Encore Beach Club: 28 Days To Pool Season Finale

Pool Season 2019 has officially started, and I spent the first-day basking in the sun at Encore Beach Club. I got myself bikini ready by following my 28 Days to Pool Season Workout Program that you can follow too! Here is a bit of a rundown on Encore Beach Club and how I feel about it.

Encore is a BEAUTIFUL property by itself. I love to have my friends stay here as they will NEVER be disappointed with the staff, their service, or their stay. I have not heard a single complaint ever from them on anything here. Encore Beach Club is no different. The staff is extremely friendly and professional. Security is tight to get through, they do a full bag search and metal detector scan and have a long list of items that are not allowed in...like selfie sticks...I had to toss mine out... and even though I had to throw something away I still thought the staff handled me with kindness and that is a HUGE DEAL to me.

The lines will be long, but they are easy to figure out and the staff is more than happy to help you figure out where you are supposed to be. The lines are usually set up like Guest List - General Admission/Ticket Holders - Cabana/Daybed rentals. I always recommend you buy tickets or get a table with your friends. Depending on how busy the day is, the guest list line could wrap around the stairs and by the time you get to the front of the line, you may have to pay anyways. For women, tickets are typically around $25 and around $35 for men, but a guest list is still a good option regardless. You will have to either be an all-girl group or have an equal ratio of girls and guys to get in on a list. Make sure to follow all instructions from your VIP host regarding guest list entry. My best advice is to show up early and bring a bottle of water or cocktail in a disposable cup to tide you over while you wait.

Attire is Pool Club standard. Wear your Bikini/Swim trunks under your sundress or shorts. No offensive sayings or slogans. And nothing that is obviously torn up. Sandals, sneakers, and heels all seem to be just fine for the day. I usually like to keep it casual and wear a comfy dress that's quick to put on and take off that I can still walk through the casinos with and some wedges. This day I stuck to these unique ankle boots and a pink dress I got from Ross for like $7! Lockers are available to rent, and they have a coat check where you can check items that you didn't know you couldn't bring (Like selfie sticks) and your coat. I HIGHLY recommend a travel size sunscreen, lotion and sunshades. There are showers near the back bathrooms if you have any problems with chlorine or...you just like to be extra clean.

Music choice here is typically house/some form of EDM or a good top 40 mix from world-class DJs. Wynn Nightlife doesn't skimp when it comes to entertainment. Every DJ in their line up is a chart-topping entertainer. From Kygo to the Chainsmokers and Diplo. It's ALWAYS going to be a great day here. The bar is usual Vegas Entertainment prices $8 shots, $15 mixed drinks, $11 beers and hundreds for bottles with a Food and Beverage minimum for the tables, cabanas and day beds. Tip your service staff, please.

For me, Encore Beach Club is a MUST and had to be the first place I started Pool Season 2019. Final words of advice are, buy your tickets or table in advance bring your sunscreen and shades and HYDRATE! We are all adults and know what alcohol does to us, but drinking and being active out in the desert sun makes it something new. It is VITAL you get some water in between your rounds. Take care of your self and have fun! We see you, don't catch a Vegas L.

Throw Back: That one time I competed in a pageant

Once upon a time, what seems like a long time ago I decided I wanted to be a beauty queen. It was definitely an experience I will never forget and I finally have the chance to tell you all about it! I've always known that I wanted to help people in some way, and one day it dawned on me if I had a crown that would definitely give me a much louder voice to speak on issues I thought were important. So, I went searching for what I thought was the best pageant for me and I landed on Miss Nevada USA 2016. The only thing I knew about pageants at this point was from the Miss Congeniality movie and what I heard about from my cousin's social media pages. So from that, I thought it was going to be a breeze...PSYCH! It was probably the most grueling process of self-discovery I've ever put myself through. My first step was figuring out how much all of this was going to cost. For me, it was a ridiculous amount that I just wasn't going to be able to make at my day job in...

The Crown and Sash - Quick April Photoshoot & Update

This year has been full of unexpected twists and turns. For me, it went from the excitement of watching my son turn 2 and all the development and fun that comes with it, deciding to compete in the Ms. Nevada Regency International Pageant and winning the title, and then the entire world getting rocked by the Coronavirus. While we are all staying safe by staying home, we've also found unique ways to stay connected and support each other while showing respect and love to everyone on the front lines keeping us safe, healthy and providing the services we need. I've spent this time doing a lot of learning! From pulling my guitar out for the first time in YEARS and taking advantage of the 3 Months of free classes offered by Fender , to taking classes offered through the Clark County Library District to improve on skills I need to bring my business back better than ever when we are safe. I've even taken a course from Yale on the Science of Wellbeing. But most of all, I'v...

Keep Your Digital Information Safe in the Time of Quarantine

If you didn't know me in real life, you probably don't know that I've spent about a decade in the Information Technology field, and a majority of that time working in Information Security. While we are all social distancing and staying inside, we are turning to the internet more than before to fulfill our social needs, make bulk purchases, learn new things and just kill boredom. With all of us spending so much extra time on the internet from our personal devices, let's take a quick minute to brush up on the safety of your Personally Identifiable Information (PII), and how to keep your connection as secure as you can. Here's a visual before we get right into it. Let's start with passwords. When I was actively supporting end users, I've seen horrifying practices like using "password" as a password and so many more. It is best to use a different password for every different login with an 8 character minimum using upper case, lower case, number...
