While packing for Vegas I was mainly focussing on casual-ish day outfits that would work in extreme heat and pair easily with the gladiator sandals I brought. I also didn't want anything too tight, clingy and figured sleeveless would be best.
Sure enough, it's a sorcher here and I'm glad I packed these fairly minimalistic outfits. Additionally, I paired the majority of my outfits with bralettes instead of bras for comfort and breathability (and I'm kind of loving that look right now too). Plus, since a lot of the outfits are somewhat revealing, in a casual way, it's a sweet way to pretty up any outfit with a peek showing.
As I'm here for six days and five nights, I packed six day outfits, four evening outfits, two bikinis, four pairs of shoes and gym clothes (not shown).
I'll be sharing photos wearing these outfits so keep up on my Instagram if you'd like to see (I'm acoest1984).

Friday night I hit the gym after work and then decided to take a little trip out to Orleans to start my shopping for my next video. I found a few things, but this jumper was not one of them. Being tall has plenty of downfalls, one of them being it almost impossible to find rompers that are long enough in the body!
Jumpsuit: Dynamite
Saturday morning.
More photos after the jump...
I arrived yesterday--after pulling an all nighter--at 11am Vegas time. Dropped off the bags in the and went out to explore. Ended up eating some great Mexican food at a place called Javier's in the Aria resort and then took a 6-hour nap! Clearly pulling an all-nighter is not ideal, but when you have to leave for the airport at 3:30am, it almost seems pointless to go to bed--that and I'm a horrible last-minute packer.
Speaking up packing, I will be sharing what I've brought on this trip tomorrow, along with my weekend snaps later today. Hope you don't mind on the delay. Additionally, I edited a new haul video on the plane so expect that sometime this week too.
It's only 8am here and I'm up and off to the gym, then to find breakfast. Today will be an exploring-the-strip kind of day, I'm thinking. Was so excited to fluke and catch the fountain show last night at the Bellagio so I can check that off my list. Thanks everyone so much for the fabulous suggestions for the city on my post last week--so helpful and can't wait to check some of them out.
May has come and gone and it was the first month we finally felt settled in our new place. After two months of living in boxes and trying to figure out how to amalgamate two places into one, it's finally feeling organized.
Marco's parent's came down at the beginning of the month and we spent the day in Chinatown. I filmed a video for Clearly Contacts about why I became a #StyleAmbassador and how to pick the perfect frames. We finished my closet - office room (I'm sharing photos this week of how it looks now!) and I grew my nails out again (which have since all been bitten off--wah wah).
I shared a sneak peek of our bedroom (which has a ways to go before it's done) but we did get some new pillows that fit the new bed, so that's pretty nice. I wore a new palm printed coat, got flowers from a friend and created a new way to store and display my shoes.
I played a tennis a bunch of times--and have improved a little but might need actual lessons--was sent some really nice flowers and shared my Spring Trends video. We went to Taco Fest in Ottawa, I shared my new favourite jeans, I purchased some really cool new wedges & kicked my workouts into high gear by going almost daily for the last two weeks of the month.
As always, thanks for being here and reading along. I love connecting with you, so with that, tell me your favourite May memory in the comments below.
