Tonight I am actually packing for a trip to Las Vegas to cover the Academy of Country Music Awards. While frequent travels have me replacing luggage early-- this particular jaunt is always a challenge. 80 degrees outside and absolutely freezing in the event venues. So, I have a few tricks that are literally 'in the bag' to make it a little easier:
1) Found some great short sleeve shrug sweaters at Stacey Rhodes Boutique-- bought them in both black and white-- to wear with strapless dresses. They roll up and go in the bottom of my purse without getting wrinkled and completely cover my shoulders without ruining the look of the dress.
2) I always carry a few Nature's Way Cayenne Extra Hot supplements. I pick them up at Whole Body/Whole Foods. They literally keep me warm from the inside out for hours. Just don't take on an empty stomach or you really will feel like you are on fire inside.
3) One easy piece that works with most anything in Vegas is a short black leather jacket. You can wear it over a swimsuit and not look out of place. Great with a white t-shirt and jeans for day for shopping and then just as easy to throw over a fun cocktail dress or the same jeans and decorative top for night.

Can't wait to check out the new Cosmopolitan Hotel and Aria-- having dinner at both, so will fill everyone in on the details. Any suggestions appreciated!
