#WWDMAGIC SOCIAL HOUSE, PANELS, BRAND DISCOVERIES AND MORE

I've had these posts in queue for a few days that turned into a few weeks and I'm so so sorry!

Motherhood is getting busier and busier by the second and my blog has fallen down on the bottom of my to - do list. But I promise that this is only because I'm currently working on a HUGE project at the moment that I will reveal in a few weeks!

So here is my WWDMAGIC recap..Once you walk into central hall you will be greeted by the paintings of J. PIERCE. I will admit that I waved hello to that panel over there. whoops! Anyhow, I remember when he was only using a little space on this concourse and now it's like huge area! Congrats buddy!

I didn't have time to walk this floor this time around because I spent a lot of time in PLAYGROUND & FN PLATFORM.

I participated on a panel on the 1st day with new friends. I gave my opinions about how brands should approach bloggers. Brands really need to learn how to be more personable. We like to receive emails that are written especially for us and not a copy that you wrote to 100 other bloggers. We are friends with each other so we know when we get the same emails! It's a lot of work but totally worth it in the end because you will have genuinely built a relationship with us. Elaine from Fashion Laine mentioned that if you actually tell us something that you specifically saw on our blog that caught your eye.. It will prove that you actually researched us and there is a higher chance that you will get a response from us. We are busy and have other jobs during the day so patience is also important.

WWDMAGIC RECAP - BRAND DISCOVERIES & RECOMMENDATIONS

I can't believe this was my 4th season at WWDMAGIC as an official blogger.

Things were a bit different this year as the social house was run by MATTE BLACK. I had so much fun with them and felt so grateful that I got re-invited to join again. I got to meet many amazing influential bloggers running the scene here in the US and it was another great learning experience for me. I often have to mention this over and over again especially because of the transition of this blog. During the panels, I emphasized that I am not a 'style blogger' but was transitioning from a PARTY & EVENT Fashion Interactive TOKYO blogger to a Fun Motherhood Lifestyle Blogger with a focus on Mini-style fashion inspired by my 2 year old #babyzooey. I realize it now, that maybe this makes it difficult for certain brands to understand me because it's difficult to find photos of me and my personal style...I'm so bad at that..I suppose it's because I like to share what I see and think is cool instead of just 'me'.. I want to work with people who actually 'met' me...Brands always ask how they should approach a blogger.. I always tell them that it's important that they do their research and be personable when they approach us. I would rather someone take the time to dig through my old posts and understand my personality to help them decide if we would be a good fit or not. This is when you can build organic relationships and amazing collaborations. Anyhow, let me introduce (and re-introduce) some brands that caught my eye this season.
