Playing outdoors in very hot weather unprotected could be a very costly mistake for your children. One easy way to provide protection is by wearing a hat. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/TBLNb_vY_DI/AAAAAAAAAeI/3nzGxtx7jiY/s1600/bg_dolly%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;283&quot; qu=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;https://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/TBLNb_vY_DI/AAAAAAAAAeI/3nzGxtx7jiY/s400/bg_dolly%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Is there anything quite as adorable as a cute little girl wearing a sun hat? Judging from these pics, probably not.

I favor this red, white and blue floral design. The combination of the floral and polka dot elements keeps this bonnet fresh and feminine - perfect for a sweet little girl. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.littlelids.com/dolly.htm&quot;&gt;The &quot;Dolly&quot; is priced at $18&lt;/a&gt; and is available in sizes 0-12 and 2-4 with the latter running on the small side.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;/center&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/456992281398835842'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/456992281398835842'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thekiddiefashionista.com/2010/06/littlelidscom-girls-floral-sun-bonnet.html' title='LittleLids.com Girls Floral Sun Bonnet'/><author><name>Dania</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03582268463630003731</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S__R5PPCkDI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/nHXKcKYRCYc/S220/20100528_275+-+Copy.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/TBLNjEblAjI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/pYcAhs2v4q4/s72-c/dolly_girl%5B1%5D.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856153838275232147.post-652534454537821924</id><published>2010-06-06T10:30:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2010-06-16T20:19:14.472-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="giveaways"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="organic candies"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Yummy Earth"/><title type='text'>Yummy Earth Organic Lollipops Giveaway</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: #cccccc; font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;*Sponsored solely by The Kiddie Fashionista&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/TAut3_1QvZI/AAAAAAAAAeA/VlsbMPAkjag/s1600/YummyEarth_Counter_Bin_of_lollipops_-_150_count_-_Assorted_-_00170%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; gu=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/TAut3_1QvZI/AAAAAAAAAeA/VlsbMPAkjag/s320/YummyEarth_Counter_Bin_of_lollipops_-_150_count_-_Assorted_-_00170%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;We love &lt;a href=&quot;http://yummyearth.com/index.html&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yummy Earth&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; lollipops and gummy bears at my home.

Aside from the large amounts of cash we&#39;ve been spending lately on everything from his cap &amp;amp; gown, photos, and many other miscellaneous items, I&#39;ve been searching for something special and, of course, stylish to commemorate this milestone in my son&#39;s life.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chasing-fireflies.com/&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; gu=&quot;true&quot; height=&quot;105&quot; src=&quot;https://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_7KuLMt1yI/AAAAAAAAAdI/vWdwvZu2TFw/s400/logo.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;I came across this website, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chasing-fireflies.com/&quot;&gt;Chasing Fireflies&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, a boutique that carries an edited selection of unique clothing, toys and gifts for children and babies . It was here that I finally found what I was looking for. The first is an adorable customized t-shirt. You can add your child&#39;s name, choose between a boy or girl&#39;s head (topped with a graduation cap) and even pick the hair color on the graphic. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_7KcZm37YI/AAAAAAAAAdA/bL1VAab3k48/s1600/personalized+graduation+accesories.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; gu=&quot;true&quot; height=&quot;141&quot; src=&quot;https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_7KcZm37YI/AAAAAAAAAdA/bL1VAab3k48/s400/personalized+graduation+accesories.png&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;I also decided to add a cute little gift bag filled with all kinds of graduation-themed goodies. Though not customizable, the gift bag makes a fun gift for a deserving graduate.

