What not to wear in Vegas (Observations from the Field)

Vegas is a smorgasbord for the eyes. Most of the Vegas people-watching is nothing to write home about, but every once in a while, someone is worthy of a double-take... and maybe even a quick snapshot...
This sexy/ skanky woman was dressed in small pieces of fabric at 12 pm. You could see through the holes in her top.

Goth Boy was visiting Sin City with his middle-aged parents. One donned a brightly patterned shirt and cowboy hat. They were certainly a family of contrasts. Also, it was 30 degrees out! What was he thinking?

The only thing that would make this pair more perfect would be for him to have a mullet too. Take a close look at that thing. You don't get more mullet than that. I think she took the time to gel the spikes and straighten the back. Don't most people want to choose a style that is FLATTERING? I just don't get it.

What we wore in Vegas (The Epilogue)

This is a snapshot of some of the clothing highlights of our much anticipated Vegas Trip.

Hickteeth and I each packed 3/4 our summer wardrobes to keep up with Mme. Shenanigan, not knowing that she carefully packed just the right amount in a small little suitcase. OOTG, you have some of the best shoes ever and you sure know how to dress for the occasion- kudos for being a responsible packer! Next time, I will not bring quite as much ... it's too confusing !!! Whatever, we all looked MARVELOUS!

I just love my white top with thin orange and silver stripes from Zara with the flowy ribbons that wrap around and tie in front or back. The big white purse from Aldo really came in handy. I sure don't regret that impulse buy.

Mme Shenanigan looks dapper in all black. She shows style and confidence!

Hickteeth is sharp in skinny jeans that hug the ass just right and red heels for a night out on the Strip (plus or minus the "strip"). That pompom on the scarf really adds a little something something.

Ms. Ms. loves to show off her boobs! Mme S. is dressed to kill in her black g-string and she wants the world to know.

The girls loved the MGM Grand Pool's towels so much, they tried to smuggle them up to the room, but alas, their shrewd plan was thwarted at the gate.

Extrava-shoez-ga

My turn! What should I bring? Hmmm... Well I liked the idea of going for a run, or using the hotel gym, maybe once, maybe not at all, hence the running shoes. Then, I have a few pairs of comfy every day walking around shoes... I just can't pick which ones to bring. I think the sporty sandals are OUT!

Most important will be the evening shoes, I believe...

These flip-flop-ish ones are a summer staple (ie: I can walk in them and the style has held it's own, I think.



These silvery numbers I have never worn , and I'm not sure what they would look best with.

These guys have low heels, I can walk in them for hours, they are well broken in.


Yahoo! The perfect new strappy heels!! I have to get used to wearing these cause the heels hurt like a bitch after standing for a few hours (or one). These babies are coming with!
I rather like these, but may be best with pants, or if the nights are cooler, which they are supposed to be.

So many shoes, huh? Seems like so little to wear at times, anyway.

If I only had this to wear in Vegas!

I couldn't resist snapping a picture of this. This is what I strive to wear in Vegas! - A one piece purple jumpsuit.

What should I wear to Vegas: The Shoes

Ahh, when travelling the shoes are always the dilema! Below are the finalists in the "what to wear in Vegas" contest. Maybe you have some input. (keep in mind they have to go with the outfits below.




1. Sparkly Silver heels - These have Vegas written all over them - drawback: I can only wear them for a max 4hrs at a time

2. Sexy black pumps - Basic, go with everything and SEXY - I think I can last a max of 2hrs in these - although maybe if I drink enough the pain will subside?!

3. Natural cork sandals - these are simple, and sexy. I haven't walked great distances in them but for the amount i've worn them I have yet to receive any major blisters

4. Running shoes: In case hickteetch wants to go for a run after the all you can eat buffet at wynn

5. Pin strip vans: these are the latest addition to my shoe collection (only of which a fraction is pictured here) they are comfy, not sexy but might be perfect for walking down the strip

6. Blue ballet slippers - i love these shoes but my feet don't, blister city and i'm the mayor! they used to be great, then stretched out, i've tried insoles but they still fall off my feet. Thought i would bring them to see if OOTG would like them.

7. Trusty thongs - these are the "throw in the purse so when shoe #1 through #3 start to hurt I can switch them out" and/or wear to the LAZY RIVER!!!

What should I wear in Vegas?

Trying to figure out what to pack. Here are some choices from least skanky to most skany (all being slightly skanky .... after all it IS Vegas!)












Soon to follow --- which shoes to bring to vegas?

The Bridesmaid

OK, so, in about a month I will be the bridesmaid to a good friend who you have all met. It is an Indian-Italian wedding and for the ceremony, saris will be worn (picture to follow). For the reception, I was instructed to buy a black cocktail dress, no other suggestions or preferences were given. Last weekend, I discovered BCBG on Laurier St. with my mother and all the dresses were somehow, magically made for me- they all looked awesome, which is really rare! I bought the sexiest fucking one I tried on. I adore it. Please, allow yourselves to feast your eyes on THE BRIDESMAID'S DRESS. And feel free to share your thoughts on my damn hotness. Ha ha!


Now the issue is shoes. I have lots of trouble with accessories in general, especially shoes. I don't wear leather. And, I have very little fashion sense in general. So.... I need help. These sparkly silver and black babies I bought over the summer and never wore. I just tried them on today and they are comfortable, I like them. I know strappies are probably the sexiest and styliest way to go for the wedding, but I would really like your opinions on these.


Muchas gracias!
