Hello Lovelies,

I am proud to announce that I have finally bought my Art Gallery of Ontario membership and payed a visit on Sunday morning to check out Boucher’s Les Sabots for my critique. The gallery was recently re-done by the famous Frank Gehry and I must admit it is quite impressive. In some ways it resembles Frank Lloyd Wright’s Guggenheim Museum… it must be that spiral staircase( lol) in others it has that Guggenheim, Bilbao futuristic feeling.

I can’t wait to take the architectural tour…. so exciting !!! and every other tour that they offer and buy up all of their catalogs.

Conservative with a twist

As for my outfit it was comfortable and conservative, but I did try something different with my hair…

I really loved what they did with the hair at Carolina Herrera (spring 09) and decided to try it myself but by adding a girly twist - a ponytail, instead of tucking away my hair. It is comfortable and neat, and would definately work perfectly in the summer when it is humid.

I am wearing: Soia & Kyo jacket; Ralph Lauren Top; French Connection Trousers; Michael Kors Oxfords; Accessories &Beyond Bracelets in Gold.
Seriously, if you need a quick get away to spend some time alone and just contemplate about all things beautiful or whatever just pay your local gallery a visit… you’ll be surprised as to how awesome you will feel after. For me, this trip definitely reinforced my passion for art and architecture in ways that I never expected…I just hope that my future allows me to continue to discover and work in such wonderful environment.

As for now, I am off to work on my critique…

I wish you all a wonderful day !!!!

With Love…
Marta

    YAY! I’m so happy you posted about the AGO, I loved every second of it when I went there! The stairs were amazing, but what I loved were the windows, so breathtaking. I was super excited to see the group of seven paintings and they were amazing in person. Anyone that lives in TO and hasn’t gone should really make a trip asap!
