I just wrote, "Carolina Herrera is so relaxing to me." Except this is Monique. But it FEELS like it could be a Carolina to me, and indeed, a lot of the time with her I find myself looking at the gowns and thinking of other lines.

You know how people who are pregnant sometimes come up with joke names for their fetuses, and there's always the fear that it'll stick and they'll end up ACTUALLY naming the child Nugget? This is the Getting Dressed For A Party version of that, somehow

Dawson and his wife Kimberly are having their FIFTH baby. So please, everyone, pour some out for her pelvic floor. (Seriously, I admire anyone whose body can handle this. The Chargers QB has EIGHT CHILDREN with the same woman and I think she should be given a medal.)
