J’adore les Flamands roses.
C’est l’une des raisons pour laquelle j’ai choisi de séjourner à l’hôtel Flamingo.
L’autre raison, c’est parce que c’est l’un des premiers casinos de Las Vegas, et qu’il possède quelque chose en plus que les autres: une histoire et une esthétique rétro.
Et la dernière raison, c’est parce que j’aime tout simplement le rose !
J’ai passé quelques heures sur le bord de la piscine, et être la seule en maillot une pièce ne m’a absolument pas surprise.
Par ailleurs, je dois avouer que Las Vegas a le plus beau ciel bleu que j’ai jamais vu. Pas un seul nuage en vue, incroyable !
N’empêche, quand vous voyez tout ça, difficile à croire que vous vous trouvez en plein milieu du désert !

I love flamingos.
This is the first reason why I choosed to stay at The Flamingo Hotel.
The second reason is because it’s one of the first Casino in Las Vegas, and has something more than the others: a great vintage aesthetic and history.
And the third and last reason is because I just love pink !
I spent a few hours by the pool, and was not surprised to see I was the only girl in a one piece bath suit.
By the way I have to say Las Vegas has the most beautiful blue sky in the world. Not a single cloud, pretty amazing to me !
And when you see all this … damn, it’s hard to believe you’re right in the middle of a dry desert !

I love your one piece! I love Vegas and the Flamingo Hotel absolutely fascinated me. I loved how retro it is.
Brigadeiro le September 1, 2009 a 6:54 pm . .
What stunning photos! LOVE your one-piece! So glam! ;)
If you don’t mind my asking, what camera and lense do you use (and what software to edit the photos)? LOVE the vibrant colours! (although I know it’s usually more about the photographer than the equipment, but I’m curious) :)

reckless daughter le September 2, 2009 a 12:06 pm . .
las vegas is always good for a pair of cheesy sun glasses and/or a t-shirt. I am sure you look 100 times better than any one at the flamingo swimming pool! that swimsuit is gorgeous!
PS: las vegas does have beautiful blue skies but usually in August & September the late afternoons are filled with spectacular thunderstorms and lots of rain. then it clears up again.
Dottie le September 2, 2009 a 12:23 pm . .

(même si je suis juste entrain de baver devant mon ordi en me disant “rrooo la chanceuse!” ^^ ) non, non en fait j’ai deux petites questions à te poser: en fait j’aime bien le dessin de mode (comme passe temps car la mode n’est pas ma vocation) et je voudrais savoir si il y a un crayon particulier pour cela (en gros le matériel que tu me conseilles). Ensuite je voudrai savoir quel logiciel utilises tu pour retoucher tes photos (si bien sûr tu les retouches!) Voilà merci d’avance de tes réponses! ;)
