You can't really see the earrings in the photo above so I added this photo below - I've worn these earrings almost every day since I got them! Finding a Bendels in Las Vegas was wonderful :) [Get the earrings here!]
Jenn and I got our nails done and then went to lunch before saying goodbye! It was a great spring break and always fun to see the bestie.

After having a TON of fun in Las Vegas, (see this outfit post, and this post or this post for pics!) I went to Denver for the second leg of the trip to visit my best friend Jenn. I went to Denver for my Spring Breaks last year and the year before as well! It was nice to catch up and slow down from the previous weekend.  We went up to Daniel's Park near Denver and took photos by the gorgeous view.

AND, Jenn went dark with her hair! Take a look:

vegas, according to my phone (tons of new pics!)


I posted some photos from my Vegas trip last week, but just uploaded the many photos I took on my phone! Most of them are from when we were out at night (so fun) because I didn't want to haul around my DSLR. Ahhh, I miss Vegas so much. I cannot WAIT to go back! Whenever that is...which I am hoping is soon. :D

First pic I took was at the airport - I was so thirsty and regretted not bringing a water bottle! Good thing Starbucks gives you free water....
Outside the Paris hotel:
Bathroom pic....haha
 Inside the Paris hotel. Gorgeous!!! I loved the painted sky. It was light and didn't feel like nighttime. I want to go to the real Paris, so visiting the hotel was fun.
 Sorry....not going to take a $2 peppermint in the bathroom.
 We went to Stripburger and it was really yummy.
 In our Gonzaga gear before the semi-final game!
Palm trees and 80 degrees. The life. (It was 75, but still - it was close).
The Chandelier Room at The Cosmopolitan. I so wanted to take one of the sparkly strands! But I didn't. It was so beautiful. And you know me, I love lots of sparkle.
They were measuring the length of their legs compared to their torsos....haha.
The Strip at night:
Hey, the Starbucks barista spelled my name right! This almost never happens since there are so many ways to spell Ally.
 Forever 21 had this adorable pink french bulldog makeup case I could not resist getting it!

 Spring Break was such a nice break for me. All of my midterm exams, mid-semester projects, and papers were due before break so I just got to relax and have fun. Spring Break was the perfect time for me to reflect on what I want in life, what I want to do after graduation, and spending time with some amazing Gonzaga people.

I love the vegas

Remember the episode from the first season of The OC where they go to Las Vegas, and Seth always says, "I love the Vegas."? Well, I love the Vegas. Here are a few photos from my trip:
The Venetian is gorgeous! Since all of us studied abroad in Italy, we enjoyed seeing the hotel inspired by the beautiful Italian city.
We had a tailgate outside before the big final game! It was cool to see a bunch of Gonzaga basketball fans - current students, alumni, and even parents showed up to the tailgate. Then, of course, Gonzaga won the WCC tournament! Number ONE! :)

 

^^^ We were excited to go to In N Out, since we don't have it up north!
