Manus x Machina at the Met

Trying to enjoy my last month of pregnancy (and my freedom). So the husband and I who staycationed this MDW took to the Met, because everyone knows, all New Yorkers try to escape NYC during any long weekend. That luckily means that the city empties out and you can actually enjoy certain attractions without as much as congestion.

The exhibit was fantastic. It's amazing what some of the haute couture designers can do with 3D printing, laser cutting, and of course, their hands. The exhibit was broken out into sections - flowers, embroidery, leather, lace, pleating etc. This costume exhibition will be open until August, so if you're in the city during the Summer, this is a must see at the Met! This exhibit truly gave me an appreciation for fashion as an art.

Preggers in the City

You might notice something different. These last 9 months have been a challenge to take decent outfit pictures, and delving into finance and fashion issues due to perpetual exhaustion, back aches, stomach cramps, and walking around this city that I love so much, but is filled with incredibly inconsiderate and angry people. No worries though, I'm surviving! Because for each cranky New Yorker, there's a kind hearted New Yorker, which is what makes loving and hating this city so easy! We just started having a stroke of good weather this MDW. So here we are outside again.
