The Ladies Roundtable took place this past weekend in Irving, and the conference was a fun-filled experience created to educate, empower and inspire today’s modern women. The producers of the event helped provide resources to women that can help them become successful in their careers and personal lives. We enjoyed networking with Dallas-area women and bloggers, as well as attending informational panels covering health/fitness, careers, dating and fashion.

The fashion panel, sponsored by Belk department stores, was one of my favorites! The mannequins below were styled by a few of our blogger friends, and the ladies showcased their favorite fall looks from Belk at Galleria Dallas. Designer brands that were on display included Vince Camuto, Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors and Sam Edelman.

The panel unanimously agreed on the following trends for the new season:

• Large handbags are in style (We need ALL of that space for our accessories and random stuff!)
• The creative cardigan is a great piece to add to any casual outfit.
• Neutral colors are a staple to your closet this fall, but also add a pop of color to brighten up your outfit.
• Over-the-knee boots and booties complete an outfit no matter how dressed up or down you may be.

We heart Belk’s assortment of designer products at great prices. Our team had so much fun at the sessions and can’t wait until next year’s Ladies Roundtable!
