musical sculpture













(boots: payless, everything else is either vintage or thrifted) 


   I have a strange, undying, child-like love for the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art. I go at least monthly  and I have specific spots in the museum I must visit each time I attend. The sculpture park is my absolute favorite, and I can't help but photograph it every time I decide to explore the museum. My boyfriend and I (of which you don't see being photographed very often by me, he has to be In the "mood" as he explains) spent some of our Sunday afternoon wandering through the modern art section... although I prefer fine art, but I compromised with quickly browsing through it. 

   There is a rooftop park downtown on top of a grocery store I had no idea existed until now. I was rather excited to view the buildings from above in the little park, because I often forget about Kansas City's downtown area. I also tasted chocolates from Christoper Elbow, in flavors I had never tried before. The tiny chocolates were flavors like Rosemary Caramel, Aged Whiskey Maple, and Banana Foster... I could eat those chocolates forever. Next trip there, the drinking chocolate is top on my list.

  6. My goodness everything in those photos are beautiful! I've been dying wanting to go to an art museum. Unfortunately I haven't attended one since high school. I just haven't had the time, but I think I'm going to attempt to go to one this winter!

  10. Oh, I love that. Museums are on my top five list of things I love. I saw the House of Faberge exhibit when it came to the Detroit Institute of Art, and that was amazing--though I love the DIA in general. Lovely photos!

  12. I <3 the Nelson! My hubby and I used to go a lot when we were dating and lived closer (Manhattan). We FINALLY went back in July for the first time in, oh, 8 years. It's changed so much!
