Summer Fun: Museums

Museums are a must see this summer, they keep you cool from all of the outside heat and most of all you learn so much from all of the exhibits.

My favorites thus far:

The Bronx Museum: Road to Freedom and After 1968 ( great photo exhibit and I'm going to see it again with friends!)

Miami: Bass Museum of Art

Brooklyn Museum of Art: From the Village to Vogue, Andy Warhol: the Last Decade, The Mummy Chamber and so much more

Metropolitan Museum of Art (MET): American Woman, Picasso, Doug + Mike Starn on the Roof: Big Bambu, Epic India: scenes from the Ramayana and so much more to see (It will probably take a full week to see everything).

Museum of Art and Design: Portable Treasuries and Dead or Alive: Nature Becomes Art

Now go and visit to see what exhibits are your favorites. Share the love!

Miami Heat

The four days I spent in Miami were fabulous and my oh my the drinks were great for the heat. I loved being away at the beach, having cocktails on the rooftops and dining in the middle of the market way. Now I know I can do all of those things + more here in NYC but it's a whole different experience when you don't have to listen to loud vehicles in the mix. Oh Miami you will truly be missed!

Madame's Look Book: Park in California Vintage

A couple of weeks ago while waiting for my friends in downtown Brooklyn, I spot a girl hauling a cab. She seemed pretty frustrated not being able to get one right away and it's hard to believe one would miss her. She has on the only jacket, a colorful oversized delight paired with blue jean shorts, socks and shoes. Her look is amazing and I couldn't help but to go and chat with her to find out who she is. Her name is Park from LA, a student studying Spanish and dance and she is visiting a friend for the summer here in NYC.

My Favorite Piece: her vintage jacket

The Month of the Crab (June 21- July 22)

We're 10 days into July and only 10 days away from my birthday. Yes I'm a Cancer! Turning 26 creeps me out big time because Its usually the age when people measure their accomplishments. There is a lot more I have to do and with God's Blessings I'm sure 'll keep making things happen. For the past two years I've grown a lot and I'm constantly challenging myself to become a better me. Trust me there is lots of bumpy roads but I keep pushing knowing there would be a great outcome. Before I get back into the groove of things I'm taking a 10 day vacation spending some of it with the boyfriend in Miami, going wild with the girlies around town (not snoop dogg wild) and jazzing it up with family events.

Happy Bday by madameq featuring Avalaya brooches

I read a lot about my zodiac sign and I was pretty impressed about what I discovered. Everything just makes perfect sense of why I do the things I do. Go out and get Astrology Gems by Monte Farber and Amy Zerner, their work is amazing!

"Cancerians are legendary for their ability to nurture people and projects, for they sense the needs of others on an emotional level", Farber and Zerner.
