My Travel Bag - Las Vegas Trip

I'm going to Las Vegas for 4 days (3 nights). It's a short trip, so I'm not going to be packing much.

Accesories (Essentials)
  • Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette Accessoire Damier EbeneI don't bring many cards with me when I travel, so I decided to take this instead of my wallet. I simply put a cardholder in there and add my lipstick of the day. I got this in May of this year but I've been using it so much! I even use it as a wristlet whenever I don't feel like bringing my handbag.
  • Rudsak Passport Holder: I got this during the Rudsak Sample Sale and this was my first time actually using it. It has 3 card slots, so it's great to put credit card and/or ID when you're traveling.
  • Banana Republic Sunglasses: Can't go to any trip without my sunglasses! I got these from Banana Republic last summer.

OOTD: Casual with pop of red


T-shirt: Zara
Sunglasses: Banana Republic


I went to Old Port of Montreal yesterday with a couple of friends. I knew we would mostly walk around and just talk, so I wanted to dress comfortably...

Handbag

Jet Set Top-Zip Saffiano Leather Tote
Color:
Scarlet Red


I love this MK bag! I use it a lot in spring/summer because I walk a lot outside and prefer carrying this instead of my LV Speedy 30. The pockets on the side are so convenient! I usually put my phone there. The fact that it's red just makes it even better!

OOTN: Amber's Birthday Dinner


Dress: Forever 21
Blazer: Forever 21 Crisp Collarless Blazer
Necklace: Forever 21 Opulent Pearlescent Choker
Earrings: Forever 21 Glam Faux Stone Studs (color gold/cream)
Bracelet: Dynamite

I organized my sister's surprise birthday dinner (click here to read my blog post on it). 

I actually went shopping for my outfit the day before the dinner and even got some stuff the day of (yup last minute as always). I wanted something dressy but comfortable at the same time. You can find all the details on each of the items below. 


Clothing

Blazer
    
Crisp Collarless Blazer purchased from Forever 21 
I fell in love with this white blazer (I have a slight obsession with blazers). I actually saw it online but wanted to check if they had it in-stores and they did. I tried it on and fell in love instantly (no surprise there).

Dress


Short royal blue dress purchased from Forever 21 

Then I found this sleeveless blue skater dress and it looked nice with the blazer. I wore a black tank underneath. I wanted to wear black stockings but found it too short, so wore black tights instead.


Jewelry

I bought all my jewelry the day of the event...


Necklace: Opulent Pearlescent Choker purchased from Forever 21 
Earrings: Glam Faux Stone Studs (color gold/cream) purchased from Forever 21:
