Baby Bee Bags- Really stylish with versatility all Moms will appreciate!

Click picture to see what makes this bag unique!

Here is an awesome diaper bag that we were recently sent to review from Baby Bee Bags. I will start by saying that we do not/will not review all products that are sent to us. If we really like them, we will tell you how great they are! If we don't, our motto is "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."

This bag we immediately fell in love with! The fabric is a soft and easy to clean microfiber. The zippers open easily and there are many compartments to keep everything organized. Currently pregnant with my third baby, I have used many diaper bags and backpacks over the last few years to lug all of the baby/toddler necessities. What I love about this bag is that it doesn't look like a diaper bag. It's stylish and versatile! It can be used as a backpack, over the shoulder style AND the front part zips off which can be used as a simple purse so you don't have to lug all of your baby stuff with you if you are going out without the baby! I can tell this bag was designed by a Real Mom.

Check out this youtube video of how it works below!

Here are a couple of our favorite gorgeous fabrics it comes in!

LOMBOK: Simple & Stylish Inspiration For Your Home.

1/4/2009

Happy New Year!

With each New Year, I peek around my house and try to figure out how I can de-clutter, re-organize and re-decorate. I somehow seem to get real bored with styles and furniture placement real quick. And the clutter gets real old real fast! If you are looking for some new decorating ideas for your home this year, check out this site: Lombok to get some ideas. The store has a fresh and elegant style, yet is simple and not too modern for most homes, and especially homes with small children.

Some of the styles sort of remind me a bit of Pottery Barn or Restoration Hardware here in the US. Here is one of my favorite bedrooms, which they call their Shabby Chic look (click on picture to see more detail)

Of course, the beautiful window and architecture in this room does accent this furniture, but the textured paint on the wall, bed & bedding would look gorgeous in any room. I’d love to get this romantic vintage look in my bedroom and put these romantic windlights or tealight holders beside my bed or even outside on my deck in the summer.

Being the polka dot lover that I am, the other fun item I especially loved was this lamp
I love its stylish grown up charm. Who ever said polka dots had to bold and bright or just for kids?

Their embossed mirrors, which I just adore, would look gorgeous in just about any room as well. I would particularly like to put them in our front entry way.

Because I am not quite the world traveler or the math wiz, I am not sure how much things on this site cost in US dollars, although I am sure it would be easy to google and figure out. I do wish this site had a currency converter and would state which countries they deliver to. The only other drawback I found with LOMBOK is that they have not physically made their way into the US yet. However, the store seems to be making quite a splash in London and other parts of the UK. If you are traveling, make sure you stop by one of their gorgeous stores to give you some inspiration for your own home. If you are not going abroad, simply take a look around their beautiful site to see if anything inspires a new and simpler styler for your home.

Fun Santa Site!!

Check out Macy's Website and turn yourself or you kids into Santa! You can watch the whiskers grow and they look real! We just LOVE this site.

Macy's always knows how to celebrate Christmas!

Blanky Clip Giveaway!!

November 25th, 2008

Blankyclip Giveaway!

I don't even have a little one in a stroller or car seat anymore, but I hate to give these away! How cute are these blankyclips? I was even thinking what else could I use them for? Could I use them in my office? Maybe they would be cute on my daughter's baby stroller.... Anyway, I will raffle them off to one lucky reader!

The reason I love this product so much is because I remember the challenge of keeping the sun off of my kids when they were itty bitties. I remember long walks around the block fending off the sun with a blanket that kept falling down either from the wind or from them tugging on it! I even remember using my cell phone clip to keep the blanket up on the stroller and walking backwards when the sun was really strong!

This is a product any seasoned mother would appreciate, but probably not the first thing listed on a baby registry. However, this would be a great surprise gift for any new mom even though they may not think to list it on the baby registry. So when you go to BabiesRus to get a gift your girlfriend's shower and the only thing you see left is cloth diapers, burp cloths and butt cream, instead- just order the blankyclips online. They come in three flavors- bear, ducky or sheep and come with matching super soft blankets.

Don't let your baby's blankie drag on the dirty ground!



Snuggled up tight!!

To win a sheep blankyclip with a pink blanky, please visit the blankyclip website to check them out! Then post a comment here telling us what you like best about this adorable product and something cute about taking a walk with your baby! I will randomly pick a winner on December 2nd- 2008. Make sure we have your e-mail! Also, add yourself as a follower to the right so you don't miss out on future giveaways.
