Eye-Catching Esquire Cover

When I was at MoMA yesterday, I got to see the George Lois Esquire covers exhibit. It wasn't a huge exhibit. Just a glass table with some contact sheets and not quite two walls with covers on them. It was more of a third of one wall and a quarter of the other, but I loved it. One cover in particular caught my eye, and it was not the Andy Warhol one, even thought that was one of my favorites.

The headline read, The New American Woman: through at 21.



I wondered what the article that accompanied that cover was about. Does this mean that I only have one good year left? If so, I'd better get moving! If this is my last post, you know who to blame.

MoMA ... Oh Momma!

Yesterday, I went to MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) on a school trip. It was, well, okay.

Here's why it sucked ::

- my friend and I were wearing heels which apparently kill your feet as you wonder around the many exhibits, minus 5
- the moderator for the trip didn't tell us he was a member of the Museum so we wasted about a half hour on a line that wrapped around 3/4 of the block, minus 20
- we wasted about another hour sitting, minus 25
- we couldn't take flash pictures, minus 10
- the only Andy Warhol things I saw were Andy on an Esquire cover, Andy's painting in the lobby, and the Andy Marilyn artwork on the postcard I got in the gift shop, minus 10

Total :: minus 70 points

Here's why it rocked ::

- I was with Mal, plus 10
- I was in NYC, plus 5
- I found where they film Gossip Girl, plus 10
- I got to see the Esquire covers exhibit, plus 10
- Mal & I found the apartment building we will live in when we're rich and chic, plus 15
- Mal & I spotted many a fashionista & fashionisto as we sat and ate snacks (cashews & combos), plus 10
- Mal & I made new friends, plus 10
- I got a postcard of one of Andy Warhol's Marilyn pieces, plus 10
- I got Junior's Red Velvet layer cake, plus 10

Total :: plus 90

So I guess the trip wasn't a total waste of time. Plus now I know how to get there. All is not lost in love and MoMA. Mal and I need to go back to the Museum another time, in flats, when we have free time.

Check out my pictures :: excuse the blurriness, we couldn't take pictures with flash




listen up designers :: put this on a dress, and Mal & I will wear it



my favorite part of a Matisse painting



we thought this was a piece of art until we saw a guy walking on them, lol



I'm not exactly sure why there was an Airstream trailer in the museum, but if you look closely, you can see the stove in the back



faux leaves ???



not a sculpture, but it was in the sculpture garden



view from MoMA :: Mal & I plan to live here



view from MoMA :: we may hang out here



view from MoMA :: our street in 10 years



not MoMA ... St Patrick's Cathedral at night



not MoMA ... the Juicy Couture window ... this should have been in MoMA



Xiaomin asked the ticket guy on the train for her ticket back so she could keep it as a souvenir and he handed her a whole stack of the tickets he had clipped, lol
