KREWE collaborates with Mazzuchelli to make these Stella shades.
A fresco is made by mixing water-based pigments with plaster, the color is set when the plaster dries. The Sistine Chapel represents the height of Renaissance art. Michelangelo made the world’s most famous fresco by standing up right with his hand titled, not lying on back as many assumed.
Whether or not you’ve been to the Vatican, this art installation is awe inspiring. Now, for the first time you can see clearly see the human form in the eyes of Michelangelo and his references to the biblical tales.
After doing some more research on Michangelo, I learned that his one of the most prolific and greatest artist of all time because he was so versatile. He received praise relatively early in his career and after sculpting the statue David and Pietà, he then commissioned works for the wealthiest and powerful individuals of his day.
Up Close is on display from June 23rd – July 23rd, go check it out.
Compare the art installments with that of the actual museum here.

“Rei Kawakubo for Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between—Gallery Views”
Clothing is art? Not sure, go see this exhibit and then decide. The fabrics, tailoring, wigs and colors fuel this question. If that isn’t enough all of the pieces literally prompt you to decide with titles such as:
Absence/Presence
Design/Not Design
Fashion/Anti-Fashion
Object/Subject
Clothes/Not Clothes
The exhibit is cozy in size and can be viewed in under 45 mins. I love that the exhibit allows viewers to take any route through a maze of pure white massively curved walls, where the clothing peeks through at every turn.
The Rei Kawakubo exhibit was made possible by CONDE NAST and will be on view at The MET until September 4th, 2017.

The one thing I love about being in the city, is that quality coffee isn’t too far away. In New Jersey, you will be hard pressed to find a place that is unique and aesthetically pleasing among the Starbucks and Dunkin’ Dounts……………until Koffeewagon.
Located on Route 17, this coffee spot is a stand out! I highly recommend coming by for a GOOD cup of coffee. They offer it all, cold brew, tea, espresso, light, medium and dark roast. On the weekends, if you are feeling like a treat try their crepes; light airy and delicious.
The quality is why I go and it doesn’t help that the shop is completely Instagram worthy, with fine art and free Wifi. Grab a coffee to go or stay and work, either way you won’t be disappointed.
For more information on Koffeewagon Roasters, check out their website! If you go, leave a comment about your order!
