HANGING AT THE NEWSROOM

Posted Jul 29 2009 @ 12:14 AM

Looking a little grumpy, Jessica Alba grabbed breakfast with Honor in Los Angeles on July 24. Letting the little "stink" take the keys (hey, it's what her daddy calls her), Jess made her way from the Newsroom Café to the car with her little one. Honor's looking more and more like her mama everyday – especially with that little scowl! Alba dressed casually for her morning outing, wearing a navy tunic dress (check out sleeveless options like Graham and Spencer's Cinch Waist Dress in Navy, Velvet's Marlo Mini Dress in Navy or Tracy Reese's Embellished Tunic in Light Navy for different looks) with strappy white sandals and a long gold necklace (check out Lisa K Designs' elegant Lace Cake Necklace in Gold/Pearl). I'm not sure which purse is the diaper bag, but I'll ignore the boring leather one because I'm too preoccupied with her white python tote (Carla Mancini's Braided Handle Tote in Off White Crocodile has a similar vibe). I like the summery white accessories, even if the navy is a little dull…. Or very dull. I do like the blonde waves though – at first I wasn't loving Jessica's lightened tresses but she's definitely learning how to make them look almost natural. Do any of you think she looks better as a brunette? Since her baby girl was born a little over a year ago, Jess has been dishing plenty of advice about being a celebrity mom. Now that Honor is getting older, she's finding parenting easier said than done: “It’s a lot more difficult to juggle motherhood and a career than I ever anticipated. So busy! And Honor is more mobile now than ever before and loves putting just about any foreign object in her mouth. I have to be a constant watchdog.” At least Jess can rest easy that whatever Honor puts in her mouth is probably non-toxic and eco-friendly in one way or another!
