by goingsolo Vegas is excruciatingly hot in the summer. And forget all that talk about "its a dry heat" 110 degrees is hot no matter how dry it is.
Bring a bathing suit. And comfortable shoes, preferably sneakers. I had a pair of cute jelly sandals which melted on the pool deck. Before that, the vinyl cut into my foot and created some bad blisters. Skip the fashionable shoes and wear well broken in sandals or sneakers. Also, sunblock and a hat as, in case I didn't mention it, its hot out here.
Load up on sunblock and moisturizer. Did I mention that its hot here? Its also a dry heat, which can dry out your skin, so be prepared. Leave a Comment

 I love this movie by BreezyJones 1 large bag on wheels Don't pack to make your room your home. You will not be spending much time in the room anyway. In fact, you may only get 3 or 4 hours of sleep a day if you sleep at all.
1 really fancy outfit with shoes 4 comfy outfits with comfy shoes bathing suit leave the jammies at home, you won't be sleeping much anyway. Don't pack much. Lets face it, you are going to buy Las Vegas T-shirts, jackets, hats
The hotels have most of this stuff complimentary including blow dryers in each room. But you will need sunscreen and shades.
Must bring your camera
Be real careful of the sun and the heat if you are not used to it. Always carry water with you and a hat isn't a bad idea either although you will probably be buying one that says Las Vegas on it.
Don't pack alot of stuff. We have everything here that you may need and most of it is free. You will be buying alot of souviners so leave lots of room in your bag. When it's hot, it's hot, but when you go into the casinos, they keep them pretty cool. You can wear anything anytime here. Look to your left, there will be someone with a tux and a bride on his arm, look to your right and you will see a couple chicks with just their bathing suit tops and some tacky shorts with a bad hair dye job. It just doesn't matter how you dress here, the fashion police refuse to have anything to do with Vegas. Sometimes you'll look around and think you've walked into the cast of Rocky Horror.

 Some might call this dressing to impress by goingsolo Most nighttime places are casual in Vegas. Some restaurants do have a dress code. As for everything else, I saw people casually dressed at shows and in the casino at all hours. As for some of the most popular clubs, there is a dress code of sorts. I'm not sure if it includes any of the outfits in the picture, but the people hitting the club scene were dressed up. Leave a Comment

by slaybelle What to wear: Yes, Las Vegas is in the desert. And, yes, the temperature gets to be about 115 degrees in the summer. But if you happen to be visiting in the winter (usually from Halloween to Valentine's Day), don't be fooled. A jacket is definitely recommended, especially if the wind is blowing. We know our blood is probably thin from living here, and we may not get blizzards, but consider this your warning -- it's a lot colder here than you'd think.

by 100ACRE . ADVICE FOR MEN: During the day, anything goes! Shorts and t-shirts (even tank-tops) are okay in the nicer hotels. At night be ready for anything. You may--on the spur of the moment--decide to hit a nice bar in a 5-star hotel; so wear 'nice casual' in the evening (e.g. long pants, shirt with a collar, comfortable yet dressy shoes). It could mean the difference between a 5 or 45 minute wait for a table. ADVICE FOR WOMEN: Likewise. Leave a Comment

In summer it goes without saying, shorts and Tee shirts are what is appropriate. Some dressy clothes for night. In spring, winter, fall, Jeans, and long sleve shirts, and light jacket would be good. It is kind of cool then.
None special needed. Leave a Comment

Bring clothing for hot weather, but don´t forget the sweater - you´ll need it inside the casinos. Sometimes, the town gets hit by sandstorms - IF you plan to go outside then, pack a windjacket. Leave a Comment

Dress is pretty casual here. Shorts are de rigueure during the day. The temps cool off at night, so be sure to have a sweater or a light jacket. Evenings out can be quite dressy, however, especially if you paid $80 or more for your show ticket. So you'll probably want to pack at least one nice outfit.
The sun is strong even in winter, so be sure to pack a sun screen. Leave a Comment

by dinhyen I like Las Vegas much better in the fall and winter. In mid-summer, temperatures can reach up to 100+ in the shade! So bring breezy and light-colored clothing and plenty of H2O. That said, the heat here is a dry heat, so goes the cliche. I actually found it to be very bearable, even though I'm used to the temperate climate of the northeast. You will get acclimated to the heat if you spend enough time outdoors and have adequate preparations. Dashing in and out of air-conditioned casinos isn't the way to do it.
Las Vegas is most beautiful and colorful at night, when the neons can light up the night. Needless to say, you'd need a tripod to capture all of its glitter. Leave a Comment

The first time we went, it was Jan. For some reason, I thought it would be somewhat warm. To my surprise, it was in the 30's and 40's the 3 days we were there. My light jacket just barely kept me from freezing! The next time we went, it was April---I wanted to make sure it was warmer! It was, that time it was upper 90's and low 100's the 3 days we were there! The next 'free' trip was August---it was up around 110 2 of the 3 days, but really didn't seem that bad after upper 90's in the Midwest with the high humidity!
A digital camera is great for the night shots. You know right away if you have a good picture or not---unlike with 35mm. You'll get better pictures if you shut the flash off. Leave a Comment
