Hi loves! Today I wanted to share all about my experience at the rewardStyle conference I recently attended in Dallas, TX. Today I’m going to recap my entire trip and share outfit details of what I wore!
For those wondering what the rewardStyle conference is- it’s an invitation only conference where they select top influencers to attend to learn and network with brands and other influencers.
Day 1: Travel Day + Brand/Influencer Networking
Thursday morning was an early flight day for me! I arrived in Dallas around noon, hopped in an Uber, and met two of my roommates, Michelle and Amanda at the hotel! I quickly got ready and changed into this gingham dress! We then made our way to the courtyard at the Hotel Crescent Court (where everyone stayed + where the conference was held) and checked in and got to meet a bunch of other bloggers.
We then went over the the brand networking hall where brands had cute little booths set up where we can introduce ourselves and get to learn about the brands. We also got to meet up with our other roommate, Lauren!

After meeting with a bunch of brands, we then changed and went to the Rooftop Pool Party hosted by Sole Society! So much fun getting to know more bloggers there! After the Sole Society party, a large group of us had dinner at Sixty Vines- it was absolutely delicious!

Day 2: Speakers, Classes, Brand Meetings
This was the first full day and we started off with a bunch of speakers that were all inspirational! We got to hear from Amber Venz Box, President + Co-Founder of rewardstyle, Charlotte Jones Anderson (EVP + Chief Brand Officer, Dallas Cowboys) and a bunch more! It was such a great way to start off the day! We then had a beautiful lunch hosted by Mary Kay.

For the rest of the afternoon, we had classes and brand meetings. I was so happy I got to chat with the Elemis + Express teams. At the brand meetings, I got to share all about Lace & Lashes and learn more about the brands.

Later that night we had a cocktail party hosted by eBay! After the party, Amanda, Lauren and I took an Uber for a late dinner at Mi Cocina. If you go, get the guacamole! It’s sooo good!

Day 3: Meetings, Classes, and Finale Party
Last full day in Dallas was filled with some more classes in the morning followed by a gorgeous lunch hosted by JC Penney! After lunch, I had another class and 2 brand meetings. I got to meet with the Bloomingdales and eBay teams and got to share all about Lace & Lashes. It was so interesting to learn eBay has about 80% brand new items on their site- so I will totally be shopping there! The rest of the late afternoon, we had some free time so I had another photoshoot with a Dallas photographer (you’ll see the pics soon on the blog!)

Later that evening, LIKEtoKNOW.it hosted the finale party. It was absolutely incredible. You can see video on my IG story highlights. There were ballerinas dressed in LIKEtoKNOW.it leotards, swings to take photos, and little rooms all decked out! A group of us had so much fun dancing and it was so sad knowing it was the last night!

Day 4: Travel Day
The past few days flew by and it was bittersweet going home! It was overall an amazing experience and definitely couldn’t believe I actually got to attend! I remember a few years ago it was my goal to get invited to go! I was invited last year but was unfortunately too sick to attend so this year attending was so much more special!
