Sweet Child of Mine
You know, my life might have been different if Amy Allen’s This Little Piggy Went to Prada: Nursery Rhymes for the Blahnik Brigade was around when I was a child.
Actually, not really, but I think I would have had some really cool dreams had my mother told me these nursery rhymes at bedtime. Instead I heard some weird stories about a Kitchen God who made kids but gave me mismatched ears because she was interrupted by a bathroom emergency. I swear to God! (Also, I always got weirded out looking up at my mom while she talked because everything was upside down and there wasn’t a nose above her mouth, and it made me laugh. Am I making any sense at all?)
Anyhow, a sample of the brilliance.
There was a young woman who lived in her Choos,
Though she once had a house in a smart Chelsea Mews.
So much on Jimmy,
The house had to go,
And with it, her Amex and husband in tow!
I’m warning my procreating friends now: Ask Auntie Alex to babysit and I’ll create some monsters in my craven image!

Those Valentino slingbacks in the picture are just fabulous. I think my shoe tastes (in general) do not mirror yours, but the Valentinos are just gorgeous!!!
