Pictoral evidence of the dress

Several of you asked to see a picture of my much talked about [by me] Vegas dress.
Ask and you shall receive.

The website did not have a picture, so please excuse my self portraits.

The front. Obviously. I do wish I had proper breasticles to fill it out.




Although on the other hand, not having proper breasticles means I can pull of not wearing a bra with this daring back.


 And there you have it.
Vegas wear.

Sexy but non-slutty Vegas dress: UPDATE

My Vegas dress has been purchased.
I filled what seems to be some deep rooted desire to channel female celebrities, and went with a bandage dress.
It's sexy, alright.
I hope it doesn't creep TOO near the slutty line.
I don't usually run around wearing skin-tight dresses, but hey, it's Vegas baby.

How to look hot without looking slutty: A Vegas conundrum



As I pointed out a couple of months ago, the girls and I are jetting off to Vegas in July for some fun times.

On our second night in town, we plan on partying it up at one or more of the hot clubs Vegas houses. So, my dilemma is this:

What the hell do I wear?
I want a dress that says "Hi, I'm Alex, and I'm here to party and maaaaybe make some men drool and buy us free drinks. However, I have a boyfriend and have no interest in random hookups with strange men, no matter how rich, nor do I want to find myself in a female version of The Hangover."
Though I've never been, I feel Vegas clubs might be the land of dresses that say, "Hi, my name is so-and-so, and I am trying to look as slutty as possible. Please, strange rich men, buy me endless amounts of vodka waters and take me to your suite."

So you see, I want hot, but not slutty.
Sexy! That's what I want. Classy sexy.
Oxymoron? I am determined to make it work.

Here are some ideas that Polyvore helped me conjure up:

This board has made a few things obvious to me:
a. I'm into sparkle/metallic colors. Like whoa. There is a sassy gay man in me just dying to get out.
b. It seems I find one shoulder to be synonymous with sexy. I'm a fan, what can I say.
c. I have a secret desire to wear a bandage dress, even though they remind me of the nauseatingly annoying Kardashian sisters.

I didn't even try to tackle accessories because I suck at those. Seriously. I need an accessories fairy to whisper in my ear every time I put on clothing.


Can any veteran Vegas revelers offer any advice??

I am coveting this

Dear Anthropologie,
You make the sweetest dresses (and skirts, shirts, jackets, accessories, homewares) . Why must you be so out of my budget? I think you are here to torture me and force me to covet.
Love, Alex
