A Trip to the ICA

My friend Kelly was kind enough to invite me along on her visit to the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston. The last time I visited the ICA I left feeling a little underwhelmed, but this trip did not disappoint! I loved the new exhibit This Will Have Been: Art, Love and Politics in the 1980s.  

The ICA is just a few blocks from the site of the Boston Tea party and has amazing views of the harbor. I couldn't help but take some pictures in some of the glass lobby areas overlooking the harbor. 


Outfit: Dress- Gap; Cardigan- Old Navy; Tights- H&M; Boots- Me Too via DSW; Belt- Urban Outfitters. 
The lighting in these photos was a little tricky. I had to clean them up a lot in photoshop, and I still couldn't get them right. This dress is actually a charcoal gray flannel, but it looks a little blue in the photos. My photos of the harbor turned out much better. Seriously, how beautiful is this view?


I want to thank y'all for sticking with me despite my sporadic posting. I probably won't post again until after Thanksgiving, but I'm going to try my darnedest to take lots of pictures (and dress really fabulously) over the long weekend! I hope everyone enjoys a day full of friends, family, and delicious food!

    I always enjoy a good art museum! Sometimes I have issues with photo editing too. I love your mustard tights and the harbor looks gorgeous! Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Tashia!

    I liked that dressing thinking it was blue, I LOVE it knowing it's gray flannel! Gray's my favorite color! Have a great Thanksgiving!

    You look lovely my dear! I absolutely love your dress, but my favorite has to be those colored tights! Gorgeous!
    I've always wanted to visit Boston. It just seems like such a lovely city. My boyfriend did a 5 week summer music
    program at Berklee and fell absolutely in love with. I still have yet to visit - but hopefully someday!

    It doesn't matter if you only post every now and then, I'll always check back, you are one of my very favorite bloggers and I always love seeing what you're up to. (Like this exhibit, it sounds so interesting, Art, love and politics in the 80s, I'm always jealous of all of the amazing things that Boston has going on.) And oh my, that belt is crazy cute, how fun to see you rocking the colored tights!
