I have found that dressing for a night out in Las Vegas is a lot like dressing for Halloween — just add “sexy” to whatever you’re thinking of wearing, and you’re good to go.  It is Sin City, after all, so why not dress the part (especially since what happens in Vegas allegedly stays in Vegas)?  Usually “sexy” means showing a little skin, but if that’s outside your comfort zone, I think you can still hit the jackpot by adding something unexpected and eye-catching to a simple dress.

Here, I’m wearing a Vivienne Westwood Anglomania navy dress.  It’s fairly simple (although Vivienne Westwood does some amazing draping that provides shape without being too tight in the wrong places), but what I think makes this outfit work in Vegas are the neon orange McQ by Alexander McQueen shoes.  I think they’re impossible not to notice, even when standing next to Bumblebee from the Transformers.  And they suggest a sense of fun and a willingness to take risks, which I think is always sexy.

So next time you’re in Vegas, remember you have options besides the tried-and-true micro-mini or slip dress.  Most of us go there looking for the right amount of wrong (in the “I want to be a little bad” sense, of course), so let that be your guide and go ahead and roll the dice!  (Sorry, I had to say it.)