If you have a little girl whom you love to play hair stylist with (yes, I fall into this category), well I have reviewed two hair accessory products for you. My review grades are based upon look, comfort and practicality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The following products are from classic hair accessory manufacturer&#39;s &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc66cc;&quot;&gt;Goody Colour Collection for girls&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Product 1: &lt;strong&gt;“Colour Collection” Light Hair Match Barrettes #6&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grade: &lt;strong&gt;“A”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_qQmogiyCI/AAAAAAAAAbQ/-wJHQWMVHGY/s1600/20100523_8.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; gu=&quot;true&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_qQmogiyCI/AAAAAAAAAbQ/-wJHQWMVHGY/s200/20100523_8.JPG&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;These barrettes are great for girls like mine who have fine hair. I tried them with her hair picked up and with her hair loose; both times they held her hair very well. This particular color selection was good because it blended nicely with my daughter’s medium/dark blonde hair. As far as comfort was concerned, they were not cumbersome at all and, as most of you well know, a three year old will not hesitate to tell you if something is bothering her.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Product 2: &lt;strong&gt;“Colour Collection” Dark Match Headbands #5&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grade: &lt;strong&gt;“C”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_qRJj9o1DI/AAAAAAAAAbY/-SryN2wnJbg/s1600/securedownload%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; gu=&quot;true&quot; height=&quot;156&quot; src=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_qRJj9o1DI/AAAAAAAAAbY/-SryN2wnJbg/s200/securedownload%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The main reason why these headbands did not score well was due to how tightly they fit. My daughter complained that they hurt too much. I was not surprised because it is an elastic headband and probably felt as if she had a rubber band wrapped around her head. To be fair, I had a seven year old playmate of my kids try this headband. She liked how it looked and felt. She does have thicker hair than my daughter and this probably serves as extra cushioning around the scalp. But, as far as I’m concerned, this reinforces my love of wide and stretchy fabric headbands. Until next time………… :-)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i836.photobucket.com/albums/zz288/jmgersh/FrancesSig.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: #cccccc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Disclosure:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt; Goody provided samples of &#39;Colour Collection for Girls&#39; hair accessories for this review.

He only attends for a few hours in the morning, so he&#39;s never had to take the dreaded afternoon nap. Thank goodness, he wouldn&#39;t be able to stay still for more than a couple of minutes! Even though he&#39;s not fond of naps and such, he is, however, completely taken with the little napster&#39;s sleeping bags. He&#39;s asked me if we can get one for him. Not that he needs one. Just for the fun of it. We&#39;ll see about that request. If your little one is in need for a sleeping bag for school naps or&amp;nbsp;overnight stays at grandma&#39;s house, the ultra-fashionable and totally adorable &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #a64d79;&quot;&gt;kid and toddler sleeping bags&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; at &lt;a href=&quot;http://briannasbeddingandbeyond.com/index.php?cPath=87&quot;&gt;Brianna&#39;s Bedding and Beyond&lt;/a&gt; are just what you and your kiddie are looking for.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let&#39;s dispense with the details:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Exterior cotton/polyester&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Interior 100% Cotton Flannel&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Travel Pillow included&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Packaged in zippered vinyl bag&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Elastic straps to keep rolled up&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Machine washable, gentle cycle, cold water&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Opens flat to top a bed&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Not intended for outdoor use&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Conforms to U.S. flammability test requirements for sleeping bags as set forth in CPAI-75&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;The bags come in two sizes: 30&quot; x 66&quot; for children up to 5&#39; 3&quot; and 20&quot; x 50&quot; for toddlers.

Please visit these blogs if you have the chance to do so.&amp;nbsp;They&#39;re each special for different reasons (hence, versatile), but every one of them is worth the read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lifewithoutpink.com/&quot;&gt;Life Without Pink&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(A mom blogging about a life eerily similar to mine...a life without pink!)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://todayscliche.com/&quot;&gt;Today&#39;s Cliche&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Parenting from both a mom&#39;s and dad&#39;s perspective)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.farberfamilyadventures.com/&quot;&gt;Farber Family Adventures&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(A blog written by a sweet mom of an even sweeter little girl who just happens to design fabulous blogs like mine!)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://mamionamcmission.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;Mami On A McMission&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(A blog covering one grateful mom&#39;s mission to show kindness to the children of&amp;nbsp;Ronald McDonald house.

