Okay so here’s a BlogHer fashion and party recap. If you want the humor recap about vibrators and breasts - you can read this BlogHer recap. There’s nothing about fashion there. Trust me.
Here’s what I wore:
On the plane flying to NYC (okay this picture is not actually from Thursday – it’s from last September but I forgot to take a picture of myself so I found this one)
What you will find in this recap is that I tried to be good wear/shop my closet without buying a lot of new. Seriously it’s so hard to be good. Anyway – this dress is from Matilda Jane Clothing and I’ve had it forever.
I had 20 minutes to change once I got to my room for the SocialLuxe party and then onto the AMAZING CAbi Style Suite(which was awesome) and then I ended the night at the BlogHer People’s party. This is what I wore…
It’s a brown strapless cotton dress from JCrew. It’s so amazing AND it even stays up on my 32A boobs! I wore these stunning and such fun shoes from Fossil from 6PM. My bag is Louis Vuitton and was my 40th birthday present. OMG am I over 40? How did that happen. Gold belt is from Target.
The next morning I went to lunch with this amazing group of women. Seriously I was so honored to be included(Amy, Kristen, Ann, Me, Maggie, Heather, Ellie, Katherine)
As you can see I wore my Anthropologie Bicycle dress which I just adore! I wore it the whole day for the conference sessions I attended as well as to a fabulous Microsoft luncheon with 5MinutesForMom.
I then went back to my room to freshen up and changed into THE dress – remember THE dress that I bought. Well I wore it and LOVED it and received many compliments.
So I guess I’m not all that old after all. That night I went to a fabulous event hosted by MomTrends and Zutano, then listened to BlogHer’s Voices of the year, and then had a wonderful dinner hosted by MommyShorts and UrbanSitter. I tried to go to the Hasbro party but it seemed completely cray-cray so I smartly headed back to BlogHer for Listen To Your Mother and some Sparklecorn!
The next conference day I wore the Spearmint dress from Matilda Jane Clothing and it was such a great choice. It’s super comfortable and cool and doesn’t wrinkle. It was so comfortable that I didn’t even change for the evening parties. I think by Saturday night I was just exhausted. I had a great Saturday attending Getting Gorgeous, the Dodge event, Lands End Back to School event(which was amazing) and then I headed back to the hotel for BlogHer’s amazing Come as You Are party which was hosted by The Mouthy Housewives and Aiming Low. Followed by the most amazing fashion show ever. May I just say that the fashion show was my favorite BlogHer sponsored event of the weekend. So well done, full of energy, actual good food and FASHION! I hope they do this every year!
Early Sunday morning I caught my flight…
I wore a ruffle dress from Garnet Hill which I love and is so comfortable yet flirty. I wore it with a cute black belt from Anthropologie. It was hard to say good-bye to BlogHer but oh so fabulous to see my kids again.
Linking up with the Pleated Poppy for What I Wore Wednesday.
Can you please be my personal shopper and pick out my outfits every day?

Ha! I would love that!
Love anything Garnet Hill but truly love THE DRESS.
A stunner.
Alexandra recently posted..BlogHer’12 Re-Entry
Thank you! I truly do love it too. And yes, Garnet Hill is always a win!
If I was skinnier, I’ll rob your closet,
You’re gorgeous.

I remember seeing you in that green dress! I was behind you on the escalator and thought, “Oh I love that!” I just posted my WIWW to Blogher too.
The ruffle dress is my favorite though. It is so frilly but wonderful. Glad you had fun!

Thank you, Vicky! Off to check your post out too! (and yes I’m like a week behind still..lol)
I love your dresses. And I love that you wear dresses so often. Honestly, you have insired me to start adding more dresses to my wardrobe. I am on the hunt for my first one right now. I always avoided them because I thought it would be impractical with young children around all the time, but obviously it isn’t!
That one shoulder dress is fabulous!! Thank goodness you bought it
I think the ruffle skirted one you flew home in is my favourite though. I have a thing about ruffles, and yet I own none
Stephanie recently posted..Learning to Simplify Through Purging
I love ruffles – you need some. Glad you are inspired to buy some dresses. I live in them – as you can see. lol
ok, that last dress? the garnet hill one? i just bought on sale for $19!!!!! woot! you looked so put together the whole time, Tracy. Loved everything you wore!
erin margolin recently posted..Falling in Love
You will love the GH dress! Such a steal!
I love your taste in dresses — they are just so much more comfortable than jeans and make you look much more put together. Now I’m considering hinting about your birthday birthday present to my hubby — it was your 30th, right?
Kerry Ann @Vinobaby’s Voice recently posted..Those Days Go By
Yes – you totally deserve a LV!
THE dress! You were hot as hell in THE dress. And I got mah leg grinded on in THE dress, so now it’s broken in (and that twit of a salesgirl knows no better).
From now on, The dress will be called the leg humping dress. Amen.
You are the cutest.
Alex@LateEnough recently posted..MWF Seeking Perfection
No, YOU are. And you look hot in jeans. Which makes me jealous. xo
Love THE Dress! And your shoulders looked AH-MA-ZING in it, too.
Oh hell, who am I kidding? All your outfits were adorable. I also loved the one you wore home on the plane.
Kristin @ What She Said recently posted..I’ve Got the Beat
Thank you, gorgeous! xo
you always look so cute – and i love the louis!!
Amanda B. recently posted..Just a little of this and that…
I must say, the picture of “THE dress” doesn’t do it justice. You absolutely rocked it.
John recently posted..Where I get all mushy about being a father
Aw, thank you. And getting to meet and hug YOU while I was wearing the dress was a highlight!!
I love, love, love your style and all the awesome outfits that you wear. Now, please get on a plane and come help me… bring the kids too… they’ll be entertained by mine or vice versa.
Oh I would love to do that! Thank you!
You are a fashion inspiration, truly.

