Behind the Scenes: SBSCon Gift Bag

Everyone loves a little peek inside someone's bag, right? I've created an entire blog series dedicated to it. I've gotten lots of questions and inquiries from fellow bloggers (and non-bloggers) about the gift bags from the SBS Conference. I did a recap of last year's bag and was even more "wowed" with the generous sponsors and brands from this year's event that I wanted to share some of the items with you. I get really fired up over the "bloggers and free stuff" talk that I hear. Believe me, we weren't there for the free stuff. Was it a nice perk? Of course! But, honestly, the speakers and time spent with friends was so much more valuable. I know that may be hard to believe, but it's true.

Because these brands were so generous, I felt it necessary to spread some love and share some of the products with you! Thank you so much to these great companies for supporting and working with bloggers! You have no idea how much we appreciate the love!
