Info Post
The Getty

(1940's rayon dress: Bobby From Boston. Suede shoes: Re-Mix Vintage.)

On our last day in LA we went to The Getty. I'd heard lots of talk about this place before we even thought about going to California, so I was so excited to spend an afternoon roaming around!

Beth had told me an adorable story about wind gusts and dresses, but I thought I'd be safe with this one... boy, oh boy was I wrong!! All afternoon I was clutching my dress for dear life!!

fair warning!


Besides the near indecency - the museum was wonderful! I think I could have spent my entire afternoon staring out at the view and wandering around the gardens and exhibits. They leave parasols out for visitors to use while walking about, which I thought was really thoughtful!

My favorite exhibit was Women of Art and Science. I wanted to set up a little art heist before leaving for Massachusetts and steal all of her work so I could put it on my bedroom walls! .. Instead I just bought some postcards.... (I wish these were the postcards, but I just found these images on the Getty's website)













The August Sander: People of the Twentieth Century exhibit was incredible too... We took home a book, but those images are for another post!

PS I've been waiting and waiting to do the Traveling Shirt post until I have photoshop on my computer, hopefully just a few more days!!
