DIY Rainbow Stroller Blanket
If there is one thing I can say for certain about this child, it is this: between me and my mother, he will not be lacking for warm things to wrap around him.
When my parents helped me move into my college dorm room during Freshman Week, they noticed that the room didn’t come with any sort of bedside table to set books or a lamp on, and went out to buy me one as a housewarming...

Nail Inspiration
I spent last night hanging out with one of my best friends from CA, Paige, who’s in town for Coterie, and now I need to show you her nails:
Eee, love them.
Everyone who gets those gel manicures sings their praises, and even though I’m usually salon manicure-averse (I destroy them too quickly to make them worth the expense), I may need to give it a shot one of these days. Because I...

Best New Beauty Finds / Fall 2011
Clockwise from top left:
Orlane Paris Super Moisturizing Light Cream*: In deep winter I like pouring all sorts of heavy things onto my flaky face, but during the rest of the year I prefer moisturizers that don’t feel like much at all, and this one is light as air, smells beautiful, and leaves zero residue on the skin. Perfect for those who are prone to breakouts or have sensitivity...

Fave Emmy Gowns
1. Katie Holmes in Calvin Klein (love the color, the simplicity, the makeup/hair…everything)
2. Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang (yes yes, she always does “sexy,” but wow)
3. Kelly Osbourne in J. Mendel (beautiful and elegant; what I wish Nicole Kidman’s 2003 Oscars dress had looked like)
Runner-up: Gwyneth in Pucci. She’s been getting kind of panned for this dress,...

The Lightening
So this happened this weekend. On Friday, actually: I was on my way home from a meeting when I felt it. (You can sorrrta see that my stomach has moved down in the photo above, taken during a little rooftop mini-picnic this weekend. Also, digression: this weather! SWEATERS! Yesss.)
“Lightening,” for those of you who don’t know (most of you, I’d imagine, since I’d...

A Little Early Christmas Shopping
Three bucks at TJ Maxx; couldn’t resist.
Christmas shopping for someone who will be two months old during the holidays is a funny thing. Do I…hide stuff? …Wrap it? I think the answers are “not really” and “why not?”

The Punchbowl: The Real Courtney Love →
jaw = dropped.

Working in the entertainment industry allows you to cross paths with celebrities for better or for worse. I have a zillion stories from over the years. Here’s one that I just heard today and I wanted to share. All names have been changed* to protect identities, except for Courtney Love’s name.

Shoe Ideas For Colored Jeans
Q. Jordan,
I own these colored jeans [both from the Gap’s 1969 line]:
What shoes do I wear with them? I feel like little black flats are too cutesy for such a trendy item. What do you think?
Thanks!
Shawn
A. The best thing about colored jeans is that they do the work of making an outfit awesome for you - you can get away with the simplest-ever top and shoes, and still look cute...
