#OOTD: Rothko Chapel

I took a day trip to Houston with my friends, Robby & Amber, and we went to a bunch of art museums. Mainly, I wanted to go because of Rothko Chapel. It was everything I could've dreamt about and more. You can read more about Rothko Chapel here.

the Broken Obelisk pond

After a refreshing visit to the Chapel, we went to the Menil Collection and this piece was at the beginning of one of the installations. The installation was very boring but this piece was insane.

no photos please

We wondered some more and ended up at the Contemporary Arts Museum; this Andy Warhol sculpture was there!

and then we found a sculpture garden...

that's Amber

This was in the Rice Gallery at Rice University. It was popular company logos repeated, there was a video that went with it. The video felt forced to me but I enjoyed the floor part.

We caught lunch at Nippon, a Japanese sushi restaurant.

Overall, I had a lot of fun and this break was just what I needed. I was getting into a rut so this was a nice breather. I'd love to go back some time, but the drive is so far. It's not something I can just do every weekend; Houston is about 4 hours from where I live in Austin.

If you get the chance to visit the museums and more specifically Rothko Chapel, TAKE THE CHANCE. You won't be disappointed.

OOTD: Salute

My friend Robby came over and we decided to do a quick shoot (I didn't even wear this today shh don't tell anyone). We took the photos by the power plant on my campus where I took my senior photos and I ended up climbing in a chute that I wasn't supposed to as you can see below. It was pretty sketchy. I've worn this outfit before but never documented it anywhere so I decided to just redo it because cute. I also can't stop incorporating the Margiela for H&M clutch into outfits so it's here as well. This outfit is called...

SALUTE

What I Wore: New Year's Eve!

I've never really dressed up for New Year's Eve before, but this year I wanted to be pretty flashy, so flashy I was! I didn't intend to go home for the New Year and was basically going to spend it all alone (how depressing) but last minute, I changed my mind and made the drive. 

I met up with some friends and we headed over to another friend's house where we played games and brought in the New Year! Happy 2013 everyone!
