Prep work for Blogopolis

I wasn't planning on going to Blogopolis in Sydney. I knew it was on and I was watching the excitement grow.

My dream was to be better prepared, more confident, have a killer wardrobe and go next year.

My husband decided differently, He told me to book a ticket and off he trotted to buy plane tickets for the family and book a hotel. Woo hoo!!

Now I have to rush to fit in the important stuff
1. Visit Lash me for their new Lash extension and a brow shape;
2. Visit Beautiful You for shellac nails and a trim;
3. Go to Chermside and hit the shops for an outfit that screams comfort and confident; and
4. Freak out. I am so nervous with crowds.

  1. What a supportive guy! Since it's only day 1 of school holidays and I've already had enough, feel free to swap with me. I'll go to Blogopolis and be amazing (ly awkward) and you can try and keep clothing on my preschooler. Deal?

  8. Oh Rachel, you are getting your NAILS done? Oh - now that is extra pressure for me!

    Just kidding...

    Tonya {Crafty Mummy} and I are staying at the venue - which is sooooooo amazing! We will be close by if you need someone to hang out with.

    Love that your hubster is so supportive. My hubster is showing his support by taking three children to the Gold Coast for the Marathon Weekend with some friends. He is such a star!

  9. Sweetie stop stressing. I have worked out all you need is a fabulous pair of shoes and all is right in the world. There is nothing a girl can't handle if the right boots are on!

    Oh, and lipgloss. You know which one!!!!
