With the exception of a few last minute items and toiletries, our bags are packed. We are ready for vacation!
On the top you can see clockwise from upper left: a vintage blouse, a Nudeedudee feedsack blouse, my pool set (swimsuit and matching teatimer cover up), my handmade castles skirt, and two grocery bags containing a couple of my pairs of shoes. My elephant sweater outfit did indeed get scrapped. In its place I’ll be wearing my black sleeveless knit blouse and Mexican circle skirt from BombshellShocked.
Shoes and purses are the worst to pack! I think I managed to narrow it down to six pair of shoes packed, one purse packed, one purse in my hand and my delicate lucite purse in my carry on, containing all of the jewelry that I wouldn’t dare check. Between the two of us we got it down to three checked bags total. I’m not sure we have ever checked more than two total, not even when we went to Ireland for ten days! Hell, I think the only time in my life that I’ve personally checked two bags is when I was going to live in Ireland for a semester in college. But the third bag should have plenty of room for VLV purchases. It’s not very full and is mainly needed because I’m paranoid about going overweight with my suitcase, which is the bigger of the two. After all, my toiletries kit and hair dryer weigh a lot. (The hair dryer will hopefully not be needed but I’m taking it as insurance in case I set my hair there and it doesn’t dry in time.)
I’m going to try and get outfit photos each day and evening of VLV, plus the remainder of our trip afterward, which will hopefully include me standing outside the turreted Excalibur in my castles skirt. 😉
So, we’re off tomorrow morning, I wish I could take you all with us! See everyone in a little over a week!

Viva Las Vegas!!
Hope you guys have a good time! Can’t wait to see the pics. We are moving there in a couple of months. It’ll be nice to see what Vegas has to offer, entertainment-wise, other than the strip.

I’m super jazzed about your trip, can’t wait to see the photos you take while there! Love the glimpse into your suitcase, all those novelty prints are amazing (also can’t wait to see you wearing the glorious castle print skirt). Have fun and enjoy the warm weather!
I will be staying at Excalibur for VLV! I love the castles print. Have a great trip 🙂
So wonderfully envious! I hope you have a fabulous time and I can’t wait to read (and see) all about it. The clothing selections look lovely. You will be killing it. xoxo
That might be the prettiest packed suitcase ever! Have lots of fun, I can’t wait to see your trip photos!
Have a great trip! Are you staying at Excalibur? I stayed there when I went to Vegas for my best friends wedding and loved it!
You are lucky with your baggage allowance….in the UK you can check one bag only of 20kg, even on International flights!
Yea! I just discovered your blog…I am in love!!!!! Happy Vegas trip, doll! {for some reason those “star” pasties are just crackin’ me up!!! 🙂 }
