The Way You Make Me Feel

Well we are back from Sin City!
I never took a true outfit photo but tried to crop some from the group photos to display what I wore at nights…

FRIDAY:
In the Airplane to Vegas then lunch at the hotel and hit the pool right away…
We stayed at Mandalay bay and found online coupons to book high floor suites that had amazing strip views.
Mandalay Bay has a wave pool as well as many other surrounding pools. We found the side pools were a better spot for us to lounge…
Our hubbies arrived mid afternoon and joined us at the pool then we got ready for the night. 
We had a nice dinner at the hotels big wine cellar restaurant where a woman dressed in rock climbing suit uses a rope lift to climb the clear wine cellar tower to retrieve wines.
After dinner four of us when to the 'Ice Bar' while the other two couples went to another rooftop bar…





 This was the same outfit I wore to my lil sister's bacheloratte party 
wanted to get one more use out of it...





SATURDAY:
Woke up somewhat early. We didn't quite tighten the black out shades so the light was seeping in and when on vacation you kind of want to wake up for the fun to start. Met couple of our friends at the buffet for breakfast right after securing 8 poolside chairs.
After Buffet we got settled by the pool. A long day of drinks and swimming. The lazy river was fast and super fun. By mid afternoon I could feel the sleep coming on so went up right away and took a nice long nap! It was soooo nice.
My husband woke me up 20 minutes before we were supposed to meet and I rushed and got ready.
We had dinner at an italian restaurant again in our hotel (actually in the four season's which is the connecting hotel). 
Then went to see the Cirque du Soleil's Michael Jackson ONE show!
Pretty good. 
Then we were up to rooftop club 'Foundation Room' to end the night!












Yes my friend spent the entire weekend in a 'boot' she was such a tropper!

En Route

 This is my outfit for our big Vegas trip. I put it on in advance to make sure it worked and figured should take photos so I can schedule the post while I am gone… The hat might change cause I bought a new hat that has more sun shade coverage but we'll see how that looks in the morning...




Tried it with the black baseball cap that was a give away at Comic Con last year...





White Fedora - Target
Black Cap - from Comic Con

Going to Vegas with our great friends for the weekend. No kids, four couples should be fun and relaxing. The forecast is 96 on Saturday but we'll soak in the pool sipping fruity drinks so we won't care! Look for a great post on Monday!

EVERLAST

 I couldn't get dressed today as I got a spray tan so it was the perfect day to do the 'pink boxing glove' photo shoot. These super cute pink boxing gloves are being passed on from blogger to blogger by Ally from the 'Shybiker' blog… When I saw the challenge I jumped right in. I was officially going to mix them with a fashion outfit but the fact that I have been working out so  much suited to do a real boxing shoot instead.  I think it came out cute...






Of course my son saw the gloves and got very excited...







Gloves - Everlast
The whole workout outfit - Forever 21
Sneakers - Nike
Sunglasses - Betsey Johnson

TODAY:
My daughter had spent the night at my parents house and my husband took a super early flight to go to San Fran for the day so I was alone with my little man.
Cooked him a Turkish style breakfast and ate together while chatting.  Then we went to his school and I parked and we ran runclub together. He is so precious. All his friends he usually runs with started coming and he said 'Hi' to them but kept running with just me. I know it will change but for now I just want to hold on to this attachment forever.
We ran 14 laps then the bell rang and I came back home to shower and finish packing. Since i had this unexpected child free time I went to Nordstrom Rack  to shop for some stuff for my husband. I was very good and didn't even peek at the female section. It is tough of course figuring out if they will fit right or not so there will be some returns/exchanges for sure.
Then it was to my spray tan appointment. I have never done this hand spray method and it was quite an experience. FIrst of all it is hard work standing in this tense position for such a longtime and holding your arms up and sideways for long periods. I hate this sticky feeling and leaving marks everywhere I touch but she ensured me once I shower tomorrow morning it will all be great. I sure hope so.
After that went to pick up my son. Did the library thing then went to the park but it was too hot and none of his friends were there so we came back home Then took him out for sushi dinner.
He is the only one in our foursome family that eats sushi so it was so fun trying on rolls together and nibbling on seaweed salad.
