    I adore how great ads have the power to enliven and inspire creative thoughts and energies. I have several ads in my style files that I have saved for no other reason than I love the images. Today I was ripping through old issues of Town & Country and came across three ads that elicited the same inspired feelings as they had five years earlier.

    Please tell me I am not the only one who can relate to the grocery shopping photo! If only I could look that stylish while managing children. Enjoy.

      I used to take 3 little ones to the grocerey store. I remember utter chaos and yet when I look back, those were the most wonderful shopping events! I don’t recall wearing shoes this chic either. I love these photos too. I love any lifestyle advertising. I have a crush on Kate Spade ads.

      I love Cole Haan ads. I always find myself tearing them out of magazines and saving them too. They evoke such a great sense of casual luxury.

      What…you’re no a “Super Mom”.
      able to multitask 10 things at once and still look beautifully made up. Impossible unless you are a model doing a photo shoot with attendants hovering around you. Life is real, but it is still nice to dream. But honestly I bet you look chic all the time no matter what. I can just sense that you have that sense of style.
