Diane von Furstenberg for Gap Kids and BabyGap
The DVF for Gap Kids and BabyGap dresses are obviously a bit on the ludicrously expensive side for toddler-wear (around $80, although the collection as a whole starts at $23)...

Fabulous Beauty Find / Clinique Almost Lipstick New Spring 2012 Colors
From left: Black Honey, Shy Honey, Tender Honey, Spice Honey, Luscious Honey, Chic Honey, Lovely Honey, And Flirty Honey.
I rarely buy new lipsticks; I'm very creature-of-habit with such things and have a stockpile of my favorite nudes and reds. But at the salon on Saturday I was paging through InStyle, and did a double-take when I spotted the go-to tube of my youth (Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Black Honey was the very first piece of makeup I owned) in a gorgeous new hot-pink shade.

Tiny's (Tribeca): In Tribeca, the land of enormous, loft-like spaces, Tiny's is an adorable miniature spot with a fireplace to be reckoned with. A perfect place for a romantic date during the chilly months.
Mrs. Flax Looks At A House
So I sort of dressed in costume on my house-hunting trip last week. Kendrick says I looked like Minnie Mouse. I say that, right there, is Mrs. Flax all the way.
Erickson Beamon FW 2012
I spent last night at Milk Studios covering the backstage scene at Erickson Beamon.
I was taping a segment for one of the show's sponsors, scunci (you know, the hair accessories brand), so my focus was on the models' fabulous 1920s-with-a-twist 'dos (they used scunci products as the foundation for the styles, which in turn highlighted the incredible Erickson Beamon headpieces).
