Smart & Clever
Forget Harvard…we’ve got fancy dancy flashcards that will teach our tots all they need to know to get by in this crazy world…well maybe not everything, but they’ll certainly know what a rhombus is…even though we don’t. Tiffany Ard makes fabulous flashcards and nursery decor for the “science nerd” (her words…not ours) hiding inside you. We have to admit that even though science isn’t our forte, we love these clever sets of cards and posters. The graphics are original and keep baby interested, while you get to show off to your snooty friends that your wee one knows how to say “electromagnet”. Not too big or bulky, they’ll fit right into your diaper bag. Get smarter and see all that Tiffany has created at www.tiffanyard.com…..and will someone please tell us what a xylem is?
The “It” Shoe Of The Season
It’s hip, it’s stylish and it’s ours! The LEO by uber brilliant VINCENT SHOES is THE shoe to own this season. With it’s wide and bold stripes, this shoe makes miles of statement, whether on the playground or out with mommy at the cafe. We chose the navy stripes and they’ve been on our tot’s feet since the day they arrived. They really help pull together that Fall trendy look of mixing patterns. We like to mix our striped Vincents up with sophisticated floral tops and polkadot leggings. Daring and fun at the same time. The possibilities are endless with the right shoe, and we found it.

New York Style : Buddha Belly
The weekend is a time to kick back and play it cool and casual. You and your tot want to look effortlessly chic. We’ve got news for you momma…you can’t achieve that wearing Winnie The Poo. In our constant search for comfortable, yet stylish kids clothes, we came across the brilliant designs at BUDDHA BELLY. This ultra hip clothing company was created and is run by a former NYC nanny that felt inspired by her wee charges and thus created some very original and must have shirts. The fabric is buttery soft (our newborn practically lives in his Buddha Belly Peace onesie), all the shades and color combos are soothing and the graphics are simply stunning. Love the Lotus tee the most, as does the little girl of the house. Layer it over a long sleeve shirt and you’ll get more wear out of it in the cooler months to come. Besides the onesies and tees they make gorgeous thermals too…perfect for that stroll through Central Park. Pair these tees with well worn jeans and funky sneakers and your babe will be ready for a day in the city. See what we’re fussing about at www.buddhabellynyc.com
PS…we hear that Courteney Cox and Soleil Moon Frye, two very stylish celeb mommies indeed, have some Buddha Belly in their possession. Lucky kids.
Carry Your Baby With Style
We think of ourselves as baby carrying experts here at Celebrity Baby Clothes…front carriers, hip carriers,slings…we have tried them all. Love the idea of a front carrier, but we just couldn’t find the right one…why is it so difficult? Not all carriers are created equal…that’s for sure. We heard about Belle Baby Carriers and thought we’d give it one more go…so happy we did. We were lucky enough to try their gorgeous and organic demin front carrier…love this new trend of using denim in baby gear…chic and it goes with everything! It’s super lite weight, fits in our diaper bag, and it’s easy to use. Honest. There’s no rocket science required, as with most baby carriers. There is nothing like having baby rest facing you…we like to sniff their little head and keep them warm and toasty. Celeb mommy JULIA ROBERTS must agree, as she has been photographed wearing her baby using a stylish Belle Baby Carrier. We think Belle takes the prize in the very competitive and fussy world of baby carriers. You’ll toss that Swedish one when you and baby feel how comfy Belle is.

Organic & Fresh Back To School Clothes
We try to be a little more green every day, and when we find clothes that are earth friendly and stylish, we are thrilled. ECO IKE caught our fashionable eye this month. They make these super soft, 100% organic cotton tees with simple and earth conscience messages. They make a hip statement without being too preachy or “in your face”. We love the Bee Green tee…the graphics appeal to both us and our wee one..not too sweet, but just sweet enough. We went for the all natural color tee, as we like to keep it classic and neutral, but if you need a splash of color in your tot’s wardrobe, go for the blue or pink. Love that they make the girl tee’s with a fitted cut. Makes all the difference to the whole outfit. don’t you think? ECO IKE makes lap tees, eco shopping bags and a really cool family cookbook too (try the guacamole recipe, it’s fab)…Save the earth and look good doing so at www.ecoike.com
