MM Spring Exhibition 2014

Mum.spring.2014.poster.2pp

The spring 2014 exhibition is quite flower heavy.  I know what you're thinking. 

Florals for spring

Re-using one of my favorite gifs

However, given how bad this winter was, I am even more deliriously happy than in years past to see flowers again.  They are truly the ultimate expression of rebirth and rejuvenation.  That, combined with how inspired I was by the Philadelphia Flower Show, led to a strong emphasis on flowers for this exhibition.  Finally, you'll notice that some of the pieces are a little…off-kilter.  It's sort of a crazy garden theme rather than standard floral prints.  From a curious flower hat to to Mika Ninagawa's "singing forest" to human heads blossoming, there's a bit of a peculiar, playful feel to the exhibition – neatly tied together, I feel, by the inclusion of Urban Decay's Alice in Wonderland Book of Shadows.

Avon Flower Show Case Lipstick ad and cases…okay, so the cases are plastic and not at all that rare, but I couldn't resist their delightful vintage kitschy-ness.

Stila Look of the Month palette (April) and Garden of Glamour palette.  Can anyone identify the flowers on the latter?  At first I thought they were pansies but now I'm thinking they might be orchids.

Chanel Fleurs Célestes palette…just realized I left out an "s" in the exhibition label.  Sigh.

That concludes the exhibition.  I hope it incited some serious spring fever.  Now off you go.  Get off the internet and go outside to enjoy a warm sunny day!
