t-and-mom.jpg

I have my first post up now at Today Moms. It’s about celebrity adoptions and my insatiable desire for tabloids and mani-pedis. Leave comments if you feel inspired!

Also- I think that I’m going to start a new trend mixing engineer caps and huge vintage sunglasses.

Testimonials

With astonishing candor and grace, Jillian chronicles how her first difficult years as a mother allowed her to shine a more empathetic and compassionate light on her relationship her own estranged father. She is the most relatable of narrators, even though as the former lover of a prince, now married to a real life rock star, she has lived a life about which most women only fantasize. In Everything you Ever Wanted, Jillian Lauren proves once again that she is above all else a master storyteller.
