5 Iconic Vegas Vibes for a Western Fashionista
#1: The Party All Nighter
This social butterfly knows that if she looks good, she feels good. When she feels good, then she can go from sun up, to sun down, to sun up. She brings energy to the group and always has ideas for when the mood needs to be revived. Whether it's a concert or making new friends, she knows how to get the party started and how to keep it going!

The Party Animal's top three style tips for rocking the girls' trip: 1) Don't be afraid of bright colors. Vegas is fun, and your outfit should be too. 2) Match your outer layer with your top to keep everything cohesive. You don't want to have conflict in your outfit that prevents you from staying warm or cooling down. 3) Sandwich theory. If you choose a stand out color on top, match your shoes to it and keep your bottoms mellow. If you do party pants, go less with your shirt and shoes so the pants stand out!
#2: You'll Find Her at the Casino
Casino Queen knows that her face card never declines, especially her poker face. She's keeping it cool and collected at the table and might just have an ace up her sleeve. No matter if that's in terms of surprise additions for the group, or how she wins her hand at the casino, she's ready to play with the big dogs. Catch her with her shades on as she faces the bright lights in the city that never sleeps.

Ms. Casino Queen's top three style tips for owning the strip: 1) Accessories are a must. Sunnies, hats, necklaces, earrings, bracelets; just literally raid the closet. 2) Be BOLD and remember you're in Vegas! Whether it's in color, texture, shape, pairings, or all, this is the opportunity to push the fashion boundaries. 3) This is not the time to wear your "standing only pants" because you will be sitting down, and then you will be wishing you could unbutton...
#3: She's Here for the Horses
Little sister energy, crowd wrangler, seat saver, the list goes on. And while she wants to have fun, Ms. Yee Haw is here to remind everyone that they came for the rodeo. Fearlessly (or maybe stubbornly?), she's ready to lead everyone through the crowds (holding hands, of course, no one is left behind) and ready to hunker down and watch some riding -- and maybe watch some cowboys too...

Horse Girl's top three style tips for rocking the bleachers: 1) It's ok to wear horse-themed clothes! Don't go crazy with it, but don't worry about it being cliche. 2) Wear the cowboy hat, but make sure your hair is still presentable. Especially if it's your favorite felt hat, this is the chance to show it off! 3) A long coat is a lifesaver. Not only is it fashionable, but no one is safe from cold stadium seats.
#4: A Lean, Mean, Shopping Machine
She's shopping but she's never dropping. Ms. Shopoholic came with one suitcase but is leaving with much, much more. She knows that the best deals are scored in person and that you should always try it on if given the chance. When the time comes, she's armed and ready to help everyone decide their final looks and always comes in clutch with that necessary accessory. And while she may stray from the group, you can always find her where the prices are right.

Super Shopper's top three style tips for owning the vendor village: 1) Wear shoes you can slip on and off, this way it's a lot easier to try clothes on! Something that's comfortable for lots and lots of walking is also important. 2) Mix and match your styles. Tops and bottoms that don't normally get worn together might surprise you with a super cute fit! 3) Use a belt bag or cross-body purse. Big purses and bags are great but can be inconvenient for shopping. Keep your essentials close so you can shop like a pro.
#5: Road Trip Warrior
Reaching the checked luggage weight limit? No problem for the road trip warrior who chose to drive in order to bring everything she pleases. It may seem excessive, but when the time comes and someone wants to borrow a curling iron, you know who they're asking? That's right -- the Packing Princess. She has everything and more to make this the best trip ever and isn't going to let travel get in her way.

Packing Princess's top three style tips for a comfortable journey: 1) LEGGINGS. Why would you wear anything else in the car? Even if you're flying, the stretchy pants are mandatory. 2) Wear layers to stay comfortable no matter where you are in your journey. Bonus: a shed jacket can serve as a makeshift pillow for a sleepy traveler. 3) Wear your tried and true shoes. Slip-on shoes are life savers in TSA or for back seat lounging!
