So for the first time ever I’m attending the Her Campus Her Conference and I’m hyped.I love events in the city and I especially love them if they’re relevant to me. This is totally relevant.

Have you heard of Influenster?  I figured I’d share my Influenster experience along with my latest VoxBox of free goodies along with some swatches and reviews of those things.
