Strange Coincidence

A rather strange and random encounter on Net-a-Porter today.
Presenting the Ines box clutch from Chloe, no joke.
'In a brilliantly designed color blocking style this is the epitome of an instant classic design from ChloƩ. The perfect clutch for when you have just a little more than the very necessary.'
It too can be yours for an incredible bargain- $966- on sale!

MOMA & P.S. I love you





We were on a roll and visited MOMA and P.S. 1 in Long Island City within 2 days of each other. Consider them parts 1 and 2 of the Olafur Eliasson exhibits, which Chloe consumed with gusto along with the Eastmans. Ines on the other hand, much preferred the P.F. 1 architect's installation- a pool/playground at P.S.1. She tested the waters and inevitably ended up completely soaked and subsequently naked. Fortunately it was a sunny day and we hung out to dry off along with croque monsieurs and chestnut sorbets- yup, they were from the cafeteria menu!

Museum Mileage




So it was decided that this summer's exploration theme (last year being 'sight-seeing in NYC') would be 'The Museums of New York'. Considering it is a city of an abundance of the theme subject, I must say we probably would not run out of ideas. First stop- the Met with out of town buddies and former New Yorkers Wyatt and Ella Eastman. Now Wyatt and Ella were native born and have transplated to Arizona for a couple of years already. Yet they are rather worldly. Wyatt knows about 50 countries and their capitols, AND their flags. He was fascinated by the fact that I grew up in Hong Kong and that Eric, though Filipino, is not actually FROM the Philippines.
