5th Av.

My friend took these cheeky shots of me earlier today whilst we were walking around 5th Av.

Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty

 

  

    

(Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY)

I can't believe I was actually lucky enough to see this exhibition. It has to be one of the most breathtaking collections of history I have ever seen.
I purposely tried not to over-edit these shots so you could get a feel of how eerie it was walking through the 6, or so rooms (curated by the genius that is Andrew Bolton) showcasing McQueen's 19 year contribution to fashion. Imagine dark-lit rooms, a spine-chilling score and echoes of distressed voices- perfection. What was more disturbing were McQueen's quotes, highlighting his depression, angst and obsession with death.



Note. These shots are actually contraband, because you aren't actually allowed to take photos in the exhibition... but I just couldn't help it. So, please link back to me if you use any.

Black on Black on Black

1. Lace shorts- $16.99 in one of those 'sexy party time' shops.

2. Vintage flatforms- $16.50 at Beacon's Closet. I think they belonged to a granny, and definitely need to dye them black.

3. Rayban 2140 54mm- A necessity.

Just a few things I picked up in New York. But for those that know me better, I'm most excited about these:

New York was AMAZING to say the least.

I'll do a visual diary post later on in the week, as well as show you the shots I took at the Met x Savage Beauty. But, for now I'm off back to bed, as I'm super jetlagged- yuck!