I&#39;m off to do that now. Thanks again, Elaine, for thinking of The Kiddie Fashionista. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i836.photobucket.com/albums/zz288/jmgersh/DaniaSig.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;/center&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/3450709134479204944'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/3450709134479204944'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thekiddiefashionista.com/2010/05/kiddie-fashionista-received-its-very.html' title='The Versatile Blogger Award'/><author><name>Dania</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03582268463630003731</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S__R5PPCkDI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/nHXKcKYRCYc/S220/20100528_275+-+Copy.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S_CwMGs6SCI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/v5_SRDPLC0E/s72-c/versatile-bloggeraward.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856153838275232147.post-5533104398740365337</id><published>2010-05-16T12:00:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2010-06-08T20:28:19.639-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="cool product picks"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pediped"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="shoes"/><title type='text'>Pediped Portia Gladiator Sandals</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pediped.com/Product/CategoryInfo.aspx?cid=66&amp;sc&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S-8cV2x02fI/AAAAAAAAAZA/V6E2TvREpOM/s320/pediped+portia+gladiator+sandals.png&quot; wt=&quot;true&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Most moms have heard of our bought a pair of soft-soled shoes for their little tot from &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #073763;&quot;&gt;Pediped&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. I think we can all agree that they make the most adorable, comfortable and flexible shoes around. When your baby transitions into the toddler phase, a good pair of starter shoes is a must. But even I was surprised by just how chic the brand&#39;s latest &quot;couture&quot; shoe collection is. From cute mary-janes to trendy gladiator sandals, the new &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pediped.com/Product/CategoryInfo.aspx?cid=66&amp;amp;sc&quot;&gt;Pediped couture collection&lt;/a&gt; has what every little fashionista should have on her pretty feet.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;My personal favorite are &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pediped.com/Product/ProductInfo.aspx?id=375&amp;amp;cid=66&quot;&gt;the &#39;portia&#39; roman gladiator-style sandals in pink mock-croc leather&lt;/a&gt;. The stylish pair feature cushioned soles and Velcro fastening, and the embossed&amp;nbsp;leather exterior has a slight sheen to it so your cutie will stand out among the rest.&amp;nbsp;The couture collection is priced at &lt;strong&gt;$42&lt;/strong&gt;(not bad!) - about $10-15 more than Pediped&#39;s original designs. The collection is only available for girls 0-24 months, but let&#39;s keep our fingers crossed that the overwhelming success of this collection will nudge the folks at Pediped to expand the collection to include more styles, sizes and, perhaps, even a few boy designs. C&#39;mon, Pediped, throw mama a bone over here.

Uh, seriously? Why? Doesn&#39;t he understand that I&#39;m over-weight, can&#39;t swim and have suffered one too many sunburns to even attempt such a thing? No excuses, he says. The kids need to enjoy our South Florida beaches, and I need to suck it up. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;First on my &quot;get ready for summer&quot; agenda is finding a comfortable yet stylish swimsuit. I may feel like a beached whale, but I don&#39;t have to look like one. So I racked my brain trying to think of a place I could find a suit that would be practical and stylish, and that little light bulb inside my head turned on when I thought of Land&#39;s End. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;The mega-popular catalog company has supplied our home with tons of affordable and comfortable clothing over the years. Then they made their way into stores like Sears (only three blocks away from my home!), and I was in heaven. Need a simple tank for the summer? Land&#39;s End has those in every color imaginable. Want a canvas bag to haul your goodies to the park or the beach? Land&#39;s End has those too. I actually gave those out as gifts to all my bridal attendants. But I digress. The point here is to find a chic yet functional swimsuit for Mama Padron (moi ;-). I found exactly what I needed with just a few clicks of the mouse (as I knew I would).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S-1hiKljNUI/AAAAAAAAAYo/ZlKFSskNybE/s1600/Land%27s+End+swimsuit+and+cover+up+ensemble.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; src=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S-1hiKljNUI/AAAAAAAAAYo/ZlKFSskNybE/s400/Land%27s+End+swimsuit+and+cover+up+ensemble.png&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; wt=&quot;true&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I chose this &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.landsend.com/pp/StylePage-386974_A6.html?CM_MERCH=REC-_-FPPP-_-GGT-_-2-_-386974-_-287928&quot;&gt;solid empire-waist tankini top&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;($48.50) and matching mini skirt bottom. The top&#39;s gathered bodice, empire waist and soft cup bra offer support and comfort while the stretch fabric gives the assurance of much-needed concealment. The matching &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.landsend.com/pp/StylePage-287928_A6.html?CM_MERCH=REC-_-FPPP-_-GGT-_-2-_-287928-_-386974&quot;&gt;mini bottom&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;($56.50) comes with an attached panty so there are no worries of a &quot;flashing&quot; incident. Of course, I would never go to the beach without a cover up! This &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.landsend.com/pp/CottonJerseyLongSleeveZipfrontHoodedCoveru~180882_59.html?bcc=y&amp;amp;action=order_more&amp;amp;sku_0=::BEP&amp;amp;CM_MERCH=IDX_00002__0000000134&amp;amp;origin=index&quot;&gt;cotton jersey hooded dress&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;($29.50) is the perfect addition to finish off the look. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;While all these pieces are available in a myriad of colors, I went with &lt;em&gt;black&lt;/em&gt; for the swimsuit and &lt;em&gt;navy&lt;/em&gt; for the cover-up. These choices come with built in longevity as the basic nature of their colors and designs will allow me to use them for many summers to come. All the pieces I selected also come in regular sizes so there&#39;s a suit at Land&#39;s End for women of all shapes and sizes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Are you dying to shop for a swimsuit, cover up or any other summer staple from Land&#39;s End?

