From Lee’s Point of View
Art x Outfit Edit #33 A few months ago, walking through the Asian aisle of the Met, I stumbled upon one of Lee Ufan’s work.

Morisot’s Party Tip
Art x Fashion Edit #28 For a very long time, and probably like most of you were (or still are), I was oblivious to the amazing talent of Berthe Morisot.

Kapoor’s Party
Art x Outfit Edit #26 It is mid-October, no occasion for another two weeks at least. Well, whatever, you and I do not need an occasion to look grand. Grand, that is what I think every time I see one of Kapoor’s work. Anish Kapoor is famous for his large scale public art pieces, likeContinue reading “Kapoor’s Party”
