The Poker Champ
There are a lot of excellent female poker players in the professional scene. Of course, all of them have unique personalities and styles, but you notice a couple of common traits here and there when you watch the competitions. Some of the richest female poker players, for example, all bring similar accessories with them when they compete that help them play better and stay focused. So, if you want to emulate the look of a poker champion you’re going to need some designer sunglasses, a hoodie or badge with your sponsor’s logo on it (preferably a poker website) and some shimmery nail polish and rings to distract the other people at the table. If they’re looking at your hands then they won’t notice if you let your poker face slip. For some added realism, bring your ipod to listen to at the tables. You’ll often see poker players with their earphones in while they play because background noise distracts them from the game. Also, if you’re going to rock the casino as a poker champ it might help if you actually know how to play poker first, so make sure you read Ladbrokes’s poker strategy guide before you start putting your look together. There’s no better accessory for a poker champ look than some killer poker skills.
Going traditional
Traditional casino fashion was all about sophistication, glamour and class and although casinos these days allow more casual attire, that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t take advantage of the opportunity to get your glam on. You’re going to need a dress that’s tight, glittery, possibly transparent, and for a more classic look it should reach the floor. Once you’ve got the dress then move onto the accessories, which should look just as expensive as your dress, if not even more expensive. Diamonds and pearls are always welcome at a casino and if you manage to match them with some long gloves and a fur coat then you have nailed the casino fashion.
The Bond girl
‘The Bond girl’ is the hardest look to recreate because it’s about more than just the clothes. The Bond girl get up is all about attitude. You need to look like you’re hiding a pistol in your garter belt. You’ve got to look dangerous, but in a subtle way. Like the traditional casino fashion, a long sexy dress is the traditional attire with the difference being that you have to dial the sexy up to ‘11’. You should introduce yourself as having an exotic name like ‘Ivanna Kizzyuu’ and wear sharp, dark eyeliner. You get bonus points if you drink straight vodka and know how to fly a helicopter.
I got married in Las Vegas so have been to my fair share of Casinos, some you dress up and some are a bit more relaxed. Have you ever been to a Casino?

I've been to Vegas and walked along the Strip but I was too young to go into the Casinos, haha! I would love to get dressed up and go though.
ReplyDeleteI love this post. I'm going to Vegas in February.
ReplyDeleteAh this brings back memories of my trip to Vegas a couple of years ago - it was great. I've also been to a casino which was great - I like playing Black Jack - I wouldn't mind playing Black Jack in a dress like that...just gotta get the figure to match!
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing! I never considered this. Though, we have casinos in town which are very casual, but the big ones, I guess you do need to look the part :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love a chance to get all dressed up!
ReplyDeleteI've visited a few in my teen years... I almost took a job in one but it was a bit too far for me to travel :-)
ReplyDeletethat sequin dress is stunning.I have no idea how to play poker or any casino games so I would just watch and drink cocktails :)
ReplyDeleteI like that dress. What a beauty. Would love to visit Vegas one day.
ReplyDeleteThat black number would certainly wow! This is such a glam outfit, I'd love the chance to wear it :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow I am loving that outfit it looks so sleek and sophisticated. I've been to a casino but luckily they didn't have much of a dress code.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to go to Vegas! I love the entire outfit you picked, probably something I'd do for! xo
ReplyDeleteWow!! love the look all together!! I have never been to a casino and I don't own any clothes that I think would be suitable
ReplyDeleteI've been to Vegas before but wasn't technically old enough so I wanted to blend in haha. Definitely want to go now I'm old enough x
ReplyDeleteI have been to one on a cruise ship, and it was awesome - I even won! Kaz x
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful look you've put together, perfect for a visit to a glitzy casino. I absolutely love that long, black dress and the shade of red lipstick is spot on. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous look! I love the idea of getting glammed up to go to the casino. I'd like to think I look rather glam when i go but I tend to go to the Casino at the end of the night xo
