anyone know what shorts she is wearing? She has worn the same shirts in every picture (just different shirts)since she had River. They look great and MUST be super comfortable.

Ok so this has nothing to do with River, but does anyone know anything about Keri’s hair being straight so often in the last year or so? Does anyone know if she had it straightened? I liked it curly but I think it looks fantastic this way.

Sarah’s note: Yeah, she had it chemically straightened.

I adore Keri – please put up more pictures of her and little River… Elisabeth – I was also wondering why Keri’s hair is straight. I think in season 4 of Felicity she started wearing her straight and I never understood why. She had such amazingly beautiful curly hair that really became her sweet pretty face. She’s still very pretty but I really think curly hair suited her better. Why did she opt to straighten it?

Aw, so cute, and having just commented on what Katie Holmes was wearing in the NYC summer heat, Keri is very appropriately dressed for the weather amd sitting in the cool shade.

Maya- I loved Keri’s curly hair as well, but as someone who has naturally curly hair and has straightened it I can say that having it straight is MUCH easier. You can never count on curly hair to look pretty at a special event, etc. You never know what it will look like in the morning and its not like you can just comb it or brush it to make it look presentable. I think the straight hair is much easier to deal with, especially with a new baby.

She looks amazing and has seemed so comfortable with her baby. She doesn’t seem to suffer from any new mommy uncertainty!
