{Out & About} Long Weekend in NYC

1. Friday was epic. I went to the Morris-Jumel Mansion for The Loves of Aaron Burr: Portraits in Corsetry and Binding; the Metropolitan Museum of Art for Punk: Chaos to Couture and Impressionism, Fashion and Modernity (I liked the latter more than the former); AND to the Prada SoHo store to see costumes from the Great Gatsby on display. I also got lost in Central Park and walked 14 blocks south instead of walking a few blocks east.

2. Saturday I went to one of my favorite spots in all of New York City – the Highline! I love the concept – how they turned an old, elevated railway into a beautiful, elevated park. It’s so elegantly and expertly landscaped, and provides a beautiful way to observe the city. This statue is from a series called “Busted”, and was used with “modern printing processes” including 3D scanning!

3. The whole reason I came to New York – for a friend’s wedding! I love getting together with my college friends, and what better excuse than a wedding?!
