Viva Fat Vegas - Day 1

So I wasn't going to start posting about this stuff until I got home, but since I've woken up super early today I thought I should get a head start on covering the wonderful Viva Fat Vegas conference that's been happening over the weekend here in Las Vegas.


The words "trip of a lifetime" don't really seem to cover it. I arrived here with my husband on Thursday night and our jaws dropped as our shuttle drove us down the strip. How does this place even exist? It's just so over the top. I really like our hotel, the Riviera, a lot. It's not the fanciest place but it has this old-school vegas glamour about it, and it's been in a lot of movies. They upgraded everyone to nicer rooms too, not too shabby for Beth.


On Friday night I started getting ready to meet the girls super early, making sure my nails and hair and makeup were all perfect. I was pacing my hotel room like a teenager about to go on a first date. I was just so excited and nervous to meet everyone. I wore my jumpsuit from yours clothing and my waterfall jacket from Evans.

I totally didn't take enough pictures! The bar we went to was quite dimly lit so it was a little bit tricky to get good photos. But it was really great to see all these wonderful, talented women in the flesh and bond over some kick-ass cocktails.

I totally need to do a proper outfit post with that jumpsuit.

Anyway I've been so inspired by these ladies and feel so lucky that I got to come here and meet them. I'm going to try and get all my conference posts done this week, because after that I've got a few new outfits to share and a lot I want to write about. This conference could well have me covered for blog material until christmas!


Thankyou so much to Figuresque for sponsoring our opening night cocktails!
