Macau

1 09 2009

Caught Zaia, the Cirque du Soleil show for The Venetian Macao. Absolutely loved the dream like theme in comparison to KA which was fiery, exciting, just more of everything. While my jaw was at my feet, I recall thinking who conjures up productions of this nature. Must be one hell of a creative.

Chloé Edith in Whiskey assists me in my façade as “I’m a career woman, hear me rawr!

What is missing is a combination of both, a perfect marriage of classic elegance and woefully unrealistic fashion. Herein lies my problem.

Over the last couple years, a series of flight mishaps has caused me to be exceptionally early for the red eye. While waiting for the gate to open, I was drawn by hypnotic and sweet sirens from the House of Chloé
