Still Washing Those Pacifiers, Eh

Still Washing Those Pacifiers, Eh

by | Baby

While I’m a big proponent of pacifiers, picking them up off the ground every four seconds stinks. Especially when you’re in that early stage where you actually still wash the thing off instead of just wiping it on your jeans. The Keep-it-Kleen self-closing...
Slings Gone Simple

Slings Gone Simple

by | Baby

I have a confession to make: Slings scare me. While the benefits are undisputed and the styles no longer just for the granola set, they’ve always seemed like the kind of thing I’d be destined to tie wrong and whoops!–out the baby would go. My mind...

I See London, I See France…

by | Baby, Kid Style

Now that Spring is here (okay, so it’s still freezing out; minor technicality.) I’m ready to get a little girlier with my daughter’s wardrobe. Is there anything cuter than little girls in sweet little dresses, with their bare, chubby knees poking out...
A Pinch of Flower

A Pinch of Flower

by | Baby

With each change of season I feel the call to update my jewelry drawer. It’s a sickness, I know, but with Spring in the air, I just can’t be asked to accessorize with the same old same old. Why, even the suggestion of it is shocking. So right now...

Two, Two, Two Pants in One

by | Baby, Kid Style

I love the concept of reversible kids clothes. And not just because I’m a shameless laundry avoider. It’s more so because I am at times too indecisive to choose between two items–I want them both. So when I came across the entirely reversible swingy,...

Boyz in the Hoodie

by | Baby, Kid Style

As much time as I spend on the web tracking down cool clothes for kids, I’m admit I’m still often at a loss for gifts when I hear a friend has a boy on the way. If only I liked those sailor suits, things would be a whole lot easier. And then I discovered...

Children of the Children of the 70s

by | Baby, Kid Style

Some trends in kidswear cannot be short-lived enough. That whole pimp genre of little boys’ tees? If I never see another one again that would be just fine. But one trend I’m loving: The groovy 70s-inspired designs on kids tees, that look eerily like the...

Bed-dazzled

I can’t be the only mother who’s tired of seeing the same old themes for kids’ rooms, especially when it comes to bedding. Not all boys want a sports-themed room, and not all girls want a ballerina-themed room. Licensed characters are even more...
Kiss Me, I May Or May Not Be Irish

Kiss Me, I May Or May Not Be Irish

by | Baby, Kid Style

While I’m all for going festive for the holidays, the problem with buying shamrock leggings and an "Erin Go Bragh" shirt for your toddler is that it looks pretty out of place every day but one. But this gorgeous capri dress and green bolero from...
This Nest is Best

This Nest is Best

by | Baby

With an infant and a rambunctious toddler to chase after, I quickly relearned the value of the sling. Basically, it’s like my hoop earrings –the essential accessory that I never leave home without. But considering I’m trying to keep some semblance of...
Drool Gets Cool

Drool Gets Cool

by | Baby, Kid Style

It’s no secret among those who know me that I hate newborn bibs. Yes I know they’re essential for very drooly babies but still. They’re bibs! I’ve held out hope that analternative would come along by the time my own newborn started...
