Stella McCartney for LeSportsac has arrived

Some of the new Stella McCartney for LeSportsac bags are nice. You all know I love the prints. This is my favourite bag and print. It’s a big bag too.

There is a pair i want online, (see link) but I’ve never tried on that brand so i don’t know how the size fits, if not would you know how they fit?

Halston Ready to Wear – Fall Winter 2008 – 2009 One of the most anticipated shows of the season is Halston and man was it awful. This periwinkle thing is the most hideous garment I’ve seen in a long time. Seriously! These two are the worst of the bunch, but it doesn’t get much better. You are suppose to reinvent Halston not make some existing patterns. images: thefashionspot.com

And they had their two babies with them. Scary’s baby is very cute, Emma’s not so much.
