Matilde Beldroega Creations

I love these dolls from Matilde Beldroega.  I stumbled upon them while browsing through Etsy and couldn’t get enough of their sophisticated charm.  I jut love the man dolls.  The expression on their faces, the facial hair and the glasses.  Love the glasses!  The plaid little donkey is also an original fave.

See the rest of the collection HERE.

Design Star: Babylady Inc

Penguins! sweatshirt and Harem Pant

My FAVORITE! Decker dress

You + Me sweatshirt

Gabba Pant

The Fall collection from one of my favorite designers is out and I am all goo gaga over it. Kat, the designer just has such a great eye and her creativity and amazing style just blows me away. Not only does she have undeniable fashion sense but she is also one of the nicest people you could ever meet, I mean EVER!!! I had the honor of having lunch with her while in NYC!

I was excited to see the new collection by Babylady inc which is so  fun, fashion forward and super cool. I only wish the Harem pants, You+Me sweatshirt and the Decker dress came in my size!

My favorite? The decker dress just blew me away! Designed to give the comfort of a t-shirt dress but with the added faux collar with cute buttons for added style.

Congrats Babylady inc on another beautiful and amazing collection!

Playtime Part 2

I know this post is a little late and you probably saw everyone’s post on their day at Playtime but I thought I would tell you about mine anyways! :) This was my first time in NYC and my first Playtime event. I was excited to go and see the new designers, new collections and have a fun girls weekend with my friends Inessa and Angela! We stayed in Soho and had a great time! Our hotel was right in the middle of so many wonderful restaurants and places to go! The first night we ate at one of the yummiest Brazilian restaurants ever and then walked around and explored NYC a bit before we headed back to the hotel for some giggles!

The next morning we woke up and walked down to Playtime! We talked to all the designers and had such a fun time seeing all the great new things awaiting you for Fall! These owls are part of the Bobo Choses collection. Cute right? I know the cape that they collaborated with Wovenplay is going to be a amazing hit! Love!

Can you find the Jess Brown doll? I have so many new labels to talk to you about so stay tuned for more. I also have a great giveaway coming up so watch out for it! xoxo

Holiday Picks- Boys

I am in the middle of planning a trip to visit my sister in Hawaii. This is the first time I will be taking my kids on the plane by myself for 5 hours. Now, there is a part of me that is excited because this will be the first time Carter rides on an airplane and the first ride Chrsitian will probably remember. I’m excited about taking off and landing and experiencing the ride with them but I’m not going to lie, the excitement wares off when I start thinking about all the possible things that can go wrong. Everyone knows it’s not a fun ride when there is someon’s child crying in the back of the plan. The piercing sobs can make any one cringe and want to hide out in the itsy-bitsy airplane bathroom to just get away from it (all you men, hello….welcome to what we call motherhood). Maybe crying isn’t their thing, maybe it’s kicking the seat in front of them, screaming, wanting to run around and the list goes on.

I don’t exspect any of this from my kids because they are 3 and 5 but I do expect them to get restless, to not understand that their plastic power ranger karate chops are louder then they think and to make loud embarrassing comments like the over processed plan snacks are disgusting (and that is why I will be packing some good snacks!)!

One thing I am enjoying though is picking out and purchasing a bunch of new summer clothes for them! Here are some picks for the good old suitcase. Trust me the packing should be fun because now we all have to pay an extra $25 to even get it to their destination! 

Hello Shorty! Wovenplay Starfish Shorts, Munster Board Shorts, Bobo Choses Sail Shorts

Where The Wild Things Are! Nico Nico Bird ShirtMini Rodini Mandrill Tee, Stella McCartney Arlo Tee

Best Foot Forward: Havaianas flip flops, Silver Sneakers,Native Rubber Footwear

Tomorrow come back for my favorite things to take and what you have to leave behind for your own sanity!
