adoption

“I suppose that’s the biggest part of being an adopted child—

knowing you were wanted that badly, that completely.

It can be the most sturdy of bonds.”

Why adoptive parents like Sandra Bullock feel that 'the perfect child will find you'

Sandra Bullock and Hoda Kotb share a special connection — both agree they were destined for motherhood by adopting their children.

Hubert de Givenchy, RIP

Onscreen, the actress usually played the frothy, flighty heroine who suited her busty blond looks and guileless blue eyes. 

At first glance it was tempting to typecast her as someone who giggled and wriggled a lot. 

It took Julia less than five minutes to revise her opinion. 

Lily was a sharp, witty, ambitious woman who exploited her looks rather than being exploited by them. 

She was also very much at home in the traditional parlor of the Knightsbridge house, 

looking very cool, very British, 

and very wifely in a simple blue Givenchy.
