You can now buy those Little Miss & Mr T-shirts that are adorable at the gap for your little ones! I was at a mall the other day and happened to peek through the window of Baby Gap and saw the shirts. I was debating buying a few even though I am minus child, but for future use.
I have a Little Miss Lucky T-Shirt in light blue that I bought a few years ago at Urban Outfitters. I have a bit of a history with Little Miss books. Every time I leave London to come back home Neal always buys me a Little Miss book at the airport (even though it entertains me for about 3 minutes) I am starting to have a little collection.

Before I left London I picked up two books hoping that I would start one on the plane back, but I ended up just watching movies, eating, and sleeping….Virgin Atlantic is wonderful.
Victoria Line, Central Line by Maeve Binchy
Have you ever been on the London underground and wondered what some of these people do with their lives, where are they going, who are they seeing? Well, this book is a fictional view of that. Each chapter is a different tube station following someone… sort of getting into their mind. Very interesting!
Snobs by Julian Fellowes
I honestly can say I don’t know what it is about, but judging by the cover it seemed intriguing and a definite beach read. One review said: “Reading Snobs is a guilty pleasure” And that review alone is good enough for me!

One of my favorite books is called Bright Young Things. It introduces readers to the younger generation of New York City who are highly recognized in their field of work whether it be in fashion, design, architecture, business, medicine….and even some socialites. The book lets us into their lives through beautiful pictures and writing. Some of the Bright Young Things that are featured include: Alexandra and Alexandre von Furstenberg, Aerin Lauder, Moby, and Andrew Lauren just to mention a few.
I just found out that there is a London edition. It is the follow up book to her New York version. You get to step into the homes and lives of 40 new stylish and trendsetting Londoners! I cannot wait to get my hands on a copy.
