Bumble Always Impresses
Looks like we are having a bit of obsession with diaper bags this week. We were more than a little excited when we received our Samantha Stroller bag from Bumble Bags. A mama can never have enough diaper bags....right? Sent to famous mommies like Sarah Chalke and Kendra Wilkinson this baby bag has simplified and upgraded our everyday look. Love that it fits onto our stroller handle and that the strap lengthens easily to be carried messenger style, freeing up both your arms. It has heaps of pockets and places to stash all your daily needs and indulgences. We went with the Starry Night pattern...original and eye catching. With lots of space and designed with quality materials (and an A-List following) Bumble Bags really is the place to get your "dream diaper bag", cause as we all know mommy, carrying an extra special bag can make a huge difference in your day.
Chic For Less
You don't always have to spend a bundle on your little bundle. It's true. You can totally get baby gear that's hip, cool and stylish and have change left over for a fancy brunch at that little French Bistro. We learned this little life lesson when we stumbled upon the swanky diaper bags by Chelsea & Main at Walmart. Yes...we said Walmart mommy. Chelsea & Main is sold exclusively there, which really makes it easy to get all your grocery shopping done and get a fab baby bag all at once. We went for the Jet Setter Diaper Tote in chocolate brown and pink. Love the polka dot change pad and the over the shoulder design. It has tons of room for mommy and baby, and even enough room for some daddy stuff too. Sometimes it's wise to spend a little less, especially if you can find something that's functional and looks fantastic. We plan on using Chelsea & Main's bags as a clever gift bag for the next baby shower we go to...just going to fill it to the top with some baby essentials and mom will be all set for that impending delivery day (as ready as you can be anyway). Very "Martha Stewart" of us if we do say so ourselves.
A-List Baby Carrier Has A New Addition
We've had a crush on Belle Baby Carriers since we met...they make the only baby carrier that our tot liked. True and tiring story. No crying or wiggling or fussing when he was in his organic denim carrier. Just happy smiles or blissful sleep. Put him in any other carrier and nobody was happy. We owe some serious shut eye to Belle's fab carrier. We were thrilled to hear that Belle has a new design called the Sugar Plum and even more tickled to get to test it out. The Sugar Plum has all the function of their original model with a little extra style tossed in. The red, gold and green stripes in warm hues really make this carrier a stunner. The shiny material adds just enough drama and originality to make this baby snuggly a mommy must have. Best part? It comes with a head rest so when baby falls asleep, you don't have to hold their head up for hours. Super mom of six, Angelina Jolie is also a Belle Baby fan, as is Julia Roberts. Easy to use, comfy for baby and it looks fabulous...what more does a busy (and fashionable) mommy need?
Warm Up With Kuki’s Latest Designs
If bold prints and funky patterns are your thing, then we have some new designs for you. Kuki, a truly original brand that we have featured before has some new threads that we just needed to let you know about. Their "Happy" collection features some smart looking jammies made of super soft cotton and their signature stripes and patterns. Love the "Zzzz" PJ's and the Mike's New Stripe blue baby blanket. The blankie is double layered and made big enough for swaddling. Too bad none of it comes in "mommy" size. Sigh. Kuki is classy enough to impress as a baby shower gift and stylish enough to keep for your own wee ones as well.
Want some Kuki of your very own? Who doesn't? Name three things you'd love to have from Kuki and we'll enter your name in a draw for one very fabulous baby blanket. Email your answer to celebritybabyclothescontest@gmail.com

Cape Clogs: Comfy & Gorgeous!
We have warm weather on the brain here at Celeb Baby Clothes...must be all that pesky snow that keeps falling. While we pine for the sunny days of spring and summer we thought we should get a head start on our Spring 2010 footwear. A fashionable mommy never waits till the last minute, we plan ahead. While looking for a perfect pair of comfy and fashionable shoes to pack for a winter getaway we stumbled upon the fab clogs at Cape Clogs. Colorful, super comfy and well known by hip celeb moms like Brooke Shields and featured in mags like Oprah, we knew we had a "must have" here. Just love the gold metallic pair Brooke was spotted wearing. Made in Sweden these shoes are a brilliant mix of modern style and sensible design. We tried out their sweet and very hip toddler line of clogs too. The kids line are very sturdy and the strap stays in place so playtime isn't interrupted. We also got to try out their new Pica Pica line and went for the children's White Blossom style (avail soon on their site). Very Suri Cruise with the wee heal, but so much fun. What little girl doesn't like to get all dressed up in fancy shoes like mommy?
