Las Vegas: Never Trust The Weather Channel
Having heard news that there were chances of thunderstorm in Las Vegas, I was prepared to spend my stay in dreary rainy weather. But no. What kind of meteorologist says that it’ll rain…in the desert. Take no heed to anyone who says it’ll rain in Las Vegas. Today I baked and toasted under the hot desert heat like an omelette on a grill.
I arrived yesterday to our modest but rather very large hotel 15 mins off the strip at South Point Hotel Casino & Spa. The rooms are large and comfortable, very clean, huge plasma screen and a great view over the hotel’s pool.
But enough about hotel and comfort talk, let’s talk fashion and shopping in Las Vegas.
As I mentioned in my previous post, Las Vegas is building CityCenter on the Vegas Strip right next to the Bellagio Hotel. It’s slated to open in 2009 and construction has already been underway and had progressed much faster than I had anticipated. This patch of land already has the infrastructure to a near completion, a few of the buildings are already halfway through putting on the glistening silvery windows. CityCenter will definitely stand out in the Strip as I noticed many other buildings may be flashy with lights, but many are covered in gold mirror like windows. CityCenter will be all silver mirrored.
100 Men Shop Without Shirts at Abercrombie & Fitch
Real men and they’re quite a good looking bunch! Seriously!
While Dove may have its campaign for Real Beauty for women, here’s a group of men who decided to mock fashion’s own ideals and objectification of men at an Abercrombie & Fitch store.
Part of an improv stunt, 111 men have gathered together to pull a stunt in NYC’s Abercrombie & Fitch store by shopping without their shirt on. For those unfamiliar with A&F’s gimmick, the provocative American store hires male models to stand in the store half naked and well sculpted. You can read about the whole event on their special blog post.
