Baby clothing that's totally natural





Nurtured By Nature is the newest totally organic baby clothing line to hit the kids' market. Made in New Zealand, the company follows what they call the "Cocoon Philosophy" which believes that a newborn baby's first experience of the enviroment it has entered should be as comfortable and secure as the one it has just left. And so their clothing is made from organic, unbleached cotton and merino wool. Totally natural and totally comfortable. The two separate lines feature three colors and lots of pretty pieces.

I have sadly not seen them here in the USA yet, although they have a USA buyer and contact on their website. In the UK, they are all over the place.

A new online store that rocks!




Cupcake is a new online store that opened recently. I have been meaning to post on them for a while, but sadly life has been so busy. This is one store that I can truly say has it all. Usually what angers me with stores, rather online or not, is that they only carry a few of the things that I like. There are only a select few places that carry MOST of everything I love, all under one roof. This is one of those stores.

Tea, Lucy Sykes baby, Petit Bateau, She's Crafty, Posh Baby, Neopolita, Dwell, Oeuf. My God, it's like these people got into my head and opened the store I've always wanted to open, yet was always too tight with my money and too busy! Seriously, it's a great place. Please go there and buy lots of stuff so it's open a long, long time.

They are even offering free shipping right now. Someone pinch me!

Lola Sheen gets some cool gifts




I am going to do a bigger update tonight (hopefully). I just got home from LA, so it has been a long time coming.


When little Lola Rose Sheen entered the world on June 1, she not only recieved a beautiful mother, but she also got some fab gifts from Intuition. Mom Denise Richards was given a pink Bolsa diaper bag, two pairs of pink ballet slippers (one for sister Sam), and a pink Milk It onesie. Intuition is a really nice place to shop and if you are ever in LA, I really do reccomend their baby section. Their Splendid baby clothing line is great too.

Celebrity Babies also has some cool pics of little Lola up now.

Britney Spears talks to People




If anyone cares, Britney Spears and odd husband Kevin Federline are once again exploiting their fetus. Both appear on this week's cover of PEOPLE Magazine entitled "Al About My Baby". I guess I'm old-fashioned, but why must every celebrity tell everything about everything now? Do these people have no clue?

The interview is bad. Just bad. Mainly about stupid stuff like what Britney craves, how she told Kevin, and other unimportant stuff you never really cared to know.

Just skip it.

Anyhow, the one good thing about the cheesy interview inside was that we get to see what Britney has bought for her baby. The yellow ensemble above is from the Baby Gap and the robe and booties she got at babystyle in Scottsdale, Ariz. Kevin also went to Build-A-Bear and made the kid a surfer bear, while Britney liked alligator from RUSS that makes chomping sounds.

David Beckham spoils his kids in NYC




David Beckham has only been in New York a few days and has already spent a ton of cash on his family. Beckham's sole purpose for coming to the USA was to promote his new shoes and play soccer. However, he got sidetracked on Madison Ave.

David spent 2,000 pounds ($4,000) on gifts for sons Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz. This included toys, clothing, and shoes, and probably some designer earings since the older two have pierced ears (don't ask).

And not one to forget his lovely wife, David also spent 1,000 pounds ($2,000) on three pairs of vintage designer shoes for Victoria "Ex-Posh Spice" Beckham, and then picked her up some retro t-shirts and jackets at trendy store What Goes Around Comes Around.

Dress up your carrier




Tired of your average black Bjorn? So was Marta Sala and her baby Maya. So Marta made a silky cover for hers, which soon became the talk of the town. And so began BabyBellaMaya, a front carrier cover company. Try saying that one really fast.

BabyBellaMaya has all kinds of cool colors to choose from, even a Camo dad model which was featured on Daddytypes. You can buy them online and probably in stores too, but sadly the website doesn't list any.
