BATHTUB KIN

I loved every image from this editorial . . . but for some reason i wanted to post this one all on its own. The lighting and contrast in size between Sasha and the little girl. just magical. Photographer Mikael Jansson did an amazing job in this Vogue Paris spread. See all the images HERE.

TRICK-OR-TREAT

Last minute Halloween candy shopping today for the neighborhood Trick-or-Treat crowd.

Sadly i have to work tonight so I won't be answering the door . . . but i wanted to make sure Eric was prepared. Otherwise he'd probably end up handing out pennies and pencil stubs to the kids.

MY WILD LIFE

I absolutely love the styling here. pattern mixing, rich textures, opulent layering. and you can't forget the back-combed/teased-out hair.

A.M.

Pitch and I stopped off for some woods time before heading to my gym . . . my new morning ritual. I joined a new gym two weeks ago and so far i'm totally obsessed. It's new, clean, empty in the a.m. and has free coffee! It also has an infrared sauna which i haven't quite mastered yet.

High-Kick!

NEVERHYPER

I just got the most random email.

So i guess my sister's friend was googling "Margot Tenenbaum" at her computer somewhere in CA and stumbled upon a photo of me and my roommate (Sage) from my freshman year in college (my roommate had captioned the photo saying i looked like Margot).

My sister's friend recognized me and forwarded the old photo-sharing link to my sister who then passed it along to me. I haven't seen these photos in years! (they were from 2002/2003). Apparently Sage and I loved taking photos of ourselves. . . because we are the only subjects of the entire album!

(freshly de-braced face . . . i had them right up until one week before the first day of my freshman year.)

(me supposedly looking like Margot Tenenbaum . . . this photo also reminded me that i used to put vaseline around my eyes cause i thought it looked good. hmmmm)

(My hair was insanely long my freshman year. . . and yes, this is how we dressed. Sage in sweats and a bandana, and me in some attempt to look like a laid-back hippie.)