The results are tees that look chic and feel even better. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.piperandolive.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #073763;&quot;&gt;Piper + Olive&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, the brain child of Caren Goldstein and Barbara Overholser, is a great place to stock up on cute and comfortable t-shirts. Moms and their kids can even dress in matching tees if they so desire (notice I&#39;m on a major &quot;dressing alike&quot; trip lately!). My personal favorites are the &quot;gato&quot; graphic print tees. They&#39;re available in different colors and sleeve lengths (even a hoodie for mom). The adult tee is &lt;strong&gt;$36&lt;/strong&gt; and the kid and baby tees are &lt;strong&gt;$26&lt;/strong&gt;. There are several different prints to choose from including more feminine choices if you happen to have princesses instead of princes at home. Be sure to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.piperandolive.com/&quot;&gt;browse their selection&lt;/a&gt; and grab a few for yourself and the kids. For most busy moms, a t-shirt is their best friend so make sure these staples are stylish and chic.

We&#39;ve assembled 10 tips to help our readers remain chic and fashionable on a budget. We promise they&#39;ll do both with little effort on your part.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shop a designer brand&#39;s moderately priced sister/brother label&lt;/strong&gt; (think of MICHAEL Michael Kors handbags ($200-$600) as opposed to his namesake label&#39;s more expensive ($1000 and up) counterparts).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spend less on clothing and more on accessories.&lt;/strong&gt; A simple white tank and jeans can be dressed up with a necklace, heels&amp;nbsp;or a&amp;nbsp;hot bag.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shop Target or Walmart for things like bras, underwear and socks&lt;/strong&gt;. Unless you&#39;re a Victoria&#39;s Secret model and plan to prance around town in your skivvies, don&#39;t over-spend on clothing items only you and your significant other will see.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shop vintage&lt;/strong&gt;. Ransack your local vintage clothing stores for one-of-a-kind pieces to spruce up your wardrobe for less.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Forget expensive jeans&lt;/strong&gt;. A $30 pair from Old Navy will do the job just as well as a designer pair.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shop e-Bay&lt;/strong&gt;. This is a great way to acquire a designer piece you would normally not be able to afford. Just make certain the seller you&#39;re dealing with is reputable and only deals in authentic items.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SALES!!! SALES!!! SALES!!!&lt;/strong&gt; Goes without saying that buying items toward the end of season is a smart way to spend and invest your money. If you live up north, replenish your winter wardrobe in early spring. Not only will you save big, but you&#39;ll be ready for that first frosty morning come next fall.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Beg, borrow, but don&#39;t steal!&lt;/strong&gt; Are you pregnant? Borrow your sister&#39;s or BFF&#39;s maternity clothes. Keep things simple and comfortable during those long 9 months, but don&#39;t break the bank while doing it.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Accumulate gift cards from b-days and the holidays to help off set the cost of a big ticket item&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;Using a $20 gift card to buy something you don&#39;t need or want for the sake of spending the card is not very smart, but always very tempting.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;And, finally, hit those outlet malls with a vengeance!&lt;/strong&gt; An expensive designer bag or shoes&amp;nbsp;under $100 is too good a deal to pass up. Off Saks 5th Ave, Neiman Marcus Last Call and Nordstrom Rack are a budget-conscious fashionista&#39;s best friend.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;Don&#39;t think these tips are solely for mommies and daddies. Tweak them to suit your kiddie shopping needs as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Want more tips on how to be fashionable on a budget?

