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.

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

Tame That Mane Mama
A few weeks back we told you about our new flat iron from FHI HEAT…we gushed really. The entire line at FHI HEAT is a celebrity stylist favorite and used by Nicole Kidman and Miss Aniston (not a celeb mommy, but she has great hair doesn’t she?). Last week we got to try out their fabulous new brushes…and it’s a good thing we had them with us on vacation as we forgot our handy new flat iron. These new lightweight brushes did most of the work for us, which as any smart mommy knows is worth a million dollars (these professional brushes only cost about $20 bucks). The round brush was best for us with our short hair, but they’ve also come out with a curved and a paddle brush too. The brushes combine tourlamine and nano silver, which honestly just confuses us, but it certainly makes our hair look conditioned and healthy. Good hair can make your worst mommy nightmare disappear. Dirty diaper? Who cares when your hair is shiny. Screaming baby at the cafe? Just run your fingers through your sleek new ‘do and smile. We tried it, and it works.

Fall Nessesity:Blundstone For Kids

It’s that time of year again…the air has that familiar chill at night. Time to pack up your swimmers and sandals and pull out the warmer wardrobe. Don’t despair momma…the cool weather is just the perfect excuse you need to get some smashing boots for your tot. Our choice this fall? Blundstone. This Aussie cult fave has such a good reputation, and now they make boots for children too. Their kids line is called Blunnies and they are simply fabulous. Totally durable, sturdy and tough enough to handle just about anything your toddler does…a necessity for a truly stylish Fall wardrobe. We went for the rich chocolate brown pair, safe and classic, but the unexpected fushia pair is calling our name too. They go with just about anything, and slip on so easy…our wee one loves that she can put them on all by herself. Check out this absolute must have at www.blundstone.com and at www.blundstone.ca for our Canadian friends.

Back To School In Style


Yes, yes, we know we said we were tired of cute little animal shirts…however we may have been too hasty in our dissing. Our little tot loves tees with animals that go moo and oink, so we had to find one we could both agree on. We came across Colette Kids while searching for back to school clothes, and must say that we just love their hand silk screened shirts. Colette’s tees and onesies have cool geometric interpretations of animals…not too cutesie and very original. The shades and graphics are modern and unisex, and they even offer organic onesies. Our favorite? Charlotte The Pig won over our household…but Rufus The Dog is a close second. All that matters is that our wee tot loves her piggy tee and that mommy thinks it’s hip too. Colette Kids has a brilliant sale on now (hurrah!). Find your favorite animal at www.colettekids.com

I’m A Smart Girl

Our tot’s favorite thing to say these days is “I’m a smart girl!”, and we couldn’t agree with her more…and what smart girl doesn’t like to wear clothes with other smart girls on it? We are so over the “Wonderwoman retro t-shirt thing”, and thrilled to find a company making original shirts with characters that portray girls in a strong, clever and humorous way. Gohgirl makes tees, onesies and paper goods that sport modern secret agents from all over the globe. So fresh and funky and way cooler that wearing a Dora or Cinderella tee. Our favorite? Siena, the secret agent from Italy …she sports some stylish glasses and looks very smart indeed. Each shirt comes with a little blurb of your agents secret powers…so funny! Who do we think would love these tees? Why the Joilie-Pitt girls of course. Shiloh and Z would rock these tees and look hip doing so. Have a sneak peek at Gohgirl’s snazzy creations at www.gohgirl.com Watch out boys…here come some smart girls!
Oh, and P.S…they are having a major sale right now.

Fit For A Queen

What makes our day? Finding gorgeous lounge clothes that make being a mommy and breastfeeding a little more comfortable and glamorous. If ya look good, you feel better…it’s a simple fact. We just heard about Queen Bee, a brilliant Aussie online boutique that has a really pretty nursing cami that we just needed to own. When you are feeding your new baby every couple of hours you need to wear clothes that provide easy access, and this classy and feminine cami does just that. Wearing attractive clothes after having a baby makes you feel special and pretty which is just what you need when you’re super tired and can’t even remember the last time you shaved your legs. We like wearing ours with black flared yoga pants, or dark capris jeans if we’re meeting the mommies for lattes. Throw a light cashmere shrug over it to dress it up a little. Love how easy the clasps open for feedings and the generous length provides extra coverage while we work off the pregnancy pounds (and hides the fact that we still eat ice cream every night). Toss that baggy tee out, you deserve better momma! See all that Queen Bee has to offer at www.queenbee.com.au

Look Smart & Original

We’re tired of turtles and various sea creatures adorning our tots tees. Call us high maintenance (we are), but is a little creativity in the kids tee shirt world too much to ask? So thrilled we discovered Alpha Buddies, a brilliant company that makes tees with the “A is for Apple” theme, but with an intelligent twist. They focus on themes like poetry, classical music, history and sports. All subjects we hope that inspire our little learners. We thought the “S is For Shakespeare” was spot on and scooped it up for our little chatterbox. Got a future piano player in the house? Check out the “M is for Mozart” onesie. Featured in the highly respected children’s apparel mag, Earnshaw’s, it’s only a matter of time before the Jolie-Pitt twins are sporting Alpha Buddies designs on their way to the Louvre with mommy.
*CONTEST: Tell us where (what US state) Alpha Buddies is based and we have a tee for you. Email the answer to celebritybabyclothescontest@gmail.com by midnight Aug, 8,2008. Random draw for the winner!
