Avril Lavigne and the tale of the diaper bag shopping spree

E! News is reporting that Avril Lavigne spent the day on monday with hubbie Deryck Whibley shopping for diaper bags.  And while it sounds like she picked up quite a few throughout the day, we want to point out that the super great Scout Bag that the couple picked out from Petit Tresor works equally as well for general computer and gadget toting as for diaper toting.

The Scout Bag from Petunia is a very dashing men's diaper bag that comes in either black or brown leather (Rubicon Rucksack), or green or gray heathered felt (Journey Pack).

Uber celebrity gossip columnist, Marc Malkin posits the idea that perhaps the angst filled singer was merely shopping for a friend.  Imagine!

Lavigne and Whibley have been dogged by pregnancy rumors for several weeks now. 

Stevie Nicks and her love of Illume

It's clear that singer Stevie Nicks (shown here with Mick Jagger) really loves our client Illume Candles.

A few years back the singer wrote a song called Illume - the opening lyrics are below:

Illume
Says the candle that I burn
A reflection in the window
All the way to point Dune
Illume, like it dances
I am a cliff dweller from the old school-

And now we've come to find out that Stevie has a racehorse named Illume...a video from a recent race is below. 

I think the only fair thing, since Stevie wrote a song  for the candles, is for a candle to be named after Stevie!  Stay tuned...it just might happen.  In the meantime Illume's new collection, Modern Naturals, has a scent called Earth Rose that would certainly do the singer justice.   

What draws Stevie to the line?  Obviously she loves the name.  Also the essential oil blended scents are truly an inspiration.  No one does home fragrance better.  And the singer's favorite scents?  Gardenia, Coconut Milk Mango, and Violet Rose (shown here).
