Fall is here and we are expecting cooler temps, walking on crunchy fallen leaves, and Halle Berry's baby boy any day now. That baby bump is absolutely amazing and beautiful. I love that Halle went bold with a blue and white striped maxi dress that hugs her belly and flaunts a deep-V neckline and long shoulder holes, which exposes a very sexy black lace bra.

Not only is Halle wearing pregnancy well, she's showing off how motherhood and having baby number 2 at 46 years of age is fantastically possible.

Sure, she's Halle Berry -- only one of the world's most beautiful women blessed with beautiful bone structure and a Bond girl body. But she still puts one foot in front of the other just like the rest of us. She enjoys smoothies from Jamba Juice just like the rest of us. She takes her daughter Nahla to American Girl just like the rest of us do for our own daughters. Even if it isn't American Girl but rather some less expensive American Girl knock-off ... like I do with my daughter because ... I'm not Halle Berry.

Halle Berry puts on a black lace bra just like so many of us do ... and she's going to show that bra off damnit, because it's sexy and confident and hey, this dress hangs too low and who can be bothered putting a bulky tank top under it. Show off the lace bra! Why not?

Our bodies come in all shapes and sizes, and we should show love to each and every one. We fluctuate in size before, during, and after pregnancy, and if we want to show off our curves (or our bras) in every stage of their curvy-ness, then we should. We can be sexy and a size 2, sexy and a size 12, sexy and in our third trimester of pregnancy, and sexy in our fourth trimester post-baby body.

Flaunt it, Halle! Pregnant mamas, flaunt it, too!

What do you think of Halle's maternity look?

Kim Kardashian Keeps North West Hidden But Does She Have Another Agenda?

Kim Kardashian has made it very clear that she wants to distance herself from her famous family. She's moving into her own house and she fired her publicist to hire one who doesn't represent any of her family members. She's done all of this with the blessing of her baby daddy, Kanye West. 

Now she's really driving her point home. Sources say that Kim won't let North West, the baby of a thousand faces, be filmed for Keeping Up With the Kardashians. This doesn't sound so much like a bid to make sure her child's privacy is respected. It sounds like another attempt to assert her own identity as a would-be A-lister. This might be a huge mistake. 

Kim is desperate to elevate her star status, and in the process, she might be losing everything about her that was appealing. We loved watching Kim interact with her family. We loved that while she was stylish, she was also accessible. If she turns her back on that, it's as good as turning her back to her fans.

Plus, and I'm not saying this to be mean-spirited, what are the odds of her plan even working? Anna Wintour's already said she'll never work with Kim, which is the high fashion kiss of death. Without any other real skills to offer, how can she expect to be welcomed into the upper echelon? Seems a bit, well, naive.

Do you think Kim's on the right track?

Paralyzed Bride Keeps Her Promise and Walks Down Aisle on Her Wedding Day (VIDEO)

There are so many things a bride looks forward to on her wedding day. Those pre-shindig photos with her bridesmaids, getting treated like a queen in the wedding suite, and the first taste of wedding cake -- for starters. But the biggest, greatest moment of all? That walk down the aisle to her future husband. That almost didn't happen for Stevie Beale.

Seven years ago at age 17, Beale was involved in a car accident that paralyzed her from the waist down. It was at a therapy center in Michigan where she met her future husband Jared VanAusdale, a friend of another patient there. This past weekend, after months of intense physical therapy and practice, Stevie walked down the aisle with the help of a walker to meet him at the altar.

Yeah, I got a little choked up too.

It's a beautiful story, one that proves the intense power of love. Stevie told Today that her fiance was the number one reason why she was able to walk down that aisle. After encouraging her through therapy sessions multiple times a week, she looked to him for comfort when it felt like her goal was impossible. In the end, Stevie wanted to prove to herself that with the right kind of attitude and intense determination, she could do even the hardest task she set her mind to. And she did.

Stevie's husband summed up her efforts perfectly: "She could've felt sorry for herself," said VanAusdale. "Instead she grabbed that situation by the horns, turned a negative into a positive, and helped so many people along the way."

Watch Stevie walk down the aisle, here:

How awesome is this?
