When spring has arrived, but there is snow in the forecast - what better way to spend to spend an afternoon than staying indoors and gazing up at the stars? The Baltimore Museum of Art currently has two exhibits on display that are for the dreamers…
“Moon Dust” is a perfect example of the harmony of when science meets art. The artist, Spencer Finch, created an impressive light installation representing the chemical composition of moon dust gathered from the Apollo 17 mission. The diameter of each globe corresponds to the size of an atom - small globes represent helium, while the larger oxygen. This exhibit is breathtaking and it also makes my nerdy little heart beat with excitement!
The second exhibit, "Entangled Orbits" by Tomas Saraceno features installations inspired by clouds, bubbles, and spider webs that are suspended across entire rooms. I love how the artist captures the iridescent shimmer of bubbles. Secretly, many of us dream about playing with bubbles the size of cars. It is incredibly beautiful and inspiring.
I'm a huge fan of the monochromatic palette when putting together an outfit, favoring creams and neutrals regardless of the time of year. I often look for versatile pieces that transition well between the seasons and this midi dress fits those criteria really well. Made from lightweight cotton, the fabric makes it an ideal summer dress, but it's easily paired with a jacket or trench for spring or fall. The dress is also perfect for dressing up or down; add some sandals and a straw tote and you have the great look for a beach vacation. I definitely plan on wearing it from spring to fall this year!
