A Family Affair - The Victoria Beckham Fashion Show

It was a family affair at the Victoria Beckham Fall 2014 runway show in New York yesterday! The designer mom was accompanied by her entire fashionable family, including soccer stud David Beckham and their four gorgeous children, Brooklyn, 14, Romeo, 11, Cruz, almost 9, and Harper, 2½. Looking incredibly posh and polished, the family joined Victoria backstage before taking their seats in the front row to enjoy the show. Keeping it all in the family, the Beckhams even sat next to Vogue’s editor in chief, Anna Wintour who attended the show with her daughter, Bee Shaffer.




The collection was mostly black and white, with just the tiniest hint of colour, focusing on structured designs with a splash of femininity through an emphasis of pleats and ruffles.

Before the show began, The fashion mum even took to Instagram to share a pic of a lovely note her husband and kids left her, wishing her good luck with the show! How sweet is that? I love seeing this tight knit Hollywood family who is always there to support one another, just as any family should. Its nice to see such a high profile couple still going strong after 15 years of marriage and exemplifying the importance of family with their four kids.

Between the Victoria Beckham collection, David's H&M bodywear line for both men and kids and their son Romeo's budding modelling career, we can only imagine what to expect next from this fabulous fashion family.

What do you think of the collection?

Daddy's Girl - Blue Ivy

How adorable are these pics of Jay Z and his daughter, Blue Ivy? 

After a night of partying with wifey, Beyonce, at the White House for the First Lady's 50th birthday, Mr. Carter decided to head to an Italian restaurant with his family in Brooklyn, NY. We aren't lucky enough to see baby Blue's cute face, as she was bundled up in her winter gear and wrapped in a cozy blanket. I just can't get over how cute he is with her. No matter what you think of this rapper, you can't deny he has a ton of love for his baby girl. 

Let's not forget to mention mama B, who was not too far behind, looking fashionable even in NYC's frigid temperature. I love her bag!

These pics get me a little more excited to see the rapper in concert on Friday at the Bell Centre. I hope Queen B makes a surprise appearance. Hey, a girl can dream, ha! 

The First Mom Fashion Show at NY Fashion Week

All of us fashion loving moms know that it’s fashion week season; from Paris to Milan and from Montreal to New York, now is the time to see what’s trending for Fall 2012. We are of course looking forward to see what all the top designers have in store for us, but one of the shows we are most looking forward to seeing is Strut – The Fashionable Mom Show. This new fashion show specifically for moms is the first of its kind and is coming up on closing day of New York’s  Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on  Thursday, February 16th at Lincoln Center.

 

Audrey McClelland and Vera Sweeney of Getting Gorgeous, Denise Albert and Melissa Gerstein of The Moms and Holly Pavlika, the managing director of  Big Fuel, a New York full-service marketing and communications company, and founder of Momentum have all come together to create this fabulous new fashion show for moms that will have real and celebrity moms strutting  their stuff down the runway in attainable and affordable styles while the show streams live on the Net.

“Vera and I started Getting Gorgeous two years ago because we really wanted to bring attainable fashion tips to moms,” said McClelland. “For us, this was the next logical evolution and what’s remarkable about this is we can bring fashion to every mom through the live stream, Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest.”

The buzz about Strut – The Fashionable Mom Show is building fast and we cannot wait to see this show! To show at Mercedes-Benz fashion week is every fashion mom’s dream! We wish we could somehow be a part of this show and attend in person, but fortunately they’ll be streaming live online, and we’ll be glued to our screens.

Baby Girl Falls Out Of Apartment Window!

I just read the most horrifying story on the New York Post website. 14-month-old Xania Angel Samuels tumbled out the window of her family's fifth-floor Bronx apartment and survived. By insisting on wearing her favorite pink winter coat on the hottest day of the year, her family believes the poofy jacket may have protected the baby by adding some cushion to the fall. Unbelievable! This poor baby girl was rushed to the hospital with head trauma. Her father said "It just may have broken her fall, because she is so little, just a baby". I can't see what her status is right now, but according to the site she was in critical condition and doctors were hopeful that she would make it.

 　
Click here to read the full story. I can't even imagine how I would feel if this was my own child. Child proofing your house is an absolute necessity! Especially when it comes to windows and patio doors. Babies are quick and anything can happen in a blink of eye. We wish Xania a speedy recovery. My heart aches just thinking of her and this avoidable situation.
