Travel // Viva Las Vegas!
We spent the last few days in Las Vegas with my best friend from high school & her husband celebrating our 30th birthdays. It was my first time in Vegas & definitely lived up to the hype!!
When we got in, we were so tired from the time change & early flight, that the first thing we did, was nap! ;) I'm not even embarrassed to admit it. That evening we went to dinner at Olives, recommended by another friend, and had an amazing view of the Bellagio fountains. The experience was so fun & entertaining, and the food was amazing too! Friday, we spent the morning checking out the area, grabbed an early lunch & then went to the pool. The pools in Vegas are amazing, and we probably would have spent our entire trip there if it hadn't rained so much. But we did get one day of sunshine & poolside margaritas!! My swimsuit is this ruffle bandeau in stripes from Victoria's Secret, I loved it so much!! In the late afternoon we went to the Stratosphere to get the best view of the strip & go on the rides, which I definitely wouldn't have probably agreed to before those margaritas! ;) Then went out on the strip for dinner & drinks, to round out what felt like a 36 hour long day.
What happens in Vegas... is hangovers.
Saturday we had brunch at the Hash House, and had their famous chicken & waffles, then headed to Fremont Street. I loved this area, it has a totally different vibe than the strip, and has so many charming restaurants & pubs. It rained most of the morning but then cleared up & was the perfect overcast afternoon for walking around. We went to Container Park, which is another super fun spot, did some beer tasting & had lunch in one of the little rooftop cafes. Saturday night, we went to see Eric Church at the Hard Rock, which was INCREDIBLE. I have wanted to see him in concert forever, he is our favorite & we were sooo excited to find out that he was going to be there while we were in town. He puts on such an amazing show, we definitely didn't want it to end!!

We also had the pleasure of visiting the Rent the Runway store at the Cosmopolitan, and spent the morning trying on dresses which was so much fun!! I will share more about our trip there & some of my favorite dresses, but ultimately I chose this Cynthia Rowley romper, I loved the long sleeves & the way it fit. If you're thinking of renting this for an event or a night out, you can get $20 off your first rental, which brings this to only $30! And bonus, it has pockets!! I loved it & would totally rent this again!
Vegas was an amazing time, definitely enough fun to make me realize I can't hang like I used to! ;) At the end of the day, we couldn't be happier to be back home though. A kid free vacation was much needed, but made us feel extra grateful to have our babies to come home to.
Now just working on my recovery. Wishing you all a happy week ahead! XO
