We're Going To Britmums Live!

Well it's that time of year again - next weekend I will be heading off to Britmums Live thanks to my lovely sponsors Purflo who are so kindly providing my accomodation & ticket to the conference for which I am so very grateful. Although I attended Britmums last year, I went with some of my closest blogging friends who I met beforehand and went in with so it felt much less intimidating - this year I am going alone which terrifies me! I am taking Noah along with me too, so I can always talk to him I suppose haha! But I am very nervous about being a bit of a loner in the corner - everyone seems to go in groups to these things!

Name: Hayley McLean (and baby Noah will be coming along too!)

Blog: Sparkles & Stretchmarks

Twitter ID: @Sparkles_Blog

Height: 5’9"

Hair: Long, blonde

Eyes: Blue

Is this your first blogging conference?: No, I went to Britmums last year for the first time - but I'm still as nervous as the first time, if not more so!

Are you attending both days?: Yep!

What are you most looking forward to at BritMums live 2015?: Hopefully getting to mingle with some lovely bloggers, learning more about the areas of blogging & vlogging I'm not so hot on (So most of them!) and just getting the chance to be around like minded people!

What are you wearing?: Noah!! As for clothes....I currently have absolutely NO idea!!! I'm thinking some kind of long top and leggings or jeggings for Saturday, and possibly something slightly dressier for Friday to avoid having to change in the toilets again for the evening like last year as I have a nice dinner to go with my Sponsor after the awards so I need to try to look halfway decent!

What do you hope to gain from BritMums LIVE 2015?: New friendships would be lovely, stronger friendships with those I've already met, and lots more knowledge & inspiration!

Do you have any tips to pass on to others who haven’t been before?: Arrange to meet with someone or a group of people as I personally found the registration quite daunting - plan out which talks you want to attend in advance and don't forget to allocate some time to wander around the brand den and mingle too! Wear comfy shoes, take a portable phone charger if possible and don't forget a notebook & pen as you're likely to want to make notes in the sessions!

I'm so excited about attending again this year, and I really hope to meet & mingle with as many fellow bloggers as possible - if you see me PLEASE come and say hello! I know everyone says it but I REALLY do want to meet as many people as possible, and I'm very friendly - although I am also super shy about approaching people myself!!! Haha!
