Take Me To Vegas With You

If you look out my window now, you would want a trip to Vegas. The snow is just falling, falling and falling. It's all white and pretty now but by tomorrow, it'll be horrible to clean up and drive in.

Anyways, my good friend May asked me to throw some ideas around on what to wear to go out on a trip to Vegas with her HS barkada in January. Since the forecast says that the weather was going to be between 50-60F, one still has to layer up! Although coming from the Northeast where it's the dead of winter, skin in moderation is in order. Here are two outfits that can be taken a notch up or down.

#1

A fun, detailed colored top (let's leave the monochromatic NY blacks home for now)

+

a mini skirt (wool/ dark denim, your choice)

+
A sleek pair of tall knee boots (notice the sliver wedge on this one, I personally am not keen on sky high heels with minis)

#2

A lacy (racy) top

+
A pair of fun pants (or dark denim skinnies)

+
booties!!! (pop of color anyone?)

With the following accessory suggestions: cabochon or dangling earrings and cocktail rings (wear more than one).

And a good size envelope clutch like this

Also, Bring a scarf that can double as a shrug/shawl, maybe even a blazer to ward off the chill when the temperature dips.

P.S. May, enjoy Vegas in January -- looking at what I came up with, I'm not exactly sure if it's even "Vegas" at all. What is Vegas dressing anyway??? kKKKkKk. Show them your NY chic-ness na lang!!!
