so who heading to ALT SUMMIT next week?   this will be my 3rd year attending and i have to say i’ve learned a thing or two along the way.  for instance . . . what to pack.  if this is your first time, than i hope this photo journal will help give you some ideas.

you’ll need / /

+accessories – you know the stuff the makes the outfit or takes it from one to two outfits.  this is my new favorite necklace!

+polk dots – are always popular (and so are stripes).  this bow ads instant fun to any outfit.

+comfy – is good because every night is like a slumber party.  i’m bringing these.

+shoes – i say bring as many as you can fit.  i always opt for practical and pretty.  my new favorites.

+patterns – are always popular.  you’ll probably see me wearing this shirt.

+school supplies – sort of.  don’t forget your business cards, a notebook, good pen, your camera, iPad or computer and some mints to share with your new friends.  this case keeps things cheerful.

+a dress – or two.  i like going a bit simple and dressing it up.  i’ll be dolling up this dress, with some accessories, for the clue party.

so there you have it.  don’t worry, i’m not bringing all this, but i will be overpacking because i just always do. i guess i like to be over prepared.

what about you friends, do you over pack for trips? or do you plan out every outfit?  i’d love to know.

if you are going to ALT… i’d love to meet you!  and if you’d like to know about any other item pictured, just let me know.
