Answer: What should you wear in Las Vegas?

Las Vegas is a very casual place, with that you can dress as comfortable as you want. Most restaurants do not have dress codes, however, if you are planning on a nice dinner at one of the more upscale restaurants you could be required to have a coat. Your best bet for clothing is simple;

In Summer you will need shorts, comfortable skirts, T-shirts. Jeans and trousers are not frowned upon but denim in 105 degree heat can be uncomfortable. If you are planning on seeing a show it might be wise to clean up a little and business casual is normally adequate. On more thing, remember, no matter the temperature outside the casino temperature will be somewhere around 68 degrees, it can get a little cool.

If you decide to walk make sure you wear sunscreen. If you sit by the pool, wear sunscreen. If you think about the sun, wear sunscreen! I might be exaggerating but the last thing you need is to burn that top layer of epidermis and be stuck in your room while on holiday. Protect yourself from the Southern Nevada sun with a simple layer of SPF 30 and you will be fine.

Do not forget the skin care products, the Southern Nevada sun can be brutal, Check out About.com's Guide to Skin Care[/link for packing tips to help your skin.

In Winter it gets cold and you will find yourself comforted with a heavy jacket at times. Unfortunately, the casino will be a constant temperature so you will have to shed some layers while sitting at that blackjack table.

In fall and Spring you will generally be comfortable with the summer attire and a few pairs of trousers or jeans. The temperatures get comfortable and the climate is pleasant.
