casual style


Vegas at night

wearing: gold hoops / dress (runs big) / Dior summer nail polish / small tote bag / sneakers / (alternate shoe choice) /

Vegas at night has a certain je ne sais quoi. The lights, the buzz, and the over the top architecture are all part of the mystique and fun.

We stayed in a hotel off the strip so we could be close to our daughter’s cheer competition, which was the reason we were in Las Vegas. So, in order to get to the strip and avoid the chaotic traffic, we took the tram. This required quite a bit of walking on my part, so my heels were left in the hotel and I wore my sneakers for the evening. It was out of my comfort zone for style, but my feet were very happy. Soooooo, there’s that. Anyhoo. . .

Vegas is a rooftop type of town, so we had dinner at Cheri’s Rooftop inside the Paris hotel. I loved the view and the service was really good, the food was meh. We still had fun though!

After dinner, we went across the street to watch the water show. I haven’t watched it in over twenty years. It was a nostalgic moment for me remembering all the trips I used to take to Vegas with my friends before I got married. haha

We watched the show a couple times and then called it night since we had an early flight home the next morning. It was definitely a whirlwind, thirty-six hours in Vegas!

I love this dress and plan to wear it often in the upcoming months, the only drawback is that it runs large and I needed at least one size down. That’s ok, I will still wear it. If you order it, and are between sizes, pick the smaller size.

Casual afternoon in Las Vegas

wearing: gold hoop earrings / paisley oversized tee / Dior summer nail polish / classic jeans / small tote / sneakers /

Vegas baby! We recently took a whirlwind trip to Las Vegas to watch our daughter’s cheer team compete in National’s. We are so proud of her! She is on her college cheer team, and they did such an amazing job at National’s placing first! Love!

We flew in on a Friday night and our plane was extremely delayed. By the time we got to the hotel, it was almost midnight and we were ready to crash; so no Friday night on the town for us!

On Saturday, our daughter’s cheer team didn’t compete until the evening, so we had some downtime during the day to relax. We met her at Zeffer’s Cafe inside the Westgate for lunch.

Zeffer’s Cafe was so yummy! We all enjoyed our meals. They had both brunch and dinner available on their menu, so I went with lunch. I would definitely go back!

After lunch, I was still exhausted from the previous night’s travel experience, so I got a cold brew to wake me up!

We sat by the pool and relaxed. It was a little bit chilly, so we didn’t go in the pool, just relaxed on deck. I enjoyed my coffee and my husband indulged in a beer. I may or may not have dozed off for thirty minutes, but I digress. . .

After relaxing at the pool, it was time to switch things up and change into our college merch for the cheer comp! I don’t have pictures of that to protect my daughter’s privacy, but it was an evening of tumbling, stunting, fun routines, and watching our daughter’s team claim first place. Go team!

Lunch on a spring day

wearing: gold hoop earrings / stripe knit top / Dior summer nail polish / barrel jeans / gold bracelet / City bag / black boots /

Ah spring break! After my quick trip to College Station followed by Tucson, I had a couple of days left of spring break, so of course I met up with my fabulous friend Dawn from Fashion Should be Fun!

We enjoyed catching up on life with each other over a yummy meal at Stick and Wok at Valley Fair.

The food at Stick and Wok is really good, plus the owners are so nice and friendly! It was a really enjoyable experience. If you are local, I recommend popping in for a meal. You will enjoy it!

I wore my go-to barrel jeans and my Balenciaga City bag. They were perfect for a mild spring day. These jeans are so comfortable! I find myself reaching for them often. Love!
