Beyond the Obvious

 Wore my marni maxi dress during the day both on Saturday and Sunday. Great dress to throw on with no effort!

Dress, Accessories - Marni for H&M

This was the outfit I wore Sunday afternoon for our return to home from Las Vegas...

The inspiration:

 Jacket - TJ Maxx

Top - sister's

Jeans - Newport News

Sandals - Victoria's Secret

Necklace - Betsey Johnson

Beaded bracelet - Target

Bronze bangle set and cuff - Cookie Lee

And finally today's outfit:

Inspiration from the JCrew catalog:

My evil eye necklace was a simple accessory to the clean lines of the outfit:

 I just love the idea of dressy slacks with sneakers and adding the white belt really ties it all together. Such a simple idea but yet unique...

Since it is still chilly out (driving us crazy to have chilly weather in Southern CA in May) had to add a cardigan to the outfit. What better than the new light 'Hailey' jacket from the Kika Paprika line I sell:

The back is longer than the front and ruffled edge...

So light and airy...

Cardigan - 'Hailey' in white from Kika Paprika

Blouse - La Redoute

Pants - from Turkey (Yargici)

Belt - Forever 21

Sneakers - Rocket Dog

Necklace - from Turkey

OK so all these outfits should get me caught up with Tuesday finally!

As far as activities go we are having a busy week with Legoland field trip on Monday, park class today and the Peter Pan play will follow tomorrow!

Let the good times roll

 This was my outfit Saturday Night! The inspiration came from this adorable chictopia post:

 I just adore this combination and loved the fact that I could totally re-create with what I owned...

Jacket, Shorts, leather cuff - Forever 21

Blouse - La Redoute

Bow pin - Asos

Bracelets - Tilly's and Asos

Heels - Betsey Johnson

SATURDAY DAY:
Was spent lounging by the pool after our hubbies arrived and we checked into our respective rooms...

Then we had an amazing dinner at this restaurant in a funky architecture:

Then we were swept by a limo to the Elvis Chapel where our friends renewed their 10 year wedding vows!

There were some photos in front of our hotel and rest of the night:

Vegas Baby

I am back!

We had a blast spending 2 nights and 2.5 days in Las Vegas with friends!
Didn't have that much time for too many outfit photos but plenty of fun action photos were taken for sure!

Friday Road:

Striped Tee - from Turkey

Boyfriend Jeans - Newport News

Belt - Ralph Lauren

Purse - 6951

Lizard skin sandals - Victoria's Secret

Friday was the girl's trip to Vegas. 4 of us took the flight from San Diego and the fun started immediately.  We checked-in to our hotel (Aria) and then decided to explore the hotel and the next hotel and have an early dinner at the Cosmopolitan hotel. And then of course visited the Walgreens to stock up on huge bottles of water, snacks and some drinks for the 'getting ready' portion of our night.

Heading to the airpot:

Crystal Mall between Aria and Cosmo:

This store was AMAZING! We loved pretty much every piece from dresses to jackets to necklace except prices who were quite high!

My 'Cuba libre' drink at dinner. It was just a simple rum and coke but they added a cinnamon stick and a slice of lemon and a perfect sphere of ice which melted very slowly. Smelled absolutely heavenly!

The weirdest thing ever! This kept freaking us out!

 The important shopping trip to Wallgreens:

FRIDAY NIGHT:

I am not big on dresses as they leave very little room for creativity on crating the outfit but this one caught my eye with the huge front beading that looks like a 'tie'. 

Dress, Eearrings, Purse - Forever 21

Shoes - Betsey Johnson

FRIDAY NIGHT:
Our initial plan was to go to the club at Cosmopolitan but realizing the long walk and the height of our platforms we decided to just stick with Aria's club (Haze).  We thought we would just get a stamp so we keep our VIP status of no-line, no-cover but saw that the club was getting quite packed already just stayed. Even had free drink tickets which was good cause at almost $16 a pop drinks were quite high. Water was a ridiculous $8 for a miniature bottle so I decided to melt the ice in my finished drink to make water! After contemplating our options on the invitations to a couple tables we cave in for the opportunity to sit and dance without getting pushed around. It was a fun night that lasted until 2 AM.
