BlogHer 2014 was beyond words. Great stories, great people, fabulous fashion and tons of inspiration.

Seriously, I’m so glad that I went!
It was my first time in San Jose. What a gorgeous place!

On Thursday night, I hit up the Eppa sangria party. It was toasty out but the sangria was nice. I took a selfie with Stacy, the founder of Blogalicious!

On Friday, the conference kicked off with a newbie breakfast. From there, the fun only continued. Here are a few of my favorite moments:

Kerry Washington

Yes, the Olivia Pope live in the flesh graced us with her presence during a much anticipated keynote. I admire Kerry for not talking about her family and private life. It’s nice to have a celebrity that draws the line between work and personal life. She spoke with blogger Demetria Lucas of A Belle in Brooklyn about her life, work and Scandal fashion. I’m even more excited about the Scandal collabo with The Limited happening this fall.
Alie and Georgia
While charging my phone at the WIFI Family booth. I found out about a cool event happening at the NesCafe Dolce Gusto booth in the expo. I ended up enjoying a great cocktail creating demo from the duo. It was my first time learning about Alie and Georgia, but I’ll definitely be following them for drink and party inspiration.

Aren’t they the cutest??
I love the vintage dresses, glam hair and eye makeup. They served us this great cocktail with lavender simple syrup, grapefruit juice and lemon flavored Smirnoff. So yummy. I will be making it for poolside enjoyment before the summer ends 😉 I remained caffeinated with the help of the Chai tea from the lovely ladies at the booth all weekend!
Rev Run
Rev Run put on a show for us at the McDonald’s closing party. I enjoyed a happy meal and even tried McDonald’s strawberry smoothie. Then we all jumped around to tunes by Kanye West, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Run DMC of course right at the front of to the stage during a hyped playlist from the Rev.

The Multi Culti Suite
I got there first and ended up winning a copy of Ananda Leeke’s latest book Digital Sisterhood! Can’t wait to read it.
Goldieblox Suite
I enjoyed the Goldiblox Suite on Friday night. Candy, cocktails and building things all go well together. I heard about Goldieblox after seeing the funny commercials. I like how they are encouraging women to get into building things.

I’m having a great time connecting with other conference attendees through these recap posts. Did you attend BlogHer? Let me know in the comments so that I can check out your recap! Have you ever attended BlogHer?
