First, you probably have to rewire the lamp. Unless the seller already did it for you, it's best to rewire any vintage finds so you know they've been safely updated. The process isn't that hard, but you will need to buy the supplies and spend the time to do it correctly.

"The name is a paradox. They never functioned as a collective," says Kaat Debo, MoMu's director. "Some of them still describe that label as a blessing and a curse. But they were friends."

We might be exposed to more ads and commercials today than ever before in human history, but the idea of advertising itself is certainly not a new concept.

Figuring out what deserves counter space versus cabinet real estate in your kitchen can feel like a constant puzzle, especially when you are dealing with limited space and wanting aesthetic storage solutions.

Nobody will know you didn't splurge. We may receive a portion of sales if you purchase a product through a link in this article. If putting together uptown-girl looks on a budget feels like an art form, consider this list your cheat sheet. Scroll on to shop everything from everyday basics and loungewear, to 'fits worthy of dressy occasions.

Travelling for art can be incredibly virtuous and culturally rewarding, like collecting souvenirs for your eyes (and from the post card rail in the gift shop). Remembering to research what is on before I book flights is a lesson I learnt all too well after I missed the Metropolitan Museum's fashion exhibition in 2016 by one day.
