yet more reasons i will pine for china :

something fluffy for today's post, kidlets.
i'm feelin the need for fluff.

the design details around china are really pretty elevated.
from the shopping bags from joyce (joyce. sigh.):


to the club level art displays:


to the red junks still motoring in the harbor:


i kinda liked getting my laundry back, gift wrapped:


to actual shagreen door pulls:


oh, the endless floral displays. i mean, art.


to the endless finishes applied on each wall, but with great deliberation:



to perfect . . . hallways!


even the balustrades make you stop:


ah, my favorite. "terraced" limestone striped walls:

You get your laundry back like that? I'm firing my damn maid.

Wait, I don't have a maid. I'll have to go to the local Embassy Suites and harrass one there.

I would start wrapping my laundry up, but somehow using newspaper and rope doesn't seem quite as "fancy pants" as yours...
