DownEast Basics and Vintage Rose Wraps for SoFabCon

disclosure

I just returned home from an amazing few days in Arkansas for SoFabCon, the Collective Bias Social Fabric conference.  I spent time with friends and made many new connections.  I’ll share more on all the fun I had later.  Leading up to the conference I was focused on what I was planning to wear.  It should come as no surprise that I shopped at one of my favorite stores, DownEast Basics, to find the perfect outfit for Saturday.

Shopping was fun and I found a few favorites.  I love that everything I purchased can be worn so many different ways.

For the actual conference, I ended up choosing the first outfit.  I added a Vintage Rose Wrap headband to complete the look.

Earlier in the week I put together a fun Arizona themed treat bag for my roommates.  Each bag was filled with a Vintage Rose Wrap headband, a scorpion sucker, and Arizona chocolate nuggets.  My roommates loved the headbands.

Vintage Rose Wraps has a soft place with me because Arizona is their home.  I’m a longtime fan and could wear their headbands every day!  Connect with Vintage Rose Wraps on Facebook and Twitter.

Discloure: I received a gift card from DownEast Basics to purchase clothing for the conference.  I also received complimentary headbands from Vintage Rose Wraps for myself and my roommates.  All opinions are my own.

It’s no secret that I love DownEast Basics.  The comfort and versatility in their clothes is great for me because I’m always on the run.  Comfort and style are important, but being a frugal mommy makes quality a top priority.  The very first time I shopped there I purchased a short sleeved cardigan and jeans.  They have been through my washing machine hundreds of times and are still in excellent condition.

Last year I wore my cardigan on picture day at school.  I was working at the same school my daughter attended and we were able to take a cute picture together.  It’s definitely one of my favorite photos of us!
