Meet Judy Jetson

As I type this, I cannot even hold my excitement in. This very weekend my mom and I will be headin' to Austin, Texas for the SXSW conference. Until last season's Real World, I had never heard of SXSW, but after seeing the cast choose different bands to perform at the festival, I had instant appreciation--especially since it was Real World Austin/SXSW that discovered hellogoodbye, one of my music favorites-of-the-moment.

Although I'm immensely dissapointed that I won't be there during the music festival (Jack's Mannequin is performing!!!), I'm still extremely excited about the trip, because I'll be speaking on a panel at the Interactive Conference titled "Meet Judy Jetson: How Technology is Transforming 21st Century Teens." Interested in reading more on "Meet Judy Jetson?"

It all started when Anastasia, the brilliant blogger from YPulse one of my must-visit-daily favorites, invited me to join her on the panel and really, how can you say no to that? Plus, even though I've been to Dallas and Galveston more times than I can count, I've never seen Austin... unless you count Real World episodes, of course.

I must admit that I'm a teensy bit stumped on what to wear, as there is no standard dress code at SXSW and I'm not sure what weather is like in Austin during springtime. If you have any suggestions, shoot! I'm thinking ballet flats, minis, and blazers. Opinions?
