YOUR DASHING VEGAS SELF: We expect that you're still very you when you arrive in a flashy Las Vegas casino, because people should always be themselves, one of the first and truest lessons of life. That said, the general feeling that one should grow slightly sparklier, and ever so glittery, while visiting Sin City, is not only a mood transmitted by Vegas advertising: Walk into any Sin City venue and the flash/dash element is fairly high, from what people are wearing to what they're sipping to the big-o-sity of the stage shows and concerts. (Is "big-o-sity" a word that goes far enough, though, to describe a show rife with sequins, searing guitar solos, and props that descend from ceilings?) And when one ups their flash/dash, dress- or suit-wise, one tends to daydream of returning to one of the famous suites that one has seen on various cable shows detailing the glamorous life of high rollers. But how to get in? Must one visit the Baccarat table and win big? Should one book a private jet to arrive in, the better to nab a suite booking? It could be as simple as booking a room and, some time later, being chosen as the person who wins a night in such a suite. That's currently happening at the Palms Casino Resort where...
THE STAY TO WIN PROMOTION: The swanky upshot is this: Book at room at the Vegas hotel by the end of January and be automatically entered in a drawing. If you book a superior guestroom you could win an upgrade to a Celebrity Suite. If you reserve a premier guestroom or Palms Place Studio you could win a stay in the Crib Suite or Hot Pink Suite, among others (the Hot Pink Suite, by the by, has a Barbie theme). And if you reserve an ivory suite, grand suite, or Palms Place Studio one bedroom you may find yourself following a bellman and your luggage into the Kingpin Suite, which boasts two bowling lands.
SO IS THIS THE YEAR... that your Vegas room matches your on-the-casino-floor fashions? Where your personal dash is mirrored in the high-flying suite you return to later in the evening? For all of the promotion's details and asterisks, strut this way, snazzy players.
