Saturday Inspiration at the Met

Rainy weekends are among my favorite times; rainy mild Saturdays are such inspiring times in the middle of the sweltering summer. And any weekend morning is perfect for museums. But when you add them together, everybody and their mother flocks to the nearest museum! Knowing how to find inspiration and peace in the midst of poncho-draped tourists takes experience, and I am here to offer it!

I recently edited one of my father's old work jumpsuits with some fun ruffles to add a bit of design detail and whimsy! Nothing excites me like wearing artistically inspired design around great art! 

George and I recently History Refused to Die at the Met, and just so happened to go on a rainy Saturday morning right when it opened. The line literally ran down the block, but we managed to get in pretty quickly using our favorite entrance. We hopped around to several galleries, stopping at some of our favorite works along the way. 

See some of our pictures for tips on where to go to avoid lines and crowds while still seeing some of the most impressive art in the world!