Stylish Shop For Mom & Baby
When we heard about Stella Maternity and it's sister site Stella Baby we thought we'd hit the jackpot...stylish maternity clothes and baby clothes all available while we shop from home. Who has time to fuss with malls and parking your car? We prefer to scope out the latest celeb favorites and have them shipped directly to our house. More time for playing with the kids...and putting our tired feet up with a gossip mag and cup of tea. Perfect place to shop when you are heading to a baby shower and need a gift for mommy to be and baby. We chose the flirty and super classy Evita dress from Annee Matthew, a brilliant line worn by anyone who's anyone. The soft fabric hugs all the baby curves in just the right places. This sweet frock is pretty enough to wear to a fancy brunch and can easily be dressed down with tall flat boots and a cardigan. After baby is born and mommy needs to breastfeed, just gently pull the V neck over and you can feed your new bambino. Love clothes that take you from pregnancy through to after baby is born. Stella Maternity carries a well chosen selection of maternity lines from hard to find brands (just like shopping in Angie's or Gwyneth's closet!) like Noppies and Juliet Dream Maternity. For all your baby and toddler threads, Stella Baby will have you covered. With lines like Appaman, Hula Mula, and Childish Clothing, Stella Baby only offers the best. We are particularly smitten with the Baby Star line and always have been, so we picked up their Baby Star Lucy Denim Skirt made with dark wash organic denim. So stylish. Love the ruffled details and the star pockets. Besides clothes, Stella Baby also carries designer baby bags, bedding and slings. For all you mommies in the mood for a deal, Stella Maternity currently has a 70% off clearance sale on certain items. Fantastic.

The Most Fabulous Winter Party Dress
When searching for a special dress for our little one we were lucky enough to stumble upon the delightful creations at Velvet & Tweed. Timeless dresses and classy outfits are their specialty. Very "Suri Cruise-y", if you know what we mean. Based out of San Fran, California, Velvet & Tweed's boys and girls designs are simple, elegant and have just the right about of detailing to make the clothes special, but not over the top. We absolutely love the Liberty Holiday dress (which happens to be on sale now mommies) with it's lined skirt and bow...perfect for the winter birthday party scene. Our tot will be wearing this gorgeous frock paired with some cream colored tights and shiny black mary janes. What we like most about Velvet's comfy dress up wear is that it's made with care and style in mind. From the shiny buttons to the ruffled collars, their winter line is what we want to dress our children in this season. Velvet & Tweed have an online shop for those of us too far away to shop in person...thank goodness.
We have a Christmas treat just for you dear readers : use code cb25 to get 25% off Velvet & Tweed's fab clothes.
Out To Tea Makes Brilliant Hair Clippies
Can we gush about our favorite hair accessory company just one more time? Really, we do test out a lot of hair clippies, and hands down Out To Tea makes the sweetest and most stylish ones around. And they stay put...honestly, they never slip out. We've been dressing up out tots golden locks with Out To Tea's fab Christmas Holiday collection. Love the white dove the most...so stunning and goes with all the winter wardrobe, so no need to pack it away with the Christmas tree next week. Also, if it's a winter wedding you have on the brain and can't find just the right accessories for your wee flower girl, then check out Tea's gorgeous Blush Rose Trio...so pretty. Can't wait to see what new designs they'll have for spring!
Smart & Fun Last Minute Christmas Presents
When in doubt, go with tried and true momma. It's a fact for everything from clothes to dishes to baby toys...always stick with the classics. We followed that rule when doing Santa's Christmas shopping this year and went with Fisher Price. Reliable, educational and always a crowd pleaser, Fisher Price has tons of new toys that will keep your tot having fun under the tree and then some. What did we choose? Well since the toddlers can't read, we'll tell ya. We decided on the Precious Places Swan Palace and the vintage inspired Little People Play & Go Farm (50th birthday edition). The palace has a banquet hall, treasure chest and has enough pink dazzle to satisfy the little princess of your house. The special edition farm reminds us of our own childhood play time and really looks just like the one we all grew up with...yes we are a little sentimental around here when it comes to toys. Best part about choosing Fisher Price this year? You still have time, because they are carried by most department stores. So skip the uncertainty and pick some toys that you know they'll love as much as you did.
