Baby Lulu Offers Their New 2007 Spring Collection For Babies, Toddlers, and Girls in Custom Designed Bright and Fun Floral Prints

Baby Lulu

I'm pretty sure Makenna has outgrown her Baby Lulu sets I bought her last year, but they are just too darn cute to give up! Their unsurpassed quality, great fit, creative details and gorgeous prints have made them our favorite children's designer.

Baby Lulu has been designing gorgeous and functional little fashions for over fifteen years. Their gorgeous signature fabrics are custom prints designed by founder and designer Erin Murphy, whose inspirations come from vintage wallpapers, fabrics, and pottery. She also individually fits each design to fit each size, ensuring a comfortable and proper fit for our children's different body proportions and sizes. Her eye for color and pattern combination, combined with attention to high quality, has gained a dedicated consumer following. "I wanted to create a line of beautiful children's wear distinctive for it's unique styling and original spirit."

Three or four Baby Lulu Collections are offered by seasons, Spring, Fall, and Cruise. Baby Lulu's spring 2007 collection is comprised of four individual collections, Audrey's Garden, Raspberry Mums, Princess Butterfly, and Sunflower. Each collection offers a wonderful selection of mix and match items, including accessories, to create your favorite look.

Baby Lulu sent us the Twirl Dress from the Audrey's Garden collection. A floral palette of blue, pink and green is coupled with a coordinating stripe pattern. The twirl dress features cute girly details that any little girl would love. The striped bodice features straps that are embellished with ruffled pink mesh. The kerchief twirl, layered with pink mesh, offers the ultimate twirl effect. A floppy flower embellishment at the waist finishes this fun and flirty dress that is perfect for any occasion.

Baby Lulu is available in infant sizes up to 10x for children and retails from $10 - $120. The line is available at specialty boutiques across the country and at select Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s.

Sentimental Silver Hand Stamped Pure Silver Stylish Jewelry and Sterling Silver Photo Charm Jewelry

Sentimental Silver
Wear Your Memories With Style

Finding a piece of jewelry that features all four of my children's names can be difficult. Sentimental Silver enabled me to personalize a reversible pendant with all four of my girl's names on one side and my husband's and my name on the other. It's the perfect size at about 21mm x 21mm that hangs on a 16" sterling silver ball chain.
What's unique about this jewelry, besides the fact that it's your own one of a kind piece, is that it's .999 pure silver made by hand from Precious Metal Clay. Pure silver has a gorgeous brilliant white metallic luster that will not tarnish as much as sterling silver. It is also less likely to cause allergic reactions caused by nickel and copper that is found in sterling silver.

Designer Christi Johnstone hand molds, finishes, and stamps each piece of jewelry to create your one of a kind personalized jewelry. Her designs include a variety of styles that make fabulous gifts for moms, grandma's, bridesmaids, and new mommies. Engrave names, anniversary dates, birthdates, or a favorite saying or nickname. The possibilities are endless. Her photo jewelry collection is designed to showcase your favorite pictures in sterling silver photo charms on bracelets, necklaces, and even earrings.

"All of our jewelry is lovingly handcrafted and designed to be a treasured and lasting heirloom. At Christi J Jewelry it is our goal to provide you with high quality products and excellent customer service."

Celebrities who own Sentimental Silver include Hayley Rey from Dr. 90210 and Tori Spelling.

Koo Koo Bear Kids Monogrammed Sleepyhead Bunny and Upscale Children's Room Decor, Gifts, and More

Sleepyhead Bunny

I'm pretty sure 75% of Makenna's room is filled with stuffed animals. They are on shelves, in baskets, the closet, everywhere. And, as much as I'd like to get rid of some of them, she just adores each one and would be heart broken if I removed any. We had originally only let her have one "friend" with her in her bed. Today I counted and there are 16 in her bed! Yes, that is excessive, and I have removed some. After an afternoon of tears, we now have five, including her new Sleephead Bunny, which she loves to cuddle with in bed.

These little bunnies are perfectly sized for little ones to hug and cuddle; Makenna calls her bunny "Squishy". One of the things I love about this bunny is there isn't any fur. Babies and tots are known for immediately sticking things in their mouths and we don't have to worry about shedding fur with The Sleepyhead Bunny. These infant-safe bunnies have received the Oppenhein Toy Portfolio Gold Seal. They are super-soft and plush and are dressed for night-time in pastel striped slumber suits and coordinating caps.

Available at Koo Koo Bear Kids, The Sleepyhead Bunny is available in two sizes, medium at 15" long and large at 22" long and is machine washable. Add your own personal message on the ear with monograming for an additional $10.00, available in your choice of three available letter styles.

Dragonflies and Ladybugs

I love the unique styles and superior quality of upscale boutique children's clothing. There's certainly no shortage of online boutiques offering these adorable fashions. Dragonflies and Ladybugs is one of my favorites. They are continuously adding new products at great value and offer fabulous promotions for their customers.

