Vegas Valentines...Fatal Clothing Celebrations...

This year Magic Clothing Expo planned their show on Valentine's Weekend. So....I went along...As a tag-a-long sweetpea.... Kris and Kali dropped us off at the airport....
As we fly over Newport and Huntington.....

Thought the little straw in my cocktail on the way out was cute...fit for the occasion....


So as the story goes...I plan on working out each day. As this vacation was a time for me to get away. The week prior I had the end of soccer season stuff to finish, parties to plan, paperwork to finish..and just all the fast things that I did in 4 days. My plan was to get a manicure, pedicure...new outfits...all the things anyone wants before they leave on vacation...well mine was really just slammed together..but I did it..So...my mornings started here. At the gym. And it was beautiful. The weather was perfect.



My favorite place in the hotel. Seriously I am not the Vegas girl. Only because I CANNOT stand cigarette smoke, and cheezy slot machines dingin in the backround...and just the slimy feeling I get there. Sorry. But that's just my opinion. I would rather spend my hard earned money on clothes. I guess I am a true beachgirl at heart. The only clean place I felt I could escape to, was the gym area. awww I could breath. Even outside, I was pedeled by guys and girls trying to hand me stripper cards with numbers for a later hookup. eew. sigh



I passed this sign each morning going to the gym. And I smiled. What children? lol!




Has always been my motto. Super cute tanktops in the gym area.





The sights of Las Vegas. Beautiful day though.







My favorite candy. Jelly Belly's. One big statue. Cute-




And yes...I found Ross on the strip. And they had THE CUTEST bags in there. The sad part? Bill and I flew and I had 6 bags when I left. Funny he said, "hun, why so many bags..?" So... I didn't want to buy my 7th or 8th...I admired, held them and put them back. I did get one cute little red one for Valentines Dinner. And a cute shirt.




Inside MGM. Where the cutest tigers are housed. Chinese New Year-






He's still alive-




I did manage to get through the Tiffany and Louis Vutton store. I do have some favorites in there... Maybe some day. For now..I love Ross, Marshalls, TJ Maxx.


Ok...so here's how the story rolls out. Me and Linda (one of Bill's employee's-girlfriend) whom I just met this weekend...super cool girl. Super fun. Walked the streets with me...we shopped and walked and talked and laughed. About an hour into it, we see these super big margaritas passing us by...So we find them. We than make our way back to our hotel where there is a "Dick's" Restaurant. If you've never been, GO. They are beyond vulgar. But all in good fun. Super funny. Well.....the problem to the story was we walk in before it gets crowded and the servers at the bar decide to be fun and pick on us. Meaning, shots, and drinks. We had 3 hours to kill before Bill and Brian show up. The night got way silly. We danced, and had a blast. Sorry no pictures to post. It was one of those nights. Mama tied one on. Next morning Bill lectured me that he had to work. I said, Sorry. lol-I actually didn't drag him in there. HAHAAA-



Carmen and Randy joined us this weekend. They put these bags on your head...while you eat.



Kids cover your ears. That means you Kali....lol!
Bill's hat read : Only my balls are more wrinkled than this hat- blahhh haaaaaaaa-






Randy and Carmen- I love how the DANCE sign is above their head. Cute little things that just land in the background. cute.



Poolside as we sat out waiting for the guys to get done with show...a guy comes by and offers "Free chocolate covered strawberries"- Yum and super cool.




Our Valentines Dinner at Mortons. It was the perfect night...perfect food, and good friends.







The most expensive baked potatoe I've ever consumed. Ever.






My favorite Asparagus. Beyond yummy. Again, the most expensive Asparagus I've ever ever ate. lol!





For those that know me, I'm silly. I have a silly side. And little things can just crack me up. Everytime you get up to do anything, that server appears out of no where like a napkin fairy and folds it right up. We started testing her. My entertainment for the night. Forget the big-wig shows. That serves me well.





Our dinner shot. Why does it look like my head is falling off...? haha.






Heading by after dinner, back by Dicks. I opted to pass on the Stiff Drinks. But I liked the sign.






Look what cupid gave me. I love you Bill. I wasn't even expecting anything...and just like that...he's soo cute. He pops out with this gold box. Super sweet. I love it.




On to the show... There are some very cool clothing lines, along with the Steve Madden, and Lucky Jeans...you name it; it was there. And amazing people watching place.
The day I arrived at the show, this was white. By day 3....here's her work. Beautiful.



More awesome paintings....I notice I have this attraction to birds in paintings...This caught my eye. Total Street painting but sooo cool..




Ok....I've always said...Money sometimes makes people wierd. So this sign caught my eye. I love it. There was several rich wierdo's walking around. Skin and face pulled tight, super plump lips.....and the labels melting off their bodies. I guess if you're happy..





Me pointing it out.


I actually found some amazing new lines of clothing and accessories. Watches to be exact. I'm on the hunt to find them here. Fatal Booth here....going up. Take note to the picture. My feet up on a chair watching them work. Sorry. Bill kept saying, "Lisa's not here to do anything" She's on vacation. hahaha.. That's not me, but I did play that card all week and weekend...



The love of my life..working hard.




Finished product. Look at the hand in the left. Like we are superstars. They are asking for my autograph! haha
Bill did an awesome job with this new booth! You amaze me.
I felt like such a dork. Almost every girl walking around was half dressed, totally hot. I was about comfort...I was about doing what I wanted... and trying to look HOT at night...poor Bill. lol-

Great location. We were next to Steve Madden shoes. YUMMY!



Carey Hart and me again! Remember in my blog from last year at Tilly's event? Well here he is again. The coolest guy. He's married to Pink the singer. He owns Hart and Huntington. They had an awesome booth. Holly Madison was hanging at his booth.

Love this too. To all you survivors out there. And this quote means alot. Think about it.



Wish I could of bought this picture. It was in a booth. Bob Marley's booth..




One of my favorite musicians. Bob and Ziggy Marley - And THEE best booth at Magic.





And just like that it was done...I flew out to come home and see my two stars in the sky. I missed them more than they'll ever know. After the scariest flight home through a storm, I loved walking into my house, where my kitties greeted me, and a nice long bath, my candles and the comfort of knowing I WAS HOME. Good times, new friends and memories to last forever....

CHEERS TO FATAL.....YOU ARE BIG TIME ROCKIN WITH AWESOME SAUCE!
