Brooke Shields crosses her fingers for good luck during break from quarantine… as she wishes happy birthday to daughter and legendary photographer with throwback snaps
Brooke Shields has been enduring her home quarantine with her husband Chris Henchy and their two teenage daughters in New York City.
And on Friday, the actress, 54, stepped out for a brief reprieve from sequester and got a welcome visit from a female friend who stopped by to give her a bag of candy as she sat on her front stoop.
Feeling the love during these uncertain times, Shields graciously thanked her and then crossed her fingers in the good luck sign.

With the temperatures finally rising in Manhattan, the former child star was enjoying some fresh air when the woman dropped by with her sweet delivery.
The mother of two shunned the quarantine go-to fashion of sweatpants, and instead opted for casual-cool in dark blue jeans and a brown-patterned sweater.
On this day she wore her dark brown tresses long, straight and flowing with a part on the slight right.

Friday was also a day of celebration and remembrance in the Shields-Hency household.
The Suddenly Susan star took to Instagram in the afternoon and posted one of her classic cover-photos from the 1980s in honor of late photographer Richard Avedon’s birthday.
‘@SelfMagazine, October 1988. Photographed by #RichardAvedon,’ she wrote in the caption before adding, ‘remembering the legendary photographer today on his birthday.’
Avedon, a New York City native, died October 1, 2004 at the age of 81.
An obituary published in The New York Times gushed over his life’s work and said ‘his fashion and portrait photographs helped define America’s image of style, beauty and culture for the last half-century.’

A few hours later, the Pretty Baby star shared a couple of throwback photos of her oldest daughter Rowan for her 17th birthday.
The first two images showed the doting mom playing with her daughter during bath-time when she was a toddler.
‘Look how grown up my baby has become,’ she began in the caption.
‘Happy Birthday to my Smart, Beautiful, Kind, Generous, Discerning, Strong, Funny, Cheeky, Loyal, Versatile, Courageous, Unstoppable, No BS daughter. You truly inspire me. Love, Mama.’
She also shared a recent photo of Rowan as a grown woman, with the mother and daughter both decked out in beautiful dresses.
