It’s funny how life surprises you. I would have laughed in disbelief a year and a half ago if someone had told me that I would be heading to New York City in 5 days to attend the Independent Fashion Bloggers Conference and Fashion’s Night Out.
I would have thought: “Why on earth would I need to attend Evolving Influence? No one even visits my blog!” and “Fashion’s Night out is something I read about, not something I actually participate in!”
Fast forward to 2011 and here I am, getting ready for my first IFB Conference and FNO, with a touch of New York Fashion Week thrown in for good measure.
As excited as I am about the events themselves, the thing that is truly making me giddy with anticipation is the thought of meeting so many of the people that have become a part of my life through their blogs. They inspire me daily through their words, their passion, their courage and their style… and now they will finally become more than faces/voices on the other side of a computer monitor. They will finally be real.
It’s almost too much too handle. In a good great “I want to hug everyone when I see them” sort of way.
If you haven’t already, please let me know if you will be in NYC for the conference or FNO.
I’d love to meet you!
P.S. If you are still debating about attending IFBCon, the conference is currently SOLD OUT but you can add your name to the wait list here. This is sure to be the best one yet!
