This weekend I finally wore the first skirt I hemmed with my new sewing machine! I will defineitly say it was not perfect but it was wearable. I got bundled up and took it for a test drive to the Brooklyn Museum were we saw a stellar exhibit Who Shot Rock and Roll. I highly recommend.
I loved this picture for two reasons: It was taken before Madonna was famous, a girl from her gym just snapped it because she looked so great. And I love that we are rocking a similar look, except mine is nipped and tucked. Madonna will ALWAYS be relevant.
I will love Kurt Cobain always and forever. I am a girl of the 90’s.
What started as a simple museum trip turned into chasing down buses, hopping around Brooklyn then Manhattan, drinking and eating WAY too much. And basically having a great Saturday.
