Page 44 Sigerson Morrison bow tie flats($315) and beaded necklace from Nicole Farhi($230--reminds me of the anthropologie necklace I fell hard for!).
Page 86 Oils by Jo Woods. They look Shu Uemura-ish. Amka is a cross between jasmine and peeled orange. Available at Bergdorf Goodman.
Page 88 Neutrogena Body Oil: I have used this for years.
Page 95 Rose Barbare by Guerlain. It is a wonderful rose based fragrance. It is no 2000 et une Rose but it is impressive. Available at Bergdorf Goodman according to Lucky. The last time I was at Bergdorfs I did not see it.
Page 103 featured products that contained the cardamom note. This is one of my favorite notes in a fragrance.

I love Lucky!
Ok--I really hate to say this, because I know she is at a dangerously unhealthy weight....BUT
I think she looks so much better now than she did over a year ago.
EEEKS.
Jesus, Nicole's got to eat a cookie or she'll die!
I assume the "essentials" they're referring to Ms. Richie revealing are all the bones in her freaking skeleton??? I shuddered when I got my issue...
Nicole looks so scary!
Annie, the NY Times had a great piece today on the return of the slip. Made the Siren sooooo happy. They mentioned this issue, so after this nice summary I will have to get it, Canadian prices or no. Smooch!
I am sure that the bones in her chest were airbrushed away. She looks better in this photo than in the paparazzi photos because of the airbrushing and retouching. I can actually tell where this photo was retouched.
What an ill-fitting dress.
Thanks Mel! I searched for it today on the site but could not find it.
P: I read that she was encouraged to lose weight so she could fit into sample sized clothes. I feel like she lost her way on her path to transforming herself. I hope she gets better.
What really bothers me is that the evidence of her drastic weight loss has been airbrushed away. I guarantee that if they had left the photo untouched, people would be gasping in concern over her health, rather than saying she looks great. Check the texture of the photo on her chest. And I thought that sample sizes were to fit runway models, and that they were cut to a size 4 or 6. Tyra Banks is a size 8, by the way!
Hi P-
Sample sizes are a size 2.
I read somewhere that all the young starlets are being encouraged to lose weight to fit into these pieces. I read this in the last batch of magazines we received. I will look and let you know where the article appears.
The Stella McCartney dress looks huge on Nicole. Did anyone else notice that????
