As some of you know I spent the past weekend in Chicago at the annual BlogHer conference. It was a lot of fun … I feel like I might need to sleep for about a week but definitely worth it! Here are some tips and must haves if you plan on attending in 2014.

– Defiantly stay at the official conference hotel. We would come back to our room everyday to find cute little packages from various people and brands. The bag from Steve Harvey was my absolute favorite. It had a little note from him and also a mustache that you were supposed to take photos with and use hash tag #steveharveyblogher2013 and also mention him on Twitter at @IAmSteveHarvey.

– Make sure that you purchase your tickets with the advance purchase option. It was about half the cost and at only $200 for almost 3 days of conference sessions, not to mention an invite to all the exclusive parties.

– When you check into the hotel ask what floors the parties are going to be located on and request another floor. I was pooped by Saturday night and couldn’t wait to goto sleep but the final party was on my floor and you could hear it loud and clear until about 1am.

– Bring an extra suitcase! You maybe wondering why? I have 1 word for you … SWAG SWAG and more SWAG! This photo of the car should sum it up!

– Business cards are a must … And the amount you think you need to bring should be doubled. I am so happy I put that extra box in my suit case.

Overall I learned a lot about myself and my business – blog. I feel confident in some of the things that I am doing and also have some new ideas I would like to try. Please feel free to email me with any other questions you might have at HUNKSrHANDBAGS@gmail.com

As always, Peace, Love and Tweeting! – tOr
