But this is not one of
Ah, motherhood. A great return on your investment! Kids, though – you can’t live with them, can’t live without them. Especially not if they’re your designated IG photographer. Recently, Lily Aldridge took part in a campaign with New York-based retailer, Rag and Bone, entitled the “DIY Project”, which features a number of other celebrities and
Kylie Jenner is about to be the youngest female billionaire, which is undeniably awesome and a huge feat. But, last week, Forbes had the star on their cover and used the term “self-made billionaire,” which seems pretty off-base. Forbes’s newest cover girl has grown a 900 million dollar cosmetic company in less than 3 years. She
