Two weekends ago, I went to Vegas for my bestie’s bachelorette party. Can I just tell you how excited and happy I was so see all of the girls? It was basically a middle/high school reunion all over again. I also met a few of her other friends and omg – they were the sweetest and most amazing group of women :) We went out both nights while there and had a blast! Although I didn’t have time to lounge at the pool, I packed a swimsuit that I am IN LOVE WITH and can’t wait to wear. Best part – it was from Target and was less than $30. I haven’t bought a swimsuit in over 2 years (before I got pregnant) so I was kind of dreading the whole process. Here’s a recap of my going out outfits and similar ones you can find right now.
For Friday night, all the girls wore black and the bride-to-be wore white. My bodycon dress was from Forever21 for less than $15. SCORE! It was a halter cut neckline with double criss-cross straps in the back and although the dress is no longer available online, these are similar styles that are very Vegas appropriate 🙂
I found these KILLER shoes from BCBG at the last minute on clearance for $40, and again, no luck finding them online, BUT I found these pretties that are quite similar. The prices range from steals to splurges…and of course I love them all 🙂 (Steal by Joe’s | Deal by Schutz Mimi| Splurge by Gianvito Rossi)
For Saturday night, we got dolled up for a fancy dinner at The Barrymore and then hit the town for some dancing. I found this Guess dress at the mall in Vegas, and although the coral color is no longer available online, they still have other colors available ON SALE for $80 (originally $98 which is that I paid for it). It’s more of a shift dress, but it was super flattering on and the length (which was short, but not SUPER short) was perfect for me. (I’m 5’8” without heels.) I purchased the Medium. Also, it looks like a halter dress, but it’s not. The double ruffle neckline is adjustable (if you want a visible keyhole in the middle) and the back has cute gold tassles on the ends.
And lastly, I wanted to share the great swimsuit I purchased at Target 🙂 There was a matching bottom in the same print, but I opted for the simple black bottom with side braiding at the hips. High neck crew bikini tops are definitely in right now! (Nasty Gal | Victoria’s Secret)
I’m working on Vegas Part II (Dining Recap) and Vegas Part III (Planning/Throwing A Bachelorette Party Recap) and will post those soon so stay tuned lovelies! Have a great Hump Day!
Dang girl, looks like you had a great time (and you were dressed to the nines as well!) Love those LBD picks!
Thanks Jess. You have such a petite figure that you would look great in them.
Holy Hot Mama!! Love those looks – too bad you didn’t get a day by the pool but sounds like you had a great time. Love those black heels from your first night too! XO, D
A woman never passes up a great deal on shoes like that. I’m sure it’s illegal somewhere… 🙂
