Thanks K-

Poorly constructed clothes are a no-no..Hmm, I'll just have to look for something here before I leave.

^^ The way I see it....they are so cheap, if it only lasts a month, I got my money's worth. As long as I find something that fits properly and looks good, I could care less if they don't last to long. But they don't look like cheap clothes. They look better than leg avenue stuff, and last just abotu as long. Leg avenue shit looks terribly cheap and poorly made. I erfuse to buy their stuff. This stuff is much better than them, and cheaper. But if you have several different outfits, and don't wear it every day, they last a lot longer. The outfit I posted is still in perfect shape, and I've had it a year now. I just don't wear it very often...

I'd like to check out that store and stock up on stripper clothes, if theres time. For $20 I don't mind wearing an outfit once or twice and then tossing it.

One of those shops on that little strip of stripper stores (is it on sahara or arville? can't remember) is great for accessories. They had rhinestone chokers in every color. I bought a bright blue one (matched the outfit in my avatar exactly) and always regretted not buying the bright white one. Another one sells Guens corsets, I think, and I got some really cute jewelry at another shop in that row of stores. Hopefully, we can swing by there at some point, I think you guys would like it. The stores are pretty unique. I find Showgirl Supplies to be rather common outfits. They have a store at every club with the same outfits in a bunch of different colors!

I really like Strings just off Arville. I've bought something there practically every time I've been to LV in the last, oh.....7 years or so :O

Kaylinn

I like Strings. That's where Guen sells her corsets! All their stuff is very well made, and it's more unique, instead of showgirls supplies that has 10 different outfits in 50 different colors.

I design clothing..that's one of the many things I do besides dancing..So I have a sharper eye than others do and out of place stitches, etc. bug the living shit out of me..I'm very anal about clothing construction. ;)
Oh and Leg Avenue shit sucks..It's rare to find a well made item.


I wanna go to Strings and the places LR mentioned..Hopefully there is time to fit that in..

I am so excited! Kaylinn, my bf and
I are out doing your Lush shopping right now! The first shop gave me lots of samples for you too, I hope the next one does as well.

Kaylinn
09-02-2007, 02:04 PM
Oh yay! My lush! I can't wait!

U still want me to try to get the show tickets, or say fuck it and do something else? My boyfriend said he can ask 2 other girls still.

So, I needed to book a massage and reflexology with my fave therapist, and the only time I could get her that would work at all was Wed at 1pm. That gets me done by 3pm (2:50). Will that give me time to get to the airbrush appt? Appt is at the Rio spa. If I need to cut the reflexology a few minutes short I suppose I can....how far is Rio from the airbrush place?

LatinaRose
09-02-2007, 02:42 PM
I think we should just say fuck it. We are doing our group dinner that night, then club hopping, not to mention the pool and airbrush tanning in the afternoon, and I hate trying to cram too much into the day. If we're bored and have free time, we can just go shopping :D But then I wasn't all that geeked about it anyway, so its really up to everyone else.

If we need another activity, I would love for us to go to Madame Tussauds wax museum. It would make for some fun pics to post up later - Jenna, Hugh Hefner, Tupac...I've always wanted to go all dolled up with a bunch of sexy bitches, lol. I don't think its too xpensive either.

Kaylinn, if you meet any promoters for LAX this weekends , please grab their card.

Kaylinn
09-02-2007, 02:42 PM
Not far, if you take backroads you can get from Rio to TI in under 5 minutes. Come out of the rio's back parking lot, make a right onto twain, then a left onto dean martin, then right up fashion show drive. TI is on the right, right there.

Kaylinn
09-02-2007, 02:46 PM
You know Britney is supposedly opening Lax. Wonder if she will actualyl show up or not. She's getting paid $83,000 for it....

LatinaRose
09-02-2007, 03:04 PM
She did open it Saturday night. I saw it on perez.

B you'll have plenty of time even if you don't get there til 4, you can just go last.

Also Weds day, Farrah can we hang out at your pool (HR)? TI's pool is kind of small. The airbrush lady said she doesn't mind going to 2 hotel rooms for us, so maybe she can do a small group in FHs room and a small group in our room. That would probabaly be easier than doing all 6 of us on one room and give B some more time to get there.

