Lustrous hair billowing around the bundled up neck of an American girl living in Paris… Need I say more? Her Dooney & Burke bag and Jeffrey Campbell loafers are all the accoutrements Katie really needs to stay stylishly (and functionally) bedecked for a long day at the Château de Versailles. More photos of Katie here
I was skeptical about yellow on yellow but then realized lemon and mustard are totally different colors. Sophia is an art teacher in San Francisco and here she is in front of Nick Mauss’ “Concern, Crush, Desire” (2011) at Whitney Museum’s 2012 Biennial. More Sophie here.

Being all fluorescent and fuzzy either makes you one of the exhibiting artists or you’re basically telling the exhibiting artists “I’m not an artist but watch out, cuz I’m here.” This is Sarah in the Whitney Museum staircase wearing one of her own designs. More photos HERE. (more…)
Last Tuesday, we attended the opening of The New Museum’s Triennial: “The Ungovernables”. It was our first time at an opening as “Babes At The Museum” so of course we lost all control and snapped away like crazy. As expected, there was a sea of babes in snazzy garbs and spiffy style shuffling through floors. More photos HERE.

BEFORE: “Sure. Go ahead”
AFTER: “Are you done yet?”
If you don’t get the shot within a few seconds, be ready for the kind of charming spunk that reminds you of your first crush on a girl who could positively squash you with her feistiness. Kathleen was spotted at MoMA PS1. When she’s not designing her own clothing line, she’s writing about what a closet full of internet fashion would look like. Photos by Xavier Aaronson
Staff is always more understanding than the glaring prohibitions signs they pose next to. This is Hannah. She works at the Dia:Beacon and she was one of those few babes who actually work at the museum. Photo by Xavier Aaronson
We had more of an eerie, Fever Ray-type scarecrow idea in mind for the photo but Jessica’s own flowing interpretation was a more fitting contrast in color and contortion with Andy Warhol’s Orange Car Crash Fouteen Times . Photo by Xavier Aaronson

We caught Marquan hanging out at the Brooklyn Museum with a lady friend. Their bits of tomfoolery reminded us of the scene in Godard’ s “Band of Outsiders” when they run through the Louvre. Marquan is standing in front of an installation by Mounir Fatmi called Maximum Sensation, which is a collection of 50 skateboards carpeted with prayer rugs for grip tape. Photo by Xavier Aaronson
Just a little accessorizing to the head and Lindsay busts through her unassuming MoMA PS1 trappings and staff t-shirt to pull off a diabolical Geek Punk Gallery look, with aplomb. In addition to being awesome while working, Lindsay also studies Comparative Literature at NYU and put us onto a surrealist book entitled “Solar Anus” by Georges Bataille. Look it up.
