Welcome to another exciting issue of Chic Compass magazine! Our theme for this issue is Magic in the Air. With all that we offer you this time, you will discover that each article has its own magic.<\/p>\n

Melissa Manchester graces our cover and shares some of her insights and what she has accomplished through her years of creating music and teaching music to aspiring musicians. Even more fascinating is seeing how Melissa recreates her past successful songs into new ones with a different twist. It is an article you may want to read several times.
\nAs always, fashion is a significant part of our magazine. We share stunning photos of Anna Gupta\u2019s fashions taken by famous photographer Jaime Lim. In addition, Jaime Lim showcases a hauntingly beautiful fashion extravaganza, \u201cWhite Wedding Dresses,\u201d by the famous Canadian duo Parvesh Jai.<\/p>\n

A surprising story about the \u201cbest wines coming from the desert\u201d will take you to Henderson\u2019s Grape Expectations, Nevada\u2019s School of Winemaking, the only one in Nevada. Learn how you, too, can become a winemaker. Grape Expectations is the place to go to take you back in time when it was essential to relax and enjoy a glass of outstanding white or red wine at the end of the day. Grape Expectations has it all; see it for yourself.<\/p>\n

Nothing uplifts our souls like stunning art. Elisa Terry and her photography take our breath away, while Neal Portnoy\u2019s creations make us wonder how anyone has the talent to catch a person\u2019s personality so cleverly. Artist Renata Bosnjak uses her talent to bring you into her paintings to connect to the soul of her subject. Then there is Miguel Julio, a delightful celebrity make-up artist who instills our respect for his vocation.<\/p>\n

Marilyn\u2019s Project demonstrates the importance of caring for the needs of others. It is a story that all women can relate to and urges us to give a nod and silent hurrah to Wendi Schweigart for all she is doing.<\/p>\n

Entertainment is king in Las Vegas, and we have some to share with you. Reckless is Vegas is a fabulous group of entertainers you\u2019ll want to see and stamp your feet to their beat. Unique Kevin Lepine and his fun, hypnotic talent is a must-see.<\/p>\n

Market, Market, Market unfolds some of the mystique of what it is and who is behind it to make it run smoothly. It makes us realize how fortunate Las Vegas is to have Market here, drawing clientele from all over. On the business side, Joe Amato\u2019s new business column stimulates the entrepreneur in us.<\/p>\n

A story about New York City is always fun, making you want to load onto a plane and see everything yourself. Something new here in Las Vegas always draws our attention, and what better than to visit the new boutique hotel, The English Hotel, in the arts district? It is the dream of Todd English, the renowned chef who heads his restaurant, Olives, inside the Virgin Hotel in Las Vegas. We are so fortunate to have him bring Olives back again with his mouth-watering creations.<\/p>\n

Once again, our multi-talented writers have done a splendid job bringing us stories that demonstrate there is magic in all we do. I can\u2019t wait for you to see that inside this edition of Chic Compass magazine with each piece you read. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did to create it for you.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n
