Art and Apologies!!! (Part One)

Hey Everyone!!!

First of all its been 4 months since my last post; and for that I'm so sorry! A lot of things have been changing recently and I wanted to take some time to see what direction I wanted my blog to take and to be honest, I'm still not to sure but I'm back and we'll see how it goes! I work full-time so I wont be able to post all the time but I'll try at least twice a week, one post on fashion, and the other on whatever else tickles my fancy!! Also thank you to everyone who's viewed it. Means a lot! xx

Now the Apologies are taken care of... onto the art! The 11-14 July was London's Annual Mexfest. I love Mexican culture and one of my favourite women; Artist Frida Kahlo, was indeed a Mexican! So knowing that I took a trip down the The Royal Academy of Art (RA) to have a look at the Mexico:A Revolution in Art, 1910-1940 exhibition. It was everything I expected: bold, bright, colourful, intriguing and passionate. Here are a few of the pictures I took.











Frida Kahlo-Self Portrait



I would post an OOTD picture or two but to be honest, in hindsight; I absolutely hated it, which I guess is convenient as this post is about art... not fashion (good cop-out Sally!) At the end of my trip I got some goodies.

Books and Postcards :-)

The exhibition was pretty good overall. I was really bummed that they didn't any Frida Kahlo artwork apart from what I posted above but its nothing I can't live with. Today I'm of for a spa weekend so I'll come back revived and ready to write. In terms of hauls I went a bit ham and bought a bit more than I probably should have this month, with items still on they're way so I'll do a two-part, three-part, however-any-parts-it-takes post to show you all the awesomeness I bought. And again, thanks so much for reading.

Feel free to drop your blog links and comments below. It'll make my day.
