Are you going to the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration? Â I was lucky to attend four! Â After four years of packing, planning and shopping, last year I felt like I got it right for the whole trip. Â This year the conference is in California, instead of Florida, so it might be a bit different, but I wanted to share what worked for me. Â Best advice is to pack your sense of fun, because you are going to have a great time! Â Dress comfortably and true to your own style – if you’re there, it’s because someone thinks you are pretty successful!
This was my favorite outfit and I wore it the first day/evening, a maxi-dress and shrug. Â One of the reasons that I loved it was that it was appropriate for day or evening. Â The little shrug sweater worked for cooler evening weather or inside air conditioning. Â Without the sweater, it was perfect for outdoors, warmer days. Â A maxi-dress is so versatile AND comfortable. Â I received many compliments and one blogger even had the same dress, but in different colors. Â I think that is the sincerest form of flattery when someone wears the same thing. Â I picked up this dress at J C Penney, but lots of stores carry them. Â The colors were fun (the lime green) and serious (the navy blue) and provided a good contrast. Â I packed a lot of blue outfits – I always like wearing blue in warmer climates. Â The fabric of this particular maxi-dress, even allowed me to wash it in the bathroom sink at the room. Â We stayed several days after the end of the conference, so I was able to wear it again.
 Here I am wearing it without the sweater shrug at Epcot… 
…Â and again at an event, this time with the shrug. Â It was fun meeting Mr. Incredible! 
Next up is what I wore on conference day. Â People were dressed along the whole spectrum from very casual to business to formal. Â I personally am more comfortable in a professional, nicer outfit and this one fit my needs perfectly. 
Here I am with my tablemates – you can see what everyone wore on conference day! 
Here I am meeting one of the speakers. 
 A must-have for me was a white, gauzy long-ish skirt.  It went with so many things and felt perfect in any situation. 
On this occasion I paired the white skirt with a black and white top. Â I’m always fighting my weight and it’s comfortable to wear the loose tops over a tank top for me. 
I hope they are having a fun run this year! Â It was a life-changer for me last year. Â Read about it here. Â Don’t forget to pack your running gear! 
And don’t forget to pack for the kids! Â I picked up a collection of clothes so they would all be mix-and-match.
For a complete packing list, check out this post. Â Be sure to read the comments because readers added some things I forgot.
Have a blast! Â I’ll be following along on social media!
Great advice Kelly! I am a firm believer in comfort – especially with the shoes. Love this post.
Thanks, Leanne!
Great tips! Thanks for sharing! I think I have some shopping to do before the conference!
Enjoy every minute :)