Dragonflies and Ladybugs sent us the "Dot" flutter sleeve dress from Room Seven's spring collection. Brecht Olsthoorn, talented daughter of the founders of European label, Oilily, founded her own designer label, Room Seven. What began as a children's bedding collection has now evolved to include children's clothing and playwear that can be found in thirty countries around the world. Her whimsical collection of gorgeous clothing for boys and girls are of the highest quality, featuring gorgeous exclusive prints, embroidery, and sweet embellishments. This adorable dress is created from a lightweight cotton that features bright flowers and dots, is fully lined with a white lightweight cotton, and is finished with a tie sash at the back. Makenna loved the "flouncy" feel of the dress as she twirled about.

Owner Robyn Johnson founded Dragonflies and Ladybugs in December 2004. Her obsession for searching for the latest fashions with the highest quality for her daughters led her to create her own online store. "Finding and selling unique styles and quality children’s clothing has become our passion. We strive to provide the HIGHEST quality and style in children’s boutique clothing to fit all personalities."

Their online boutique offers a variety of tiny fashions for children from some of our favorite designers, including Baby Nay, BabySara, Beetlejuice, CachCach, Catimini, Chatti Patti, Le Pink, Little Mass, Jack and Lily, Meli Meli, Mish Mish, Pipsqueaks, Room Seven , Sweet Potatoes, and Za Za Couture.

The Ultimate Shoelace by Xtenex Creates Custom Fitted Shoes for Easy Slip On and Off for Children and Adults

The Ultimate Shoe Lace

Until now, I've insisted on Velcro shoes for my tots, but with these new innovative laces, slipping shoes on and off are simple. I laced Makenna's shoes to a comfortable fit, tied a knot at each eyelet, and cut the remaining lace off. Her shoes didn't slip off her heel and her shoes were easy to put on and to remove.

The Ultimate Shoelace™ by Xtenex are pre-tensioned elastic knots that collapse when stretched for easy lace-up and adjustment. The knots re-emerge when the tension is released to create a comfortable fit. These fabulous laces create custom fitted shoes and enable you to slip them on and off, but still maintain tension in specific areas.

I decided to give The Ultimate Shoelace™ a try myself. Since I never read instructions, I immediately began lacing my shoe, pulling snuggly with each insertion. Had I read the part that said, "remember to lace shoe loosely to start", maybe I wouldn't have lost feeling in my right baby toe. The laces were simple to insert and once I loosened them to my desired fit, I regained feeling in my baby toe. I left one of my regular laces in one shoe and adjusted both laces to a comfortable fit. I wasn't even out of my driveway and my normal laced shoe was already loose and my shoe began slipping on my heel. I was really amazed at the difference between the two. By the time we had returned home from our walk to the park, The Ultimate Shoelace™ hadn't slipped, unlike my other normal lace.

Benefits:

• You adjust the laces only once and they will stay in place for life.
• Indexed lace tensioning nodules maintain a custom desired fit at each eyelet for a never binding perfect fit every time.
• Comfortably stabilizes footwear fit around the foot to reduce footwear slippage that can cause hot feet, blisters and foot fatigue.
• Shoes slip on and off with relative ease without affecting the lace placement.
• Enhances outsoles, insoles, arch supports and orthotics.
• Indexed tensioning allows enhanced stabilization for sport specific needs.
  

The Ultimate Shoelace™ by Xtenex is available in 21-inch, 30-inch and 40-inch sizes and 28 color options. Prices start at $6.95 on the Web and in retail stores.

Kathy Lo Rocks Custom Designs Waterproof Reversible Photo Necklaces, Bracelets, Cuff Links, and Rings

Kathy Lo Rocks

I've never been a fan of photo lockets, it seemed a bit old fashioned to me. I certainly don't need to add any more years to my life. Then, I was introduced to Kathy Lo Rocks jewelry and loved the modern style of her jewelry. Kathy Lowenstern's creative nature has inspired her to create beautiful personalized jewelry, which is showcased in 250 stores throughout the country.

Her most popular necklace is the large pendent at 1"x1", which I received. Honestly, I was a little concerned that it would be too chunky for simple little me. It laid beautifully and didn't feel or look overwhelming. The images are crystal clear and vibrant in color. In order to preserve the life of your jewelry, I wouldn't recommend swimming in it, but an occasional shower probably wouldn't harm it. These charming keepsakes will be cherished and are made to last a lifetime.

• Jewelry is beautifully handcrafted with sterling silver.
• The image is 100% waterproof, permanently placed behind protective acrylic.
• It's reversible. Feature two pictures, or choose a beautiful Japanese Chiyogami paper for the reverse. The metallic in the paper picks up the silver from the frame.
• Easily upload the images with Pixture to custom design your jewelry and your jewelry arrives within two weeks.
  

Their amazing collection offers a variety of sizes and styles including necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings, and even cuff links. Pendants are available in three sizes, small at 1/2", medium at .34", and large at 1", enabling you to choose the size that's perfect for you. Feature some of your most memorable moments such as her first steps or first smile. Father's Day and Mother's day is approaching and their unique photo jewelry is a unique gift that will be cherished forever.
