Exploring Las Vegas


Hey hun buns! This summer I've been fortunate enough to travel to America and do a little road trip type thing of the west coast - starting with Las Vegas (you've probably seen or read about it on my Insta if you follow me). I literally took photos of everything with my trusty Olympus Pen E-PL7 so obviously it had to call for a photo diary type thing of the whole experience - duh. So be expecting a few more of these types of posts (US makeup haul coming very soon).

We stayed in the Vdara hotel which does not have a casino that takes 5 hours to walk through (with the potential of getting lost in your own hotel) but also links up with the Bellagio and the Aria hotel (so if you wanted to walk to them and gamble then you can) but honestly I had no idea what the deuce I was doing with the machines and stuff like whatttt. Actually come to think of it I think a lot of the hotels are linked, but I'm not really sure how exactly it works so. Our hotel room was actually beautiful and had the most insane view of the Bellagio fountains each night which was seriously stunning.


Part of our trip involved a helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon which was actually insane and I was actually really worried I was gonna get travel sick and throw up all over myself - it's okay because I didn't, we all good homies. 


So now we move onto the Caesars Palace section - where I met up with the lovely Faye where we hit up Sephora (post coming v soon), and I literally took a photo of e v e r y t h i n g. I mean, when everything is this photogenic you have to take a photo of everything cause you only live once hahahah. I will admit that without Faye I would have most definitely got lost inside this hotel because it is gigantic and a maze. These shops are mainly designer, except from a massive H&M store, so if you want high street vibes you can hit up the Miracle Mile Mall which isn't too far from Caesars Palace. 


As you can see, the theming is incredible and I kinda felt like I was in Rome, even though I definitely wasn't. Also, thank god for air conditioning because without it I would have been a puddle on the floor. Walking around outside in the midday heat is something out of a sweaty nightmare, please make sure you do the majority of your walking about and exploring in the mornings or evenings - if you do go out in the midday sun make sure you have suncream, sunglasses and lots of water. 


O and finally (haha pun intended) we saw "O" by Cirque De Soleil which was absolutely incredible. If you are planning a trip to Vegas then 100% make sure you book tickets for this in advance because they will sell out. The show is absolutely phenomenal, and a little bit strange at times, but I couldn't recommend it enough.


So there you have it, my little photo diary of my expeditions of Las Vegas. I didn't get a chance to explore the whole strip and I would have loved too but it was so hot, so this gives me an excuse to come back! 

Til next time xxx
