5 Tips to Networking at Events – Austin City Tour with Liketoknow.it

Happy Wednesday everyone! Last week I attended the Austin City Tour for Liketoknow.it and I wore this fun and flirty romper for under $50 at the event. It was such a fun and cute event at the beautiful venue Matties in Austin. If you’ve never been, it’s absolutely beautiful, and they have peacocks roaming freely on the grounds. But the best part about the event was meeting all the wonderful influencers of Liketoknow.it. It was such a great opportunity to finally meet these women who we’ve supported each other and followed through our blogs and social media. I think one of the most important things you can do as a business owner is grow your network and meet new people who could potentially be business partners, supporters, or even clients. Today I am sharing tips on networking at events and more details of what I wore at the Liketoknow.it city tour in Austin below!

Mother’s Day Message: Moms vs Social Media – May Floral Skirt

Happy Monday everyone! Hope everyone had a great Cinco De Mayo weekend! Next weekend is Mother’s Day weekend so I wanted to share the perfect brunch date outfit with the prettiest lace top and floral skirt, but also share a little on what’s been heavy on my heart lately. As we approach Mother’s Day I wanted to talk about an issue so many mother’s face with social media and hopefully how we can all do better to support each other, because moms don’t bring other moms down they support one another. Read more of my thoughts below.

Happy Monday everyone!

Gosh this weekend went by so fast, and this week will go by even faster. It is a busy week for this momma! I’ve got some exciting things coming up including prepping for a church fashion show, going to this fashion show, and then Saturday I have my annual blogger fundraiser benefiting the Children’s Miracle Network at Kendra Scott. If you are in the area you should definitely stop by! I would love to meet you. You can view more of the event details here. Spring has definitely sprung, and with the warmer weather out, the white wide leg trousers are also making a big come back. I can’t get enough of these types of wide leg trouser pants (check out my previous post here and here). And being petite and only 5’2″, I love how much taller they make me look. Check out how I styled these white wide leg trouser pants for spring below.

 TGIF everyone! I can’t believe I survived three days of potty training. Seriously so mentally exhausting being stuck in your home for three days just watching your kiddo like a ticking time bomb. Hahaha but I know it will be all worth it in the end.  You can watch more of my my potty training journey on Snapchat. But back to this embroidered dress and my exciting kid free weekend ahead with the hubs. I can’t get enough of embroidered dress lately, especially this adorable one from Luna Grace Boutique I wore on my trip at the Dreams Playa De Mujeres Resort. It’s the perfect Spring dress/cover up for your next trip to the beach. Check out my favorite embroidered dresses for under $75 below.

The Best Off the Shoulder Dresses for under $50

Top Off the shoulder dresses for under $50

 

Who is ready for the weekend? I know I am! I can’t wait to spend some time at the beach with my family this weekend. This past week I’ve been hooked on a new series on Netflix, Switched at Birth.  I found myself one night up till 4 am in the morning watching the series instead of blogging, or even better yet I should be sleeping lol. This weekend I’ve rounded up some of my favorite off the shoulder dresses, including the one below for under $50! I found this one last year online and it has been one of my favorite off the shoulder dresses. I get tons of compliments on it every time I wear it. I wore it the first time for family pictures in this post last fall, and I love how it transitions  so well for summer! This is the perfect summer dress for a trip to the beach, or BBQ with friends this weekend. Check out my full look and my favorite off the shoulder dresses for under $50!

How to Rock Denim Short Overalls in the Summer

 

How to Rock Denim Short Overalls in the Summer

This weekend I’m looking forward to our annual family trip to Dallas to visit family and support the Texas Rangers. Since Josh’s Uncle got named the manager of the Ranger’s last year, we have become the biggest Texas Rangers fan in Houston. (P.S. We love the Astros too!) We are so excited to visit our family up there and take Jayden to watch the games. He went to his very first baseball game when he was 3 months old last year for opening day for the Rangers. (Visit post here.) One perk about this weekend, due to some amazing blogging opportunities, my hubby, our little guy, and I will be staying the weekend at the Hilton in Arlington, literally minutes from Globe Life Park. We can’t wait to share our experience with you. But first let me share with you one of my favorite trends for the summer, denim short overalls, and how you can rock them!
