Heritage Museum of Orange county

This Memorial Day I went to Heritage Museum to learn how the life was like in 1890s.

Heritage Museum in Orange County is located in city of Santa Ana.  We had a wonderful tour of Kellogg Family’s house and learn how people lived in 1890; how they cook and eat, take a bath, wash their clothes, what kind of clothes wear, school life, and how they play and entertain each other.
I enjoyed the most in the Dressing room to see all the historical garments and see how they wear them !

Mother Nature

My art class kids went on a contest supported by American Bank ( Some kinda Chinese bank).  The title of contest was mother nature. We didn't have much time to prepare and I was so impressed with students ideas and how much they could accomplished in a such a short time !

I went there to check out all the interior design/ and furniture show..
My roommate is thinking of re - do the kitchen and bathroom, so it was the great opportunity to check out the hottest interior designer's works.  The show was huge and i was there about 2 hours and couldn't even look all the works..


and i told them that i was a students who is studying in design and they gave me much of catalogs to take.

i was so impressed especially James Perse's furniture works. He is known as a fashion designer but apparently he does interior designs too. ~


it was such a thrill to see all the amazing furnitures and textiles that they use.. I got a lot of inspirations for my fashion studies ~


I'm definitely going back again to check out again ! 





   

Exhibition of Rodarte's costumes from the Movie "Black Swan"

During Spring break I went to Rodarte's exhibition in MOCA.
They displayed the costumes from the movie Black Swan.
the exhibition was just too small and there were just 10 garments...
It was little disappointed.. seems like students work and just bunch of fabrics and trims are sewn up together..

well and they didn't let me take any of photos.. (well there weren't much to take photos anyway..)
here is some pictures from online and this is actually all to look at.. its free but if you live far away.. don't waste your gas to visit...
