#Blogalicious5 Recap & Real Talk

I survived another awesome blog conference!  Blogalicious, the conference that celebrates diversity in the social media community, took over Atlanta last week.  The crazy lady that I am, I wore a few hats during the conference as well as trying to maintain the Baby Shopaholic household since it was in Atlanta.  

The Bag Ladies team (Danielle Erin and myself) held it down as the official social media partner for the conference sponsored by EDEN BodyWorks!  

#BagLadiesLive at #Blogalicious5

Today kicks off the 5th annual Blogalicious Conference!  This year the conference is being held in Atlanta!  WooHoo!  I didn't have to travel ($$$)!  This isn't my first Blogalicious rodeo!  I went two years ago when the conference was held in DC.  I wasn't even a year into blogging when I went but I made some of my greatest connections there.  One of the connections I made was with Bag Ladies Radio creator and producer, Erin.  Since meeting Erin two years ago, I'm now one of her co-host for the Bag Ladies Radio show.  Meeting Erin, led to me meeting my bloggy BFF Danielle from The Style and Beauty Doctor, who was co-hosting the show when I came on as a guest.  See how Gawd works?  I'm telling you guys this story to say that Bag Ladies Radio will be LIVE at Blogalicious 5!

Bag Ladies Radio is the official social media partner for this years Blogalicious!  During the Blogalicious conference the Bag Ladies Radio Team will be hosting a fabulous suite sponsored by EDEN Body Works, FabKids, Lulu*s and Flat Out of Heels.  We will dishing on the fashion scene, speakers, recaps and GIVEAWAYS!  Follow us on twitter with the hashtag #BagLadiesLive and @BabyShopa, @BagLadiesRadio @StyleNBeautyDoc.

I'm looking forward to seeing "old" internet buddies and meeting new ones!  Are you heading to Blogalicious?  Make sure you stop by our suite!

The Dress I've Had Forever

I wanted to share with you guys this awesome dress by Kirna Zabete for Target that I finally wore.  Yeah... it's been in my closet since late fall!  I got it on clearance at Target last November for less than $20.  I don't know what I was waiting for.  I finally pulled it out for my BFFs going away party.

Tales of Singledom: Bag Ladies Recap

If you ladies don't tune into Bag Ladies Radio on Wednesdays you are missing out!  A few weeks ago we dished with Bobbi Thomas (HERE) about retail therapy.  Last week we talked "Tales of Singledom" with Certified Dating and Relationship Coach, Shay "Your Date Diva" Williams!  I know I am not single but I once was!  Regardless, Shay Williams had some great advise!  You can listen to the show HERE!

What I Learned From Bobbie Thomas on Bagladies Radio

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

If you didn't tune in to Bagladies Radio show last night for our Shopping Confessions chat, boy you missed out!  Not only did we all dish about our not so good shopping habits but Bobbie Thomas, style editor of the Today show joined in on the chat as well!  Maj!  Lucky for you, you can listen to the show on demand on Bagladies.com 

During the show, Bobbie shared with us how she loves retail therapy and that every lady should treat herself!  She said that therapy doesn't mean going out and splurging on expensive items.  It could be just a pair of earrings, a scarf or cruising the thrift store!  Something that makes you happy!  I like how this girl thinks!

Bobbie has a new book coming out April 23, The Power of Style!  This book is said to be more than a style guide but more of a "Life" style guide!

Beyond understanding your best colors and figure-flattering clothes, Bobbie takes a unique step back in this inspiring guide to empower you to feel stylish, smart, sexy, and satisfied—with a look that's uniquely your own…

I love Bobbie!  I can't wait to get a copy of the book!  I feel a Book Club coming on.... Who is in?  How do you do "retail" therapy?

Mommies Who Sweat with Syleena Johnson

Last Saturday woke up at the crack of dawn to head to Metroplex in Atlanta to workout with R+B Diva, Syleena Johnson for her Mommies Who Sweat Boot Camp!  I have been a long time fan of the fellow Chi-Town native, Syleena Johnson so I was happy to go!

Syleena and I (and my uni-boob) before the workout began.  Syleena had so much energy!  She participated in all the classes and chatted with the attendees.

What I Wore on the Red Carpet

Saturday, I had an amazing opportunity to be a red carpet correspondent for Bag Ladies Radio at the BET Hip Hop Awards.  Bah-nan-nahs!  I am so grateful for this opportunity.  I was out there to check out the fashions, seeing who was Haute and who was NOT!
