Last week, I was in Round Top at the Southern C Retreat. It was a gathering of female entrepreneurs from all different industries to learn and connect. I wasn’t sure what to expect because the only conference I’ve attended since starting C. Style was more of an “influencer” type conference, which I don’t really consider myself to be. And I would often come home more confused than before I went. Plus, sometimes being in a room full of women I don’t know is a bit intimidating. So for these reasons, I was a little apprehensive. But this retreat was different! The gals were all so friendly, ready to share, and helpful! It was refreshing! If you’re a female entrepreneur, you have to check out the Southern C!

Before the retreat, they gave us a worksheet to fill out in preparation. They asked us to define our “why”. As in, why are we doing what we are doing? I actually had the time the morning before to sit down and think about this, and here’s what came out of me:
“What is your why?”
To use my personal story and personal experience with my body and clothes to encourage women.
I hope you all feel this from me. If you don’t, I have renewed clarity regarding my why, so hopefully you will start to!
Here’s what I wore while I was there. @Lauren.smith.art (a new friend I met) reminded me that I haven’t done a what to wear to Round Top post in a long time, so here’s what I wore. Although, these outfits are pretty dressy for shopping in the fields, so if that’s your plan, know that you can wear jean shorts and a fun top with boots and a hat and be perfectly dressed!
