i heart kate moss

my baby posting moratorium lasted all of five days but if anyone was going to break me, it was going to be the spawn of kate moss.

the clincher

okay.  this ends now.  a moratorium on all baby-related posts.  that said, i leave you with these final two images.

my ovaries are officially hurting.

long live mcqueen

this year, the metropolitan museum of art's costume institute celebrates the work of alexander mcqueen.   entitled savage beauty, the retrospective will feature more than 100 pieces of work from his postgraduate collection in 1992 to his last runway presentation, which took place after his death in February 2010.

fortunately, his legacy will continue to live on with sarah burton, creative director of the brand and mcqueen's right hand woman for the last 14 years.

yay or nay: r13 sweat jeans

it sounds too good to be true.  the all-around comfort of sweat pants and the all-purpose jean all in one.

thanks to the help of r13, i may have perfected schleppy chic and found my weekend uniform of choice.  a skinny jean with just the right amount of slouch + drop in the crotch (yes, that is a plus in my book).  and the elastic waistband is always a welcome addition to sunday brunch.

given that i carry my food baby around with me wherever i go, i may never take these off.

 

babies + fashion

it's a conspiracy.  clearly this is a trend that seems doesn't seem to be going away any time soon.

for one, i can't pick up an international edition of vogue (french, russian, japanese, what-have-you) these days without finding a supplement devoted entirely to children.

geraldine saglio-styled editorials and stella mccartney kids lines aside, it's starting to feel like a hard-sell.  this whole baby thing.  crewcuts hasn't helped matters either.

and let's not discuss alexander wang's itty bitty niece.

i can't even go there.

bestill my heart

the first time i saw this crewcuts picture, my heart melted. can't decide if it's the maternal instinct kicking in or the desire to grow my hair down to the middle of my back.

both require a nine-month commitment.  ask me again tomorrow.
