Hello lovelies, Mama's back with Vegas recap 2011. It was a quick and dirty trip but I survived (though my dogs are still barking from all the walking I did.) Note to self, just because the Kardashians can manage to traipse through the airport in high heel boots doesn't mean Mama can or should. Sore feet is NO way to start a shopping walking tour of Vegas.
We stayed at Aria Hotel in the new City Centre. Yes its a beautiful hotel, but also extremely modern and we couldn't help but feel that it was missing the charm and kitschy over-the-topness that Vegas is known for. I think that Wynn (where we stayed last January) has the perfect mix of Vegas flair and contemporary sophistication (in my extremely valuable opinion.)
At the mega huge CES Consumer Electronic Show (the reason we were in Vegas), Husbands company HSTi, with their Wireless Media Stick, was voted the Best Android Accessory of the CES 2011 by Android Central. Yeah, I'm a bit stoked!
I'm not gonna lie, we ate a lot and one of our fave restaurants was Julian Serrano Tapas. We had fabulous Ceviche, Tapas and of course a super delicious Paella. Muy sabroso!
Later we went to Haze, the main club in Aria.
Feathers, rhinestones and fabulous
Drugs, Rock and Roll, Bad Ass, Vegas Hoes, Late Nights, booty Calls, Shiny Disco Balls...
Only one pic of Mama. Husband never remembers to take pics...
The music was pretty amazing and even better when Maroon 5 hit the stage at around 1:30am. While we were standing in the casino I saw Adam Levine ( pure hotness) and band walk by, I had to seriously do a double take but then there they were later that night playing a few songs in Haze. Prerequisite Vegas celebrity sighting- check!
I wished I'd taken more pics while I was there but Husband had our camera in his briefcase and my crackberry takes terrible pics. So this is all I can share for now. The best is yet to come though, next post is dedicated to the shop shop shoppping recap. Stay tuned kids...

That food looks so good! It looks like you had a great time. Handsome hubby!
Looks like a blast! I can't wait to go back to Vegas. Your man looks great in a uit - hot couple!
wow that club you went to looks amazing! and I've seen maroon 5 perform live before, never was that big fan of their songs but damn they put on an AWESOME SHOW!
Fun pics!!
My boss was at that same convention for Xerox.. I would have loved to gone!! Can't wait to see all the goodies you bought.
Huge congratulations are in order! Whoo hoo for your hubby!
I love Vegas, and I'm not a very big partier. There is so much to see and do! I love the mall inside Caesar's. I also really like going to shows. The wax museum is always fun, too! (Do you hear that? The "Nerd Alert Alarms" just went off. Ha ha!)
Glad you had fun!
xoxo
P. S. My husband always forgets to take pictures, too. LOL! I wish we could have a professional photographer follow us around. I often don't make it into pictures because I'm the one holding the camera!
Looks like you had an awesome time. So jealous about Maroon 5, how cool is that. Love the food pics, Vegas has such great restaurants. Can't wait for the shopping update.
I WANT TO GO TO VEGAS!!
You can't help but have fun in Vegas and it looks like you had a lot of fun! Can not wait to see where you went shopping! I hope you found something fantastic!!!
I think it was a fabulous trip!! I hear the shopping there is amazing
Hiiiiii, so glad youre back! Your post makes me want to go to Vegas (like going to Italy first and then taking a plane to Vegas in Rome sigh).
Don´t worry, my husband never takes pictures of me, except in the red dress on NYE, means I need more Lanvin dresses.
Paella looks really good and so does ...hubby ;) Really handsome. But I love the picture of you the most, you look like a celebrity !
Van´t wait for the shopping post...I bet I want everything you got.
Sorry for the typos, it´s Thursday morning and I´m just drinking my first latte...but I always wake up after the second one xx
It seems tha you had so much fun sugar!!!
I'm so happy for you!And the fact that you were out without the little ones makes it more interesting!!
kisses and hugs
Looks and sounds like a successful trip! So jealous you got to see Maroon 5!
Your dark hair looks Fabulous! (Pasta not included.) tee hee
You and your hubs are so adoreable! I have still never been to Vegas and I am super jeals. My plan was to go this year but I just HAD to go and get preggo....oh well, maybe next year!!!!
i've never been to aria but i hear it's really nice.
i too usually eat way too much in vegas. i can't help it...the food there is top notch!
as is the shopping.
Looks like you had a fantastic time. And I like the crackberry pictures - they're more authentic!
I can't wait for your shopping post! And so jealous you were there when Adam Levine sauntered on by...
The Aria is beautiful, but I agree that it is missing the Vegas charm. I prefer to stay at the Bellagio. I am so jealous that you saw Adam Levine, I think I would have had a heart attack.
Wow amazing, congrats to husband's company! Looks like a fabulous time!
sounds like a blast. vegas is flipping awesome. and adam levine is just delicious.