Bridgette
09-02-2007, 03:37 PM
Ok, so airbrushig is going to be at TI? Sweet!!

Katrine
09-02-2007, 04:51 PM
I think the dunebuggys might be a bit much. I just spent a shitload of money for this past weekend's rafting excursion, much more than I was originally told it would cost.

I think dinner would be a great way for everyone to meet because I've been to Circle Bar...the moment we walk in there we will be attacked by dudes hitting on us, and I want to get to know the SW group first!

LatinaRose
09-02-2007, 04:53 PM
^^Maybe if the restaurant has a bar area, we could have a little cocktail hour there before being seated for dinner.

Kaylinn
09-02-2007, 05:25 PM
Do we have to all meet at a high profile, strip bar?

There are tons of smaller, locals bars near the strip we could all meet up at and be undisturbed.

Even Pepermill on the strip has a very nice bar area, with a fire pit, nice area to hang out.

Even though I'm not going, just wanted to co-recommend the Peppermill!

I LOVE that place(lounge side). The best part is putting your tequila (or whatever drink) on the edge of the fire pit/jacuzzi thingy, and chugging your drink down warm!!!!!
Gotta love the plasma t.v.'s all around it too.

That is all:-X

LatinaRose

^^We're talking about meeting at an off-strip Russian restaurant.

ETA: Jayda and I posted at the same time, comment was meant for Kaylinn.

Kaylinn
09-02-2007, 05:34 PM
Oh yeah...I remember I saw that. It's confusing having the same discussion in 2 different places.

I'm cool with that. I love Russian food.

MY pool hahaha ! Please ladies I can't think of one spot that would turn us away ! ;D Anyway, I like the idea of spliting the airbrush chick between 2 rooms too ! OMG..I'mm so FUCKING excited ! I need this break and I can't wait to meet you ladies and reunite w/ old friends..

I heard the wax museum mentioned... Every time I see that on TV it looks so cool. If theres time I'd love to go take some photos there. Is that place on the strip?

Kaylinn

At Venetian

Bridgette

I am quite sure we can have drinks first at the restaurant - Kat said they have a bar and such.

Kat! Get that reservation! I'm sooo excited for this trip! Yay!

^^I know! I'm gonna have such a hard time sleeping tonight!! I'm packing Tuesday nights outfit and makeup in my carry on, I have this horrible fear of them losing my bag.

ETA: Know I'm running a bit late, just wanted to get as many of your phone numbers and see how far the schedule has come before I post. Phone numbers will be emailed out tonight, so you can print them and take them with you and the schedule will be up also.

You and me both ! I couldn't hardly sleep last night thinking about it ! At least I get in early tomorrow so HOPEFULLY, I can sleep before we all go out.

I'm trying to remember what I can take on board and what needs to be checked in..I think no liquids are allowed in carry on..right ??

As Las Vegas is my favorite place, please try not to tear up the entire town this week. Leave something standing for the rest of us. I'm sure there will be pics, but I wouldn't mind a trip report or two, also.


And remember-What happens in Vegas, ends up on SW, but don't let that stop you!! Have fun, ladies!

p.s. for FH: liquids, gels and aerosols must be 100ml. or less (3.4 oz) and in a quart sized, clear, zip-loc bag, and passed through x-ray out of your carry-on.

LatinaRose
09-03-2007, 08:32 AM
Yeah, make sure you pack your MAC lipglosses in your checked luggage or put them in a baggie! My girl had to throw away (the horror!) two lipglasses before getting on a plane.

My plans changed because of a work-related situation that I can't get out of.

I'm now arriving at 11PM on Wednesday evening, still leaving on Friday afternoon like originally planned.

Can't wait!

I'm so nervous and scared. I get all worried about social things...I'm really shy guys, so sorry if I seem like a loser! I'm excited too though! So many cool people to meet...

I'm starting to worry I'm going to panic, chicken out, and not get on the plane tomorrow...gah! But my tickets are nonrefundable. So I'll be there.

