City Center
View from our room
This was taken looking straight up from the pool. It makes you dizzy!
Our hotel was actually more of a residential area. A lot of people live there. There was no casino and no smoking - two perks for vegas I suppose.
Our room/condo/hunny can we live here?
It was nice having our own kitchen.
Now for some random shots!
making, er, laying out by the pool.
Sparkly flats are good for dancing your booty off all night! Which, we did!
On top of Vegas @ Ghostbar.
The view was surreal. It was actually thundering and there was some rain and lightening too so the staff eventually scooted us all in to the inside of the bar where it was deemed safe. Once it stopped storming, we went back out :)
Cosmopolitan giant shoe statue!
I mean...
Aria buffet, BEST creme brulee!
We rubbed his belly for good luck
Little story to conclude this post:
We went to Stack (beautiful atmosphere) at the Mirage right after these pictures were taken and I was feeling really anxious and nervous. My heart was racing and I felt like I was going to faint. I could barely even eat my food. So my boyfriend took me over to the Waterfall just outside the restaurant because the sound and feeling of water just calms my nerves. He was rubbing my back and telling me everything was okay and that he loved me.
And then...
He pulled out a ring from his pocket and got down on one knee and proposed to me :)
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
There was a crowd that oohed and ahhed and clapped. I was so stunned! I had no idea he was going to do that! He thought maybe I had an idea but I genuinely didn't, I just have anxiety. Of course I said yes.
I will never forget that my long time love and now fiance asked me to marry him while I was wearing that red rose H&M dress with my beautiful Chanel bag. I know that sounds silly, but those little things do mean a lot.
Pretty eventful birthday vacation, huh?
♥ Noelle
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteVery happy for you!
I was wearing jeans and a tshirt and had just came home from getting my hair colored when my husband proposed to me in the middle of our kitchen! It's good too remember the details!
Awww, congratulations! I'm SO happy for you Noelle! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures. Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteHow cool! Love that huge stilettos so much! :)
ReplyDeleteƸ̵̡Óœ̵̨̄Æ·
Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!!!! I had a sneaking feeling that there might be a proposal!! That is SO cute! I am SO SO SO SOOOO happy for you and can't wait to see all the details unfold!! :)
ReplyDeleteOMG!!!! What exciting news - super-duper congratulations - and what an adorable proposal story :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your OOTD post - that yellow clutch and white top look SO gorgeous together.
Congrats Noelle! What an exciting trip! My husband and I are headed to Vegas next wkend for our 1 year anniversary!
ReplyDeleteAlso - where did you get your cute sparkly flats???
Thank you everyone! I'm beyond elated!
ReplyDeleteAnnie: The flats are from Nordstrom Rack! It was such a great find. They are from Vera Wang's Lavender label. She makes the best flats! These are super padded and comfy :)
First of all a big congrats on your engagement! So exciting!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics from Vegas, we were there in January and stayed at Aria...great rooms but I honestly didn't care for the hotel/casino overall. It felt cold, impersonal and totally un-vegas, even Haze Nightclub didn't do it for us! Though we did like Cosmopolitan and hung out there a lot more than at Aria. I suppose it's all a matter of personal opinion. I think I'm a Wynn girl myself!
LOVE your new Chanel bag too...you are one lucky girl!! :)))
OH MY GOODNESS, CONGRATS! I'm so happy for you!! It sounds like your trip was just so, so perfect. I think it's hilarious that you were feeling anxious right before he popped the question -- no wonder he suspected that you may have known, haha! ;)
ReplyDeletewow! congratulations! and i really looove your bag :)
ReplyDeleteAw, Noelle! Congratulations! I sort of had a feeling where your post was headed!
ReplyDeleteYou look especially pretty in the close-up of you and your FIANCEE! :)
CONGRATULATIONS NOELLE!!!!!!!! So excited and happy for you :) I had a feeling this was going to happen on this trip but didn't want to jinx anything, lol.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had an amazing time. Vdara definitely has a close to perfect location, the room looked gorgeous!
AHHHHH NOELLE!!! Congrats lovely! What and exciting time! And isnt the Aria amazing! You have a good man! im so happy for you love xoox
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! How wonderful it is to get a ring AND a chanel
ReplyDeleteNikosmommy: I still have yet to set foot in the Wynn! I took pictures of it from the outside and I have heard it's gorgeous! I think Vdara is a little different than Aria. We read bad reviews on the service at Aria so although a few months back we initially planned on staying there, we decided against it.
ReplyDeleteAmy: I know! Poor guy! I know he actually didn't plan on doing it the way it happened. But it was perfect because it was so us! We are kinda clumsy and dorky about things ;)
Andi: Gosh, everyone knew but me ;) I was so surprised. We have been together for so long that I think our family and friends have the attitude of "just do it already!"
Thank you for the well wishes girls, I really appreciate your sweet comments!

Congratulations Noelle. I was reading the deatails of your trip and was thinking "Wow, this would be such perfect trip for him to pop the question." I was right!! I don't think it gets much better! Chanel, engagement & Vegas!

CONGRATS LADY! what an amazing day - vegas, chanel, and diamonds - oh, and the man of your dreams! perfection.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! Can we see the ring???
ReplyDeleteAnon: It's actually getting sized because it was WAY too BIG! I hope to get it back soon. It's a very simple and small ring :) I'll try to feature it in an OOTD
ReplyDeleteit's always the thought that counts...no the size of the diamond! but congratulations again! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your engagement x
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! How exciting :)
ReplyDeleteWhere is your ivory top from? Love it!
MJ: Thank you! The ivory top is from the BP section of Nordstrom. The brand is hip. I'm not sure if it is still available, but I have seen many similar tops!
