Coming up for Air
Gasp. It's been 5 weeks since baby #2 arrived. The little bundle has indeed brought a lot of joy but given the noxious fumes emanating from my over-taxed Diaper Genie, the 2 am feeds that show no signs of dissipating or the drone of the breast pump that almost (but not quite) drowns out my newborn's wails and my toddler's tantrums, I'm feeling a little less than glam these days. You'd think that looking at these gorgeous new shots of Christy Turlington, Natalia Vodianova and Karen Elson for Louis Vuitton would make me feel even worse. Somehow, though, they bring me hope that one day, I will cast off my pyjamas and slip into something impossibly chic again. This new campaign for Louis Vuitton shot by the genius Steven Meisel perfectly captures the mood for this coming Fall: polished, glamorous and absolutely bursting with femininity. The LV Fall/Winter 2010-2011 ad campaign will hit magazines this August.
I'd love to hear from you so keep sending in your story ideas and style dilemmas. If I'm resigned to wearing nursing shirts for the next little while, I might as well dress vicariously through you.
Missed you and so happy to be back!

Sarah,
Thanks for posting, I've missed you! Looking at these photos makes me want to change out of my yoga pants and (even though my hair is already, and on most days, in a pony tail) fancy it up a bit. These photos are gorgeous. And even though most days my attire calls for understated (again, yoga pants and a tank) this inspires me to dig out that fab dress in the back, back of my closet and get dressed up. Even if it is only for this months planned event, our anniversary. Got a babysitter, may as well get dolled up! Won't my husband, (and my inner self) be happy.
If you think thats hard try putting up with a newborn, a toddler and a blogging wife.
=) Glad you post again.