LatinaRose
09-03-2007, 09:48 AM
^^Don't be nervous! I promise you will have a great time. No reason to be nervous, you talk to us everyday. Nothing new, except alcohol and las vegas, which eases any social situation!

Katrine

Its a RUSSIAN restaurant. There will be NO problem socializing and drinking. However, in Russian culture, people begin their drinking around the table with "zakuski", or appetizers. This is how Russians can drink so much. You are not obligated to stuff your face, but what I'm hoping to do is get a huge round table in a private area, where people can also move about freely to mingle.

As a matter of fact, the zakuski will probably be filling enough to eat without needing a heavy second course. They consist of lots of plates of tasty appetizers that everyone shares (pass around the plates). So everyone can get a good sample taste of Russian cuisine without a heavy "buffet" style meal.

I also don't like buffets. Soooooo...I will call Artem's later and post more on Yahoo.....

A lot of these plates will likely be very big. Depending on how many people are there, we can probably get away without spending too much.

Plus, I recommend buying bottles too, save money on individual drink tabs.

I'm going to call and see about 8pm for Wednesday, approx 15 people?

Arrrgh, they're closed Mondays, plus it is labor day. The guy's voice on the answering machine sounds so drunk, lol! I'll see what they can do for us tomorrow.

Kaylinn
09-03-2007, 02:59 PM
I must get Potato Vareniki.

Wed. 8pm is perfect for me.


Oh..the airbrush tan I am gonna skip. Save money.


I got a question about the bottles we are gonna get at the strip clubs.
Usually, everyone always gets bottles of Vodka. Is this what we are probably gonna get?

I'm trying to budget my money for the week...and am trying to figure out how much money I wil need for liquor. I can't drink vodka, so will need to buy my own drinks if we order a bottle of vodka.

.

Vareniki are the shit!!! I have lots of good suggestions for everyone, depends on how picky the diners are. I don't see anything too crazy on their menu. I don't like caviar, and am the only russian on earth who doesn't. That's probably the wildest thing on the menu. Except for tongue, which is fucking deee-licious, if prepared properly.

Bridgette

Vodka is about all I drink these days. As for food, I'm up for just about anything ;D

I thought our bottles were comped at Eden and Seamless?? I'm not really one for buying a bottle (unless someone else is paying of course!). A bottle will go one round between all of us, so I'd rather buy my drinks individually or get guys to buy them for me. It's really a waste of money to try and split a bottle between 10+ people.

For the record, vodka is all I drink so I'm fine with that.

Zabrina
09-03-2007, 04:38 PM
Vodka's my drink too. Count me in for the bottle.

Katrine
09-03-2007, 05:55 PM
Are you talking about bottle service at the clubs? Because that's such a fucking ripoff. I recall that Pure charged us over $200 for a bottle of Absolut. We couldn't even finish is between the two of us and shared it with the group next table.

Kaylinn
09-03-2007, 06:07 PM
I thought that our bottles would be comped at the strip clubs?

I was asking because if we got a comped bottle of vodka, I would have to plan to buy my own drinks because I can't drink Vodka. That's only reason I was asking about bottles.

At night clubs we may go to...buying a bottle is a rip off. They usualy are 200-300 and will only last 1 round or so between 10 girls.

It also helps to pregame in the hotel room before you leave....
Drinks are $10 at clubs....so going out with a starter buzz helps immensly.

Bridgette's car broke down in Montana! She might not be able to make it.

Fuck!

Kaylinn
09-03-2007, 06:14 PM
Oh no, that sucks!
And today's a holiday - no auto repair shops open.

Hopefully she can get it fixed tomorrow and make it out here a little late.
I hope it's nothign to serious, and it's easily and cheaply fixable.

Zabrina
09-03-2007, 06:17 PM
The bottle of vodka would be from the Russian restaurant. The menu prices are $35-45, so if there are enough girls interested it would be a good deal.

As for a $200-300 bottles at the club...oh hell no! If we have 15-20 hot chics rolling into a club, it would be in the club's best interest to keep us there. I would hope they would comp us a bottle, but you are right one bottle of champagne would last about a sip for each of us.

Nooooo! I really hope she can make it! It's Bridgette, she can take care of herself, I'm sure she'll get out there one way or another.
