I got back from Dallas Sunday and since I flew thru Charlotte I decided to stay and spend the night so  I could celebrate my nephew’s third Birthday.  Between the party and snuggling with Sterling and Frances who I missed dearly I didn’t have time to do a post yesterday.  So, today I wanted to share some pics from my Dallas trip this past weekend.    As I mentioned before this is my third year going for this blogger conference.  It is always an excellent time!

I flew out and roomed with Caycee and Ashley who are two of my good friends here in Charleston.  We had a celebratory glass of wine pre-flight!

Thursday night was a fun rooftop pool party.  The pool at The Joule (were we stayed) is one of the most beautiful pools.

I am wearing Mara Hoffman Dress (on sale)

Friday morning we ordered room service.  When I am out of town room service is my guilty pleasure.   This breakfast sandwich was crazy good.

I wore this off shoulder Rebecca Taylor dress for meetings that day.

We snuck away to Neiman Marcus for a little lunch and shopping.  I love the flagship Neiman Marcus in Dallas.  The food is delicious at the Zodiak Restaurant on the 6th floor there.

I had the Shrimp Salad and it was awesome.  I love the idea of adding in quinoa to a salad, I am planning to try this at home!

That night they had a big party at The Eye.

The Eye is always such a cool setting for a party. I loved all the white paper globes they hung up everywhere.

Saturday I wore this white macrame blouse with jeans for our partial day of meetings.

A close up of the details.

We tried to get in some pool time but after about an hour and a half it turned rainy and chilly so we had to to head in.  But we did get to enjoy one cocktail and a fun lunch rooftop!  I was lucky enough to snag this swimsuit half off during a flash sale and it is one of my favorites.  The fit is awesome.

The Joule has the cutest store that I love to stop in when I am in town.  I loved these giant balls, they would be so cool in a play room.

Happy hour spread in our room while we got ready for the party that night.

Saturday night was a white party held at the Opera House.  

I can’t say enough great things about this dress, I just adore it.  It also comes in black and runs TTS.

Dress | Earrings are Moon and Lola but not online yet | Purse

We ended up getting stuck in the hotel elevator on our way to head to the party.   Luckily it was only about 15 minutes or I would have had a full on panic attack!  This sweet man helped get us out!

A view of the party walking in.  It was a really cool setting.

Sunday it was back to reality and time to head home.  I always enjoy the conference weekend but by Sunday I am missing my family like crazy!  

This Barrington tote is a favorite I always travel with.  The size is perfect to use as your carry on in the airplane because it slides right under the seat.  I usually carry this and then a smaller purse inside with my wallet etc.

Thankful I was able to get to my nephew Finley’s birthday party Sunday night!  My dad picked me up at the airport and we went straight to his party.  I was exhausted but so happy to be back safely and with my family.
