DOS
Make sure you have comfortable shoes, and we can’t stress that enough. Sneakers, flip-flops and everything you need for long walks.
Bring plenty of sunscreen – a tan may sound fashionable, but don’t get burned like this desert city gives you. Also make it waterproof if you want to jump in the pool in the middle of the night.
Spice up your look with accessories, definitely with bling stuff.
Walk around and explore, don’t just limit yourself to the Strip.
prohibitions
Don’t try to talk a Kardashian into conforming. You do not have to. Really.
Wear new shoes, let alone stilettos. Also, don’t be too confident about walking in heels.
There’s a fine line between having fun and dressing like a cabaret crew member – be careful.
Go out chic, but again in good measure here.
1. Strong or vivid colors during the day
If you want to stay on trend in Las Vegas, pack some statement pieces. You might spend your nights in luxurious hotels, clubs or casinos, but there is much more to discover during the day. There is so much going on 24/7 that 24 hours just isn’t enough. Unless you plan to stay at your hotel all day, throw in some flashy or colorful dressy clothes and head out. And when I say bright colors, it can be anything from hair accessories, shoes, layers, or even sunglasses. If you’re feeling bohemian, consider a flowy maxi dress or skirt paired with a denim jacket and ankle boots. For a Western twist, grab a cowboy hat, boots and a statement belt buckle. You can add a touch of vintage to your look by opting for a 1920s style dress or a retro suit in a bold colour. If you’re looking for a sporty look, wear a tracksuit and chunky sneakers. For a beach look, consider a floaty summer dress or shorts paired with sandals and a sun hat. If you’re feeling urban, wear a denim jacket paired with a graphic tee and high-top sneakers. No matter what you choose, Vegas has you covered.
2. Rompers or Playsuits - You'll get far
If there’s one place you can never be underdressed or overdressed, it’s Las Vegas. They can fall on both sides of the spectrum and no one cares. It’s not uncommon to see people in pajamas, flip flops, or yoga pants throughout the day. However, some locations have dress codes. So get on the comfy side and complement your Las Vegas outfits with rompers, playsuits, etc. You don’t have to make an effort to fit, but still meet in the middle to hit the sweet spot.
3. A velvet dress, an asymmetric dress or the little black dress
Don’t count on just one dress a day in Vegas, as you’ll need more than one given the heat. Take some of your best party clothes with you when you go to the bar or casino. Although there is no formal dress code, there is something fascinating about dressing up in a velvet dress at nightclubs and matching it to the splendor of the place and the atmosphere. Or a chic looking asymmetric dress with pumps and an eye-catching shoulder bag. If you’re a moody type like me, still throw your classic, form-fitting little black dress in your holdall, it never goes out of style and it’s practical too.
Tip: If you’re on a budget, consider looking for trendy pieces at affordable and budget-friendly stores like H&M or Zara. If you’re looking for high-end options, head to designer stores like Gucci or Louis Vuitton for luxurious dresses and suits.
4. Stock up - the chic bathing suits
If one day you don’t feel like going out, laze by the pool but in style. When in Vegas, remember that it’s all done in style. So either jump in the pool or sip your Cosmopolitan by the pool – do it in your best bathing suit. And don’t be shy, nobody judges you for what you wear.
5. Accessories - to your heart's content
Be it a large rhinestone clutch, body jewellery, statement necklace, finger rings or anything else you want to dress up with, show off your best side at the party. During the day, reflectors or fedora hats are fashionable ways to spice up your accessories.
6. Shoes - comfortable and stunning
Shoes can have a huge impact on your Vegas experience. Choose shoes/sandals that you have tried and believe in. To enjoy the Las Vegas Strip, the unspoken stipulation is that you must wear something comfortable. Strutting around in your 6 inch shoes all day is not an easy task. Don’t forget to cover the distance. It’s just not worth the pain. Wear ballet flats, gladiator shoes, flip flops, or sneakers that will cushion your feet. Take loose change with you once inside and that’s the best advice anyone has given me.
7. Makeup - vibrant and to the point
I know Vegas has room for all of our craziness, but if you’re not, you don’t have to. Just keep your makeup alive so it’s in proportion and on point. Be sure to try out all the eccentric lipstick shades you wouldn’t otherwise work with. As far as we can remember, there is a fine line between uniqueness and unnecessary exaggeration.
In summary, Las Vegas vacation clothing allows you to unleash your creativity and enjoy a wide range of styles. Whether exploring the city during the day or immersing yourself in the nightlife, the key is to prioritize comfort while expressing your unique fashion sense. From chic dresses to statement pieces to bright colors, Las Vegas offers the freedom to experiment and have fun with your outfits. Remember to wear comfortable shoes, protect yourself from the sun and use accessories to enhance your look. With these tips and tricks in mind, you can plan your Las Vegas wardrobe with confidence and make the most of your exciting and memorable trip.
