..and not of the rubber variety....

Gloves, I mean, glorious gloves!

This post was to be about gloves but then who can resist Kate Hudson in this charming shoot for Harper's Bazaar (2007)..the photographer was Peter Lindbergh....



AND she IS wearing gloves in four of the photos so I guess - mission accomplished!
In my humble view (and what do I know, n'est pas?) long, satin gloves are one of the sexiest accessories a woman can own (and it helps if you actually wear them)...

  1. Wow. These photos are lovely! Oh to have dresses and places to wear them like this! Not a magazine shoot though! Well....Yeah, that'd be okay too!
    :)
    I found a beautiful pair of deep coffee kid opera gloves last week at the thrift store. Tags still attached. They are very small so I will list them in my "Esty shoppe to be", if I ever get it open! :) I used to collect gloves and hats so I have a wee bit of inventory stashed...
    Hope you have a great weekend!

  5. Do strippers still use gloves in their routines?
    Anyway, Kate looks beautiful in that shoot.

  6. Laura, you are absolutely right, she IS funny!

    Lenore, darlink, I did not get to the agent but I did get to the waxing - who knows when a six-pack might present itself - we HAVE to be ready...and yes, long gloves are a must as well! ox
