A Day in Las Vegas ♡

Hi Weshy Wanderers how are we doing? So today's post is going to be all about how I would transition my look throughout a day in Las Vegas! I have yet to mention this on my blog but I will be writing a post about how in the summertime this year I will be jetting off to New York to start my 5 week tour around America! One of the most amazing places that I will visit whilst I am there will of course be Vegas! I mean a trip to the grand old USA would not be complete without a night in the dazzling strip of Vegas now would it? Unfortunately, I will only be there for one night but fear not as I have compiled a list of looks that would (in my eyes) benefit someone when they only have one day and night to enjoy the sights Vegas has to offer! So let's jump right in! :) For this post I have partnered up with Vegas.com and given you my ultimate list :) Why not check them and their hotels out over here - Las Vegas Hotels? 

Now first off, let me just say I know I will never be able to fit in everything I would like to do in Vegas; like go to a show, have lunch out, do a tour(s), have dinner out, have a full on night out or even just visiting each different themed hotel, but once I am there I shall try to do most of it! So for the benefit of this post, let's say we're doing it all in the one go! 


HOTELS

I have already booked my stay in Vegas in the Luxor Las Vegas hotel but don't let that stop you from staying in some of the most famous hotels such as; Caesars Palace or the Aria Resort and Casino!
DAY TIME


So you've woken up and you open your curtains to a breathtaking view of Las Vegas so what do we have planned? How about some shopping and some bus tours? 

Whether you're more of a fashion fanatic or a sweet tooth, there is lots to offer in Vegas. The Wynn Esplanade ranges from Louis Vuitton to Ferrari! Whilst on the other hand, the huge M&M's World store is more than a delight to take a walk in! 


So now that we have our destinations planned what are we wearing? Well considering the temperature in Vegas during the summertime is pretty hot I would go for something light and airy but that doesn't compromise my style in any way :) So I have two choices here, both are very laid back. Some brown gladiators with denim shorts and a cute flowery top or a super cute co-ord that stays within the flower theme! I'm not a huge heels person so would never be able to imagine walking around for hours in them! 


TOURS


Now if you're thinking of taking in a little tour of the Vegas strip, why not try the Big Bus Tours they last 2 hours and you get to see Vegas on a double decker bus! Plus the price is pretty awesome, only $37! For this, I would probably get changed as I wouldn't want my outfit to get crumpled and it may be hot out, but the wind when driving along may cause a little shiver (I get cold very easily!). So for this I would pair shorts with a plain white top and a detailed kimono over it :) 


LUNCH


Now for lunch, we definitely need to dress this up a little, I would take a lovely stroll to the Aria and indulge in some light Thai lunch at Lemongrass! The first outfit is very basic but is brightly refreshed with some pastel pink accessories whilst the second outfit is very full on girlie with the pastel skirt and cute flowery crop top! I would probably not dress it up with accessories as I feel the shoes, outfit and bag do all the talking! 


SHOWS


A trip to Vegas would not be complete without taking in a show! So after out delicious Thai meal why not head on over to Luxor and witness the amazing Criss Angel! His show is only $71 and I'm sure it would be a guaranteed amazing spectacle! If that isn't your thing, then don't worry the amazing Britney Spears is also around at Axis Theatre over at Planet Hollywood doing her thing :) For this outfit I believe that comfort is important as shows do tend to go on for a while but then again this is Vegas so I'm sure a lot of styles would suit! Personally I would go with one of 2 choices; a cute crop top and skirt with some short heels and false lashes or some stunning culottes with a jewelled crop top!


DINNER

Now for the next major event of the night! Where to go for dinner? There are so many choices it would take over a year to be able to dine out everywhere! But here are my top 2; the Lago next to the Bellagio Fountains and  L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon over at MGM Grand. Why not ravish yourself with some delicious French cuisine whilst taking in your beautiful surroundings! 


For such a wonderful evening out, the attire must of course suit the atmosphere and surroundings so for this I would style myself with some very similar pastel outfits that are embellished and simple yet really do stand out! 


NIGHT OUT

Now that you have filled yourself up it's time to head home and get ready for the big ending to this wonderful day in Vegas! Time to hit the dance floor and get totally crazy with it! But where is best to go? Well I would definitely want to try out the Voodoo Rooftop at Rio Hotel and the amazing looking Foxtail Nightclub and the Pool at SLS Las Vegas Hotel! 


Seeing as we are in Vegas, the outfit needs to be on point and completely gorgeous! So I would wear either something very revealing and tight in order to show off that tan and all that working out at the gym or something more demure (yet far more eye catching!!) such as this exquisite sequinned dress with two shades of colour paired with some enormous black platforms and a small clutch! 



