Classy ‘Reach For The Stars’ Outfit Ideas for the Problogger Networking Party

In a little under 2 weeks time, Problogger Conference will be on and I CAN’T WAIT!

Every year, the Friday night networking party has a theme and this year it’s ‘Reach for the Stars’.

The theme can be interpreted any which way.

After looking at this thread on the Facebook PBevent page we may see some Star Wars characters and star costumes – taking the theme to the extreme.

If you are like me and want to keep your outfit classy and comfortable I’ve got some tips for you.

Before you grab that glue gun and go crazy with sequins to create a dazzling outfit, why not look in your wardrobe first?

My first thoughts when I read the theme was metallics, sequins and all shades of grey, navy and black.

If the budget is tight and you can’t afford to buy anything new, wear a little black dress and bling it up with some jewellery.

If you do have the funds and want to buy a dress in a block colour, why not consider off the shoulder or a cold shoulder style?

Wear heels that you can stand in all night. For me this may be a wedge or block heel style. If you can’t wear heels, flats are going to be your best bet. You will walk around talking to bloggers and from memory, there has been little seating at most of the venues, possibly to encourage bloggers to mingle.

The night will be a little cool on the coast so having a light jacket or a top/dress with sleeves will keep you comfortable as you network.

I’ve found some pieces that would work for the night if you truly have nothing to wear for the networking party.

Of course if you really want to get into the theme, you could hire a costume and dress us as a Hollywood star. If you do this, beware that I will find you and want to have a selfie taken with you!
