Jenny Is Back On The Block!

Jenny is back on the block! 

Sexy mom J-Lo debuted the video for her latest hit "Same Girl" and while I like the video, I'm not so convinced that she really is that same girl. In the video Jenny poses with her 'friends', strolls down the streets of the Bronx and even hops on the train just like the good old days. Only difference is the designer clothes and jewelry that, without a doubt, cost more than my yearly salary. Don't get me wrong, she worked hard to get to where she is and should be proud, but then why boast about being that same Jenny from the block? Why not accept that you've grown and become a different person? I mean, none of us are the same girl we were 10 years ago, hell I'm not the same girl I was 2 years. Motherhood, careers, living life: it changes you and for the better I might add! 

"This was probably the craziest thing I've done in my career of music and movies," Lopez said. “I called my girlfriends and some photographer friends. We just grabbed a camera, jumped on the train, left the city and ran around the Bronx. We found some interesting places that captured the essence of what it was like to live there and made me remember the simplicity of life I used to have there. The rest was real life." That does sound super fun though. Who doesn't like reminiscing with old girlfriends, right? Regardless of the fact that she might be having a mid-life crisis, we can't deny that she looks amazing! I'm talking super fantastic, gorgeous, flawless type of amazing. I am in love every single look from the video, hot hot hot! 

Check out the video below and tell me, do you think she's just the "Same Girl"?

Rachel Zoe - Family over Fashion

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week kicked off this morning in New York, and while in reality we’ve just begun shopping for spring, designers are already showing us what to expect for Fall 2014.

We’re excited to see new collections from designers like Diane Von Furstenberg, Zac Posen, Carolina Herrera, Badgley Mischka, Herve Leger and plenty more, but one person we won’t be seeing this season? Our fave celebrity stylist, Rachel Zoe.

For the first time since her designer debut in 2011, Rachel Zoe will not be showing her name sake collection during New York Fashion Week. As crazy for fashion as we all know she is, there is one thing that will always top her priority list and that is her kids. With the recent birth of her second son, Kaius Jagger Berman just a few months ago in December, Rachel has decided that in the best interest of her family, she would not show her collection in New York this time around.

(Could she have looked any more fabulous after having just given birth!?)

“While I look forward to New York Fashion Week each season, I’ve made the difficult decision to move our fall 2014 runway show from Feb. 13 in New York to a later date in Los Angeles. As a new mother, my newborn son is too young to travel with me and I’m unable to leave him for the amount of time required to appropriately prepare for the show in New York.”

While her signature ’60s-inspired bohemian chic looks will be missed on the runway, I have to say, I really respect Rachel for making this decision. It must have been a difficult one to make, but she surely knows where her priorities are, and that is with her family. This is definitely a dilemma we all face as working mothers, when trying to balance work and family life. I think both her family and her business will benefit from this decision as her young sons will have mommy at home when they need her most, and at the same time she will be able to adequately prepare a fabulous show later on in Los Angeles, instead of (pardon the expression) half-assing either situation. Sometimes difficult decisions have to be made in order to accommodate everyone`s best interest.

What are some of the dilemmas you face as a working mom? Have you ever had to make a tough decision between work and family like Rachel did? Let us know in the comments.

PS. Loving the rock star theme of Rachel`s boys middle names - Morrison and Jagger (aka Jim Morrison and Mick Jagger). I`m also a little bias towards the name Jagger since my son shares the same name. :)

Jessica Simpson: Star of Her Own 2014 Collection

Superstar and supermom Jessica Simpson is the star of her own 2014 ‘Jessica Simpson Collection’ ad campaign, and all I can say is wow! The hot, hot mama is absolutely gorgeous showing off her new Weight Watchers body in a sexy white bathing suit.  Jessica is wearing the strapless one-piece from her upcoming collection and she told People magazine “This swimsuit is feminine and a little retro in its detailing. It’s very sexy, but it still leaves something to the imagination. And the shape is incredibly flattering.” I couldn't agree more, not only is it flattering, it’s definitely something I could see myself rocking this summer or perhaps on my destination wedding this coming fall!  (Speaking of that, maybe I should be looking into my own WW plan, ha!)

Not only does she look truly happy, her body is flawless! Apart from the bathing suit shots, you can see her looking very stylish in super cute dresses that we can all rock this summer. I really love that stays true to herself as a woman and as a mother. I also recently started following her on Instagram and you can just see how real she is and how much she loves her kiddos, just like us “real” moms, her feed is pretty much all about her kids and I couldn't love her more for it. 

What do you ladies think of her new line? Could you see yourself if any of these looks? 

Kate Hudson & Kids for Ann Taylor Spring 2014

Kate Hudson has had a long standing relationship as the face of Ann Taylor, and for the Spring 2014 campaign, the actress imitates life on set as a working mom, modeling her favourite pieces of the collection along side her two adorable sons, Ryder, 10 and Bing, 2.

For a clothing line targeted at effortlessly chic career women, this Ann Taylor campaign couldn’t be more on point for many women balancing work and family life.

“It really captures my life as a working mom and how we all balance those parts of our lives,” Hudson said.

We are loving the concept of this Spring campaign, and Kate is looking as stunning as ever! (and more and more like her mom, Goldie Hawn, ever day!)

What do you think of this new campaign and the message it portrays?