After all the excitement of the day, Vegas will be sure to leave you with a million more memories to forever hold on to :) As you may have noticed, this style transition from one to the next does include 6 outfit changes in total, but hey being in Las Vegas is as good a time as any to need that many changes! Enjoy what this amazing city has to offer and make the most of your time here! I hope you've enjoyed finding out how I would style myself during all these different activities!

Award Season is Upon us! ♡

Hi there Weshy wanderers how are we? So as you may have noticed award season is coming at us fast and mighty what with The Grammy's, The Academy Awards and The Oscar's having just been finalised (special mention  - congrats again to Leo!) But coming up we still have The Kids Choice Awards, The MTV Music awards and the Teen Choice Awards (amongst many others!). 

So although the nominees and the shows are a delight to watch, what happens before that? The all important red carpet outfits of course! Let's have a look at some of this year's outfits to refresh your memories:

GRAMMYS


OSCARS


I, of course, have never been to any kind of award shows and considering how many choices there are I may have to have a top 3! The Black Tux are a company that offer a more varied array of mens tuxes and suits and have some quality pieces for great prices! For my top 3 I will be choosing a piece from their (male) collection, a high street piece and a haute couture piece! :) I will also be styling 3 male pieces but in terms of celebrity styling I think I should leave that to the professionals as they all looked amazing and stunning!

OPTION 1 - The Black Tux

Velvet Tuxedo 
This beautiful tux will set you back = $125/£90 to rent

OPTION 2 - HIGH STREET
Both on ASOS

The dress is Virgos Lounge £120/$170 and the suit is ASOS £107/$151.

OPTION 3 - HAUTE COUTURE

Elie Saab and Carlo Pignatelli Shows
The dress is from the spring/summer 2016 Elie Saab collection whilst the tux is fall/winter 2016 Carlo Pignatelli collection and both are absolutely exquisite! I don't have prices for these pieces but one can only imagine.. 

So there you have it! Those are the top three in my dream world of awards shows! I hope you've enjoyed this post and I hope you enjoy the rest of the award shows coming our way!

Winter Fashion Haul ♡

Hi there weshy wanderers, yet again I have been a bit MIA and have realised that I need to pay you some attention! So basically my life so far has been surrounded by my University work, working part time at Rogano and trying to keep updated with YouTube and just life in general! I have also started a new fitness and lifestyle regime and I am really hoping it works as I am totally sticking to it this time! I have a few friends at work who are doing it too so I am hoping that their motivation keeps me going! My family was here in Scotland for four days so I may have fallen off the wagon for a few days but now they have gone so I am hoping to get right back on the correct track! 

Anyway I have a few goodies coming up and I am hoping to spruce my blog up a bit! I have a few ideas for blog posts and videos coming up so I am hoping you enjoy them! This video is about my current winter wardrobe and what I have recently purchased! I hope you enjoy seeing what I have been buying and keep your eyes peeled for some different material soon!

Pastel Perfection ♡

Hi there wanderers how are we all doing? Good I hope! I have once again been a little MIA recently but now that University work is all done and dusted (can't believe that's 2nd year finished!) I can focus on my blog and YouTube channel more and give it the attention it deserves. I am still working full time as a waitress for Rogano's but I'll always find a moment to relax and stay updated on blogging :)

Today's post is going to focus on my obsession with all things pastel! Whether it be pastel: pink, purple, blue, green or peach! The pastel trend is such a huge hit this summer and doesn't seem to be fading away anytime soon! I recently purchased some rather expensive coats in Zara (♡) and I decided to step further away from my comfort zone and more towards a bright or 'out there' kind of colour. 

I therefore opted for a gorgeous green coat and a bright fuchsia pink! Both are long and trench like but oh so comfortable and amazing quality. So in love.

Wandering to Waterloo ♡

Hi there wanderers, I can't believe the time has finally come for me to say I AM GOING HOME TO MY BABY COUNTRY; BELGIUM :D I literally cannot wait to be sitting on that flight (which FYI is only an hour and twenty minutes long) and to finally be staring into the lovely blue and sunny skies from my homeland.

I have missed Belgium dreadfully over the past seven months and I really need to try and organise myself to go home much more often! At least this time I will get to spend a whole ten days with my family rather than the usual rubbish five days I go. My baby cat will be waiting for me as will my friends and best of all; the SUNSHINE. Not that Scotland has been lacking that recently but still it's just not the same :p

So I also want to say that I won't be posing much as I will be enjoying some family time and a well deserved rest :)
