Style rule number 12,345

Never, ever be the last to leave a party.

Trust me, this rule applies to just about every endeavor in life. A real star doesn't wait for the limelight to fade, she steps out while she's still on top, always to be remembered in her glory.

KATE MOSS'S career has been outstanding, with more highs than lows, yet all the Pete Doherty drama has slowly taken away from her appeal. She's peaked, reinvented herself, been surrounded by drama, only to reinvent herself again, and quite frankly, I'm getting kind of tired of her behavior. It's gotten to the point, that her persona upstages any clothing. Sure we all love a bad girl, but do we really love a model with a druggie boyfriend that has more run ins with the law than Naomi Campbell?

I'm all for giving people second, third, and fourth chances, but the time has come where I'm questioning my loyalty to Kate as a consumer. I'm more excited that Irina is in the top shop campaign then about the line itself.

Well anyway, here's a little preview of some photos that are set to be auctioned at Christie's in London on May 31st.

This" never before seen" picture was taken when she was just 19 (only a year after being "discovered" at NYC's JFK airport) by Corinne Day and is rumored to go for no less than $9,500.00. (As someone pointed out in the comment section, they've seen this picture before, well so have many of us...don't know why they say it's a "never seen before" pic, but it is what it is...

Beautiful, but nothing that we haven't seen before.

So tell me darlings, has Kate Moss ran her course? will you remember her as the iconic Calvin Klein girl turned supermodel? or will you always remember her for what she is slowly becoming... dare I say it, a has been?
