what I bought for my trip to Vegas

"Nanm" <morris....@gmail.com>
We are going to Las Vegas for a long weekend, I am tagging along on my
hubby's business trip. I picked up a few things, mostly winter
markdowns, at a local boutique that I usually avoid because of bad
service. But, it is 6 blocks away and I didn't want to go further in
this weather!
* Two cotton ribbed tanks (one grey one pink) $10 each!
* An olive–greenish long–sleeved T for over the tank, to pair with:
* A really cute skirt that is love and maroon narrow–vertical– striped
taffeta, with a horizontal opposite colors striped rufle hem, with
tie–ups sort of in front of the legs, and kind of bustled with snaps in
the back. Hard to describe, but very cute.
* A pair of Clark's Indigo line 2–inch heel mules to go with above
skirt.
* Hot pink super–fine–wale (almost like velvet) pants
* Black velvet sleeveless mock–neck top with ruching in the front, goes
great with the pink pants!
I am also planning to bring the Betsey Johnson dress that I have yet to
have altered. Someone suggested the red velved short–sleeved jacket I
wore on V–Day might go with it, and it does, and covers the bunchy part
until I get it to the dress maker!
I am off to pack!

Have a great long weekend. Your skirts sounds really cute. DH and I will
be going there the last weekend in March, my first trip there since the
late 80s.

I'll take credit for the Betsey Johnson dress suggestion––and if it's a size
petite, I'll take hand–me–downs, too!
Have a great trip!

Oh yeah that's right!
Sorry, it is an 8, I think you would swim in it.
