I have grave doubts about what Kate's wearing here -- it is, of course, Dior -- but graver doubts about the essay she penned for InStyle, which is not online at the moment. Please allow me to share some excerpts from The Desk of Kate Hudson: "When InStyle asked me if I would be interested in penning a first-person essay for my cover story, I was incredibly excited. A bit nervous, as my personal writing style may be more suited for a publication like The Atlantic, but I have a strong feeling all the women who read InStyle will embrace the contents of this essay." If I may be blunt: The Atlantic, my ass. Additionally, to believe that women who read InStyle don't also potentially read The Atlantic is very short-sighted and condescending. Kate then goes on to complain about the person who is writing the profile for InStyle -- which, for the record, seemed to me to be perfectly in keeping with all of their profiles, and which is also considerably better written from a technical standpoint than Kate's own essay: "...meanwhile, the writer for InStyle who is penning the supplement accompanying my essay was asking me a few questions. I don't mean this in anyway negative, but it was questions I get quite often, which I understand, as it seems to be what most people are interested in hearing about." a) This "supplement" is actually the cover story. Kate, sweetie, your essay is the supplement. b) I find it adorable that Kate Hudson thinks The Atlantic would publish a sentence as tortured as that last one was. Let me fix that for you. How about: "I don't mean this in a negative way, but her questions were ones I get quite often, because they concern several very popular topics." That's a bit flat but at least it's not entirely garbled. Kate then goes on to say some fairly sympathetic things about being a mother, but dude. I have some suspicions that some of the editors at InStyle may have her on the back of their dart boards right now. Which may explain some of the interior photos.
