VIVA LAS VEGAS! Sin City Essentials

Like most of us these days, I’ve been working my butt off lately — I’m definitely ready for some relaxation and revelry! Just in time, I get to be a fill-in for a friend’s husband on a quick 2-day jaunt to Vegas, where we’ll be poolside by day, and on the dancefloor/at a concert by night (7th row!!). For my packing list, I’m betting on corals, oranges, black and gold, with fringe, sequins, a little skin, and a whole lotta shine…

sunglasses / “Virgo” necklace / bikini top / bikini bottom / crossbody clutch / gold fringe cuff / coverup / open-back dress / black & gold halter blouse / black studded shorts / espadrilles / gold snakeskin sandals

Follow me on Instagram, and I’ll be sure to get my friend to take a few pics of my real-life outfits, with similar essentials to the above checked off that list (and an Alice + Olivia number in orange I haven’t worn since the last time I was in Vegas a year ago! Excited it gets to make another appearance.).

What a great reward, right? But ironically, this is my “Mother’s Day gift” which happens to fall on Father’s Day weekend…oops! So I’ll be hightailing it back Sunday morning to fulfill my wifely duties! What are your plans this weekend?
