Clutter My World..in Vegas...again!

Hi everyone! Happy Father's Day to all of you fathers out there...it was a beautiful day in Boulder, I hope you were able to take advantage of the wonderful weather! Maybe you even got out with your family and came downtown to Clutter!!

Anyway, you know the saying...what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas? Well, that's not always necessarily true. Especially when you take a trip with your 23 and 17 year old daughters! My 23 year old daughter, Kelly, just got her master's degree in Environmental Biology at Tulane and will be working for the Bureau of Land Management in Las Vegas starting in August. I had the opportunity to take a quick trip with Kelly and my youngest daughter, Alex, to Vegas to look for apartments. There is actually a real and thriving community just outside of The Strip and there were lots of great apartments and neighborhoods to look at. The scenery is a bit different...lots of cacti and brown and beige dirt but there were "mountains" in the distance and wide open sky. It was actually quite pretty, albeit....Brown! I'm happy to report that Kelly did find an apartment that she likes and I'm sad to say that she will be moving there at the end of July...we'll miss her! It's a bittersweet time for me..I'm excited that she has a great opportunity and sad that she will be leaving Colorado.

Anyway, back to Vegas....the girls wanted to go see a show so we went over to the half price ticket "shop" to see what they had to offer. There were a lot of great shows to see...Cirque du Soleil, Jersey Boys, Lion King, etc. etc....and then there was Divas Las Vegas! Now, you can see a Cirque du Soleil in other cities, you can even see the Broadway shows in NYC and other cities as well...but you can only see Divas Las Vegas in Las Vegas!!

Divas Las Vegas is a female impersonator show and it's star is Frank Marino, who, over the past 25 years, has schticked and strutted as Joan Rivers!! I even heard a rumor one time that he has had plastic surgery to look more like Joan Rivers, but that's only a rumor. Anyway, his show highlights female impersonators who perform as Cher, Madonna, Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Liza Minelli, Tina Turner, Beyonce and Celine Dion to name a few. I'm not sure I would take young kids but it really was entertaining, totally Vegas and I would rate it an "R" due to profanity...but other than that, everyone is covered up and it's a great show! If you are ever in Vegas and want to laugh and smile, check out Divas Las Vegas www.frankmarino.com

Frank Marino is famous for his lavish on-stage wardrobe...many of the gowns he wears are designed by Bob Mackie and they are truly beautiful! He has a gown change every time he comes out on the stage...probably 10-15 times. Speaking of changes...almost every day, something changes at Clutter. We have furniture coming in and out constantly, almost as fast as Frank Marino changes his gowns! We have such fun re-merchandising based on what came in that day. Below is some of our new inventory...please come check it out!!