You can style my closet ANY day! So pretty!
Kat recently posted..Westfield Back To School Shopping Spree
WOW. Sorry I didn’t get to meet you but, sounds like you were busy. Love the J.Crew brown number. Oh I love every single dress you’re showing. One question: how did you cope with that air conditioning? I was huddled under a shawl the whole time.
I know – those rooms were cold! I had a sweater or scarf that I carried with me for sure!
love all your looks. makes my new york self think i should wear something besides black one of these days.
Anna recently posted..Old Photo Friday: The Yellow Bikini
Oh seriously I wear so much black! It has been fun this year to really try to branch-out and add more color to my wardrobe!
Gorgeous!! I love the look on your face in the elevator sunday morning more than anything though!
that one shoulder dress is the dreamiest. must. have. that.

Ha! yes it’s my 6am and now I have to leave this place look. xo
You look amazing and I love all your outfits. I’m just so sad I never saw you!
Brittany recently posted..Gangnam Style is My Style Baby
I’m still confused on how we never hooked-up?
uh…that dress is totally not too old for you. I don’t even get why you asked. Or what the hell was wrong with that stupid-ass sales girl.
You looked fab!
Cheryl @ Mommypants recently posted..Kool-Aid Kid
Holy cow your outfits are amazing! No wonder you got a lot of compliments! My fave is the strapless JCrew dress – just stunning.
Jodi recently posted..What I Wore Wednesday
Thank you! Seriously I do love that dress.
You are adorable in every dress. How do you do that?
the mama bird diaries recently posted..i think i may need a new plumber
Gorgeous as usual! That dress is completely appropriate. Your arms aren’t flabby and it’s not too short. You’re blessed that you can pull off any look. Take that back: You’d look terrible in a muumuu.

Note to self: Toss muumuus.
The red dress looks amazing. The necklace is perfect with it. You looked great!
Nicole recently posted..Disney Cars Land {in pictures}
Oh my I love so many of these…it’s hard to pick a favorite. Those Fossil shoes are absolutely phenomenal! So cute! It’s a tie for me between the Anthro bicycle dress and red one-shoulder dress…wow that is stunning on you!
I think I might have to hire you as my personal dresser–you have such great taste! And I have none! You think I’m kidding! I’m not! I can’t stop using exclamation points!
It was so great finally meeting you. xxoo
Oh you looked amazing every time I saw you. And yes meeting you was so incredible!!!
It should be illegal to look as good as you did all week!

You are just so stinking cute. Love the outfits, especially THE dress.

Okay, each of those outfits is more gorgeous than the last, but now I’m off to find that Garnet Hill dress, because I am seriously in love with it.

Seriously, how cute are you? Glad you had a lovely time at Blogher!
Julia recently posted..All Birds Go To Heaven
You looked fantastic! And I LOVE, LOVE that bicycle dress. Loved it at Type A too….such a fun dress for summer and a great cut too. And the one shoulder dress – so hot on your mama!
Nicole @MTDLBlog recently posted..Quotes to Live By {Listable Life}
Okay, I’m here!
You may not know this, but I’m Gay. And as a Gay man, I feel compelled to point out all your flaws. But as a fellow Mommy-Blogger, I have no choice but to let you know that you look fantastic. See how torn I am! Don’t you pity my situation? It’s hell!
Anyway, I guess I’m like everyone else in saying that I do Love that little orange number too. Had I gone, that’s what I would have worn. Wouldn’t that have been embarrassing? But mostly for you because I would have rocked the shit out of it!
Okay, I’m done here.
Bring on Astrid!
Your Friend, m.
Mark recently posted..Sit! Good girls!
I love when you go all ‘mommy-blogger’ on me. But let’s discuss my flaws sometime over wine please.
The orange dress was my favorite until I saw that Garnett Hill dress and omg you wear that when flying? I was one level of cotton above yoga pants.
Jessica recently posted..Sisterhood of grief
I know – well I started flying back in the olden days – you know when Jesus still flew and back them we always dressed up to fly and now I just cannot help myself..so I always dress-up and make my kids dress-up too. Weird. I know but I just cannot help myself.
