Reader Request: Vegas, Baby!

Reader Heidi is going to Las Vegas in April with some girlfriends and wanted some tips on what to wear. She's in her 40's and wants to wear something fun, but she doesn't want to look like she's trying to be 20 years old again.

I put together an age-appropriate look that Heidi could take from daytime to nighttime.

FROM DAY TO NIGHT

Black Faux-Wrap Dress, $17.99

This photo doesn't do the dress justice - I own it and it's fabulous. It's a bit low-cut, though, but we'll get to that!




FOR DAYTIME

Simple White Tank, $3.80

To wear under the dress during the day. At night, take it off, baby!



Flip-Flops, $3.50

You can't go wrong with flip-flops for daytime. They come in a ton of colors. I personally would go with the bright pink or teal, but black works just fine as well.



Striped Canvas Handbag, $20.80

This is adorable and big enough to hold your guidebooks (and casino winnings).




FOR NIGHTTIME

Cropped Dolman-Sleeve Cardigan, $11.49

This will dress up and class up the simple LBD for nighttime, when it's a bit cooler.



Red Peep-Toe Heels, $15.99

These will inject a bit of color into a basically neutral outfit, and they're so cute!



Black Patent Hobo, $14.99

This is simple and adorable.



Metal Embossed Earrings, $8

I chose these for nighttime but they're casual enough to wear during the day as well.



GRAND TOTAL $96.56
