Advice Needed

Please help me select an outfit for BlogHer10. I'm torn between these three looks:

Look #1 (haute couture)





Look #2 (accessories included)






Look #3 (Too much?)

Announcements:

This Friday July 23, at 10am I am proud to join acclaimed author and journalist Shannon Henry from Cooking With Friends to talk about all things bloggy LIVE on The Veronica Ruekert show on Wisconsin Public Radio's Ideas Network. Find your local Wisconsin station or info about live streaming HERE.

Also..

As many of you know, BlogHer announced their Voices of The Year Community Keynote on Monday. I am especially proud of my bloggy BFF--the stunning and talented Amy Bitchin' Wife (also my BlogHer roomie past and present), and Marinka (humor blogging genius) both selected to read their entries at the conference! My post "What to Expect: Your first Blogiversary" was chosen as a Geeky/Nerdy finalist...See. Photos. Above.

  1. Definitely go for the bunny ears.

    Kudos to you all at blog her, make sure you keep the rest of us in the loop with fun inside stories.

  2. It has to be the Bunny ears. I can't wait to hear you on the radio, it'll be like listening to an old friend. Any chance of channelling my fave girl?

    HUGE congratulations, and you are really doing so many awesome things. I know it feels good.

  3. I am partial to any outfit that includes pumpkin guts. Now I'm extra sorry that I'm not going to Blogher this year. I love to dress up!

  4. Did I give you my hand-me-downs? I think I had a few of these in my closet. If it were me-I would go with the puffy shirt and tight red leggings in the pumpkin pic-timeless. You will definitely standout at BlogHer10.

  5. Red pants and pumpkin guts. Without a doubt.

  6. It's a tough decision. But the floppy ears & Speery topsiders are hard to beat.

  7. I think everyone will be wearing red pants and patchwork jackets - so if you really stand out the rabbit ears are your best bet.

  8. As long as you will bring a pumpkin or at least goopy, sticky pumpkin hands, I'd go with look #2. And now I'm stressing about my outfits even more because animal ensembles weren't even in my consideration set.

  9. Bunny ears and boatshoes really epitomize today's writer, I think.

  10. Holy mother. If WERN doesn't podcast this, I will cut a bitch. Maybe five bitches.

  11. Red is so hot. Go for red pants. Ha!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Even without the bunny ears, the jacket is a must! Is Sparklecorn going 80's again?
    Have a great time at BlogHer 10! Wish I was going!

  13. This might be my favorite post ever. (how many times do I say that? I'm quite fickle when it comes to your blog...) I especially like the tag line...

    And the bunny ears FER SHURE! Those bloggy ladies love a good rabbit.

  14. Definitely the frilly blouse and bright red pants look, so Stepford Wives :-)

  15. Fantastic that you were chosen a Geeky/Nerdy finalist. I love it! My mom always told me that being a nerd would come in handy some day. Can't wait to listen to the radio show. Food and blogging? Yes, please.

  16. I like the haute couture look. Though haute couture AND a Voices of the Year award might make everyone think you're all uppity.

    (This is timely, by the way, in that I am heading to BlogHer for the first time this year and just starting to freak out about what to wear. I do appreciate your above suggestions.)

  17. What? You can't rock all of that at the same time?
    You're not even trying anymore Ann...

    Congrats to all presenters and finalists, good on ya:)

    Peace ~ Rene

  18. Wait, we're not wearing togas this year?

    DAMMIT.

    (Can't wait to see you!!)

    XO

    A.

    P.S. And congrats on being a finalist. I heart nerds.

  19. I think look three will set you apart from the crowd. In a good way, of course.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I like the pumpkin defiling get up. And ooooh! look at those bikes behind you. I spy Ape Hanger handles!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I think the top one, but with something orange in your hair. Maybe a big hat?

    Cheers!

  22. I'm thinking #2. I have heard ruffles and skinny jean are very "in right now." How cuttin edge you were/are!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Yeah, I didn't proof that comment before hitting post.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Why has no one selected look #1? I sported a similar calico-jean vomit explosion back in the day and, as you know, it really makes you stand out.

    Good luck at BlogHer! Wish I were could be there instead of discovering what makes the two's so terrible.

  25. With 3#, you could have won that Energizer contest!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Pumpkin Slime goes with everything. That's my vote.

    And who--hoo on your recognition.

  27. I am always partial to ruffles.

    Congrats on your NPR gig. You are perfect for them.

  28. Love the haute couture, you could really work that look today!

    Great and good luck with Blogher, you are in such fine and dandy company, Ann - Many congratulations to you and long may it continue x

    ReplyDelete
  29. Congrats! How exciting. Can't wait to hear how Blog Her goes - many pics, please!

  30. I think a lovely combo of the ears and pumpkin guts will TOTALLY rock the house.

    and I am so happy for you- and it couldn't happen to a NICER !@)#*&.

  31. The first one is by far my favorite.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Was very happy to see your name there under "Geeky". Yes, geeky, but adorably so.

    And I'd go multi-colored top. But only if you keep your arms in that position throughout the conference.
