My EXACT feelings when I think of Tuesdays. I mean, they’re still closer to the past weekend than the upcoming one. Go ahead and be a Monday, why don’t you.

sunflowers

Which one would you rather have? The yellow one? Or the one underneath it?

If you picked the yellow one, congratulations! It’s van Gogh’s Sunflowers. If you chose the one underneath it, take your Gauguin and get out of my life.

I feel like I should have every one of these. Like, actually though, I’ve already purchased this. See you 5 – 7 business days, classy addition to my wardrobe!

tuileries

I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to realize that a full bonnet with a polka dot veil is the way to go for Jazz at the Garden. Too long, obviously, as Jazz in the Garden ended this past weekend and I wasn’t even in town.

Renoir’s “Music in the Tuileries Gardens” was painted in 1862.

“I had a lot of dates, but I decided to stay home and dye my eyebrows.”

Manet once said, “I would kiss you, had I the courage.” I’m guessing he tried that line out on the ladies that are leisurely sunning judging themselves on the terrace. Goodness, Manet, did that line ever work?!

Yes. Everything about this. Just….yes. 

What I like most about this is work is the reflection in the large carafe in the lower left corner. Read about it here.

I don’t know about you, but I always see Caravaggio at work in the surface of my wine.

labor day

Is it just me, or is Labor Day all about staying in bed? I mean, I’ve seen about a hundred mattress ads this weekend. Give it a rest, Sleepy’s! If I’m watching Lifetime’s “Grey’s” marathon, I’m obviously already in bed. Your product placement is ALL OFF.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Two Girls in Bed, oil on cardboard, Paris, Musee d’Orsay, 1893.
