What to Take to a Blog Conference: #NaBloPoMo

What to Take to a Blog Conference
If you are going to a blog conference this year, there are a few things that you should take.
1. Comfortable shoes
2. A tablet or some sort of device
3. Business cards and a card holder
4. A sweater. Seriously, I was freezing last year at the Bloggy Conference.
5. A camera
6. A purse or a backpack
7. A pen – for taking notes the old-fashioned way.
8. Sunglasses and a hat for outside events.
9. I take lipstick or lipbalm everywhere. You never know when you’ll need it.
10. Also, a hairbrush. It’s not on here but you might need one anyway.

    Lip gloss/lipstick is a must have no matter where you’re going!

        I currently have 16 in my purse, all relatively the same shade. Hello, my name is Hollie, and I’m addicted to lipgloss.

        Yes. We could start a support group. Lipstick/Lipgloss addicts named Hollie/Holley. 🙂 I bet we could get at least 10 people. lol

    Great list – didn’t you post one before… and that was before you had attended the conference, right? So how does this list differ, now that you’ve attended one, to the other list? I see you added the sweater! 🙂

      I added a sweater. Maybe comfy shoes & lipgloss are new. Sunglasses & a hat are new. The rest might leftover & still necessary. I should add a big smile & outgoing personality. 🙂 🙂

        I always love those lists we make before… and then after! I like to see what was totally not needed vs. what should have been brought! My first camping list was like that! LOL

      There are three that I know of. BlogHer is in New York City in July. Type A Parent is in Atlanta in October. (They also have mini-conferences in New York and North Carolina.) Bloggy Conference is in Sandusky, Ohio at Cedar Point.

        We need to compare, you’ll have to let me know what your favorite kind is, I’m always on the lookout for a good lip-gloss!
