In a New York State of Mind at the IFB Conference

After waking up at an ungodly hour on Thursday, I trekked up to New York to attend the IFB Evolving Influence fashion blogger conference at the Hudson Hotel. I didn't need any convincing to go and it was an extremely informative and fun event. I met some great bloggers, including some that I only know through the computer screen. I want to share a few pictures from the event.

Gala Darling was so adorable in her outfit, a funny speaker and has the cutest accent.

Emily of Cupcakes and Cashmere is one of my daily reads and looks just as lovely in person.

Delmy of Fashion Bananas is just as glamorous in person, so friendly and super tall!

I snuck in some time out on the streets to take in the sights and sounds of one of my favorite cities and didn't realize how close I was to where the real deal action was taking place.

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center!!!!!!

I'm 98% sure that this is Kelly Bensimmon from the Real Housewives of NY!!!


One of my favorite things is to people watch and I was in awe of the sky high Louboutin's this lady was wearing. She's my idol because sometimes 3.5 inches is a bit much for me. :)

I'm already planning my next trip back and I think I'm going to center it around this:

Were you able to attend the conference? Are you a lover of New York City?
