Christine at Mike’s Tavern

By NADIA PFLAUM

So I was all, “Is that a Keith Haring dress?” And Christine was all, “Yeah, I think it is. I got it at a thrift store, but it’s obviously that.” Christine’s a painting major at the Kansas City Art Institute, which explains (1) her getting the Haring reference and (2) her effing awesome style.

“People at the Art Institute have a lot of style,” Christine said. “They’re kind of on the cusp of it.”

Christine is interning for designer Peggy Noland at the moment, and says that Peggy’s doing a baby theme right now. “She’s got diapers, and collars with big pillows on ’em, and stuff that says, ‘I (heart) Mom.’ I’m so into it.”

It would be pretty hard not to heart that.
