me like I’m a crazy person. While they could think I’m nuts for lots of reasons, I think trying to verbally state what Alt is all about and how big of a deal it is isn’t the easiest task. Let’s put it this way, at least five speakers I’m planning to see have been some of the my biggest influences in my life during the past six years. Imagine meeting the people that inspired your life’s work and getting advice from them in person. Next imagine sponsors and brands that you’d die to work with (think Martha Stewart, Honest, Blurb, Minted, Land of Nod, Citizens of Humanity…and on and on) giving you unprecedented access. Finally, imagine me, hiding in a corner and attempting to phase out an anxiety attack! Got it? Great!
Trent and I took these Myers-Briggs personality tests a while back (when I was trying to decide if working for him was a great idea, ha!) and I was a bit surprised with my type when I first read it. I’m an INFJ (Introverted Intuition with Extraverted Feeling), which apparently only make up about one percent of the population. I have never really thought of myself as introverted, but I suppose it’s true. Due the nature of my day job, I have always had to be out and about, talking to people and attending social events, but I’ve never been truly comfortable at it. I’d much rather be behind my computer, where I have more control over the conversation and I’m less likely to say something dumb (okay…that’s debatable). Alt Summit is basically a three day intensive in socializing and learning, and while I couldn’t be more excited, I know that it will be challenging. I’m so fortunate that I’ll be staying with my good friend Nicole of Petit Soul, and that she is attending the conference as well. It will be nice to see a friendly face amongst all those strangers.
So wish me luck, Crazybananas readers! I will be posting lightly for the rest of the week, and will hopefully be back in action with a ton of Alt Summit posts next week. Thanks as always for your support, I couldn’t do any of this without you!!!
