Hey everyone! It’s that exciting time of the year again—conference season, and we just can’t get enough! So far, we've had an absolute blast attending the Maryland State Conference for the fabulous ladies of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Incorporated and the North Atlantic Regional Conference for the amazing women of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated.
There’s nothing quite like meeting all of you and hearing your thoughts on what you love and what you’re looking for. It's such a joy to see your faces light up when you find that perfect piece that sets your heart on fire! That thrill never gets old, and it’s what keeps us motivated!
Since we’ve been both attendees and vendors these past few weeks, we thought we’d share our essential conference must-haves with you. Check them out, and feel free to let us know if we missed anything!
1. A Conference Bag
A good bag is a game-changer! You need something spacious enough to hold your laptop, snacks, comfy shoes, and all those fabulous finds from the vendors. We love stylish backpacks, but let’s be real—something more practical works best for conferences.
2. Shoes
Bring your favorite heels for the sessions—because we all want to look good! But don’t forget to pack those comfy shoes for racing between meetings. You’ll thank yourself later!
3. Water
Stay hydrated, friends! With all the business and fun happening, a water bottle is a must. It’ll help keep you sharp and ready to take on the day!
4. Snacks
Healthy snacks are your best friend! Look for treats that are easy to pack, quiet to munch on, and won’t leave your hands messy. Energy on-the-go is key!
5. Hand Sanitizer
In today’s world, hand sanitizer is a must-have. You’ll be shaking hands and touching lots of surfaces, so keep it handy to stay fresh!
6. Something to Write With and On
Don’t forget your notebook or planner! You’ll want to jot down those brilliant ideas and notes during sessions. Trust us, you’ll be glad you did!
We’d love to hear from you—did we miss any of your conference essentials? Drop your must-haves in the comments! And while you're at it, check out some of our favorite conference looks.
We can’t wait to see you at our next adventure: the Great Lakes Regional Conference with the ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. Let’s make this conference season memorable, together!