I told him that one would suffice so he wisely thought things through and agreed with me. He opted for the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #073763;&quot;&gt;octopus counting puzzle&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; (mainly because he&#39;s playing the wise octopus for his pre-school&#39;s adaption of The Rainbow Fish), and his choice was perfect. Not only can he practice counting as well as his&amp;nbsp;enviable puzzle-assembling skills, but I can rest easy that he and my 23 month old aren&#39;t playing with a &amp;nbsp;plastic, chemical-laced&amp;nbsp;piece of trash&amp;nbsp;that can (and will) make its way into their mouths. Aside from being eco-friendly,&amp;nbsp;these puzzles are&amp;nbsp;sturdy and can be passed down to younger siblings or traded with friends and family. Plus who can argue with having such a cute and colorful octopus in their house? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Available for &lt;strong&gt;$18.95&lt;/strong&gt; via &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ecotoytown.com/wooden/learning.html&quot;&gt;ecotoytown.com&lt;/a&gt;. There are several other animals available including a beautiful butterfly and snazzy snail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;***Only appropriate for children 3+. Some puzzle pieces are small and could be a choking hazard.***&lt;/em&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/7977340355513630182'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/7977340355513630182'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thekiddiefashionista.com/2010/05/eco-friendly-wood-animal-shaped.html' title='Eco-friendly Wood Animal-shaped Learning Puzzles'/><author><name>Dania</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03582268463630003731</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S__R5PPCkDI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/nHXKcKYRCYc/S220/20100528_275+-+Copy.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S-nnuimRCLI/AAAAAAAAAXk/djN4brvFcig/s72-c/Eco-friendly+wooden+learning+puzzles.png" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856153838275232147.post-4084083590057179219</id><published>2010-05-10T10:44:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2010-06-08T20:34:26.966-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="baby fashions"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="baby shower gift ideas"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Georgie Tees"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="gift ideas"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="onesies"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="t-shirts"/><title type='text'>Baby Shower Gift Idea: Georgie Tees &quot;The Apple Doesn&#39;t Fall Far...From the Tree&quot; Mom &amp; Child Set</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S-gbxY6r-QI/AAAAAAAAAXU/esBpCUOy2ik/s1600/appletree_500%5B1%5D.gif&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S-gbxY6r-QI/AAAAAAAAAXU/esBpCUOy2ik/s400/appletree_500%5B1%5D.gif&quot; tt=&quot;true&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;This cheeky mom and child t-shirt/onesie set makes for one adorable baby shower gift.

At least you or someone you know can enjoy sporting&amp;nbsp;these silky soft 100% cotton tees. Mommy&#39;s shirt is &#39;one size fits all&#39; and features a black tree with a single red apple and the phrase &quot;the apple doesn&#39;t fall far...&quot; while the matching onesie has a large black/red apple with the finishing phrase &quot;from the tree&quot;. The baby onesie is available in 3-6 months or 6-12 months. This is a must for any new mom so buy it for her and her baby.

Your little girl can wear it with a cute pair of kitten heels while you lunch, then slap on some Keds to play at the park. It&#39;s a versatile look that can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. It&#39;s a fashion lesson women learn early on when buying pieces for their own wardrobe. What better way to&amp;nbsp;acquaint&amp;nbsp;young ladies with the rules of fashion than by showing them how it&#39;s done right from the get go. With a chic, retro-inspired knit tank jumper, it&#39;s easy as pie.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Available in sizes 8 and 10&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Color: lipstick pink&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rayon/spandex blend&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Details - keyhole back, side pockets, smocked hem&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;$85 - purchase via &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mysaurette.net/product.aspx?pid=649&quot;&gt;mysaurette&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/3020328563046129074'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8856153838275232147/posts/default/3020328563046129074'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thekiddiefashionista.com/2010/05/is-your-budding-fashionista-to-try-out.html' title='Saurette Knit Tank Jumper'/><author><name>Dania</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03582268463630003731</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S__R5PPCkDI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/nHXKcKYRCYc/S220/20100528_275+-+Copy.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/S9zYW2pdg4I/AAAAAAAAATk/z_4zN4PvXo0/s72-c/saurette%2520lipstick%2520jumper%5B2%5D.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856153838275232147.post-9217698536220149929</id><published>2009-11-09T15:42:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2010-06-08T20:30:26.568-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="baby"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="baby fashions"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="cool product picks"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="footwear"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="socks"/><title type='text'>Trumpette Mary Jane &amp; Cowboy Baby Socks</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/Svh-QcVVf6I/AAAAAAAAATU/wMASh_Ux5NM/s1600-h/Trumpette+baby+socks.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; sr=&quot;true&quot; src=&quot;http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FhucrKg_Yyg/Svh-QcVVf6I/AAAAAAAAATU/wMASh_Ux5NM/s400/Trumpette+baby+socks.JPG&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are, without a doubt, the most adorable baby socks I&#39;ve ever come across.

My son had all white furniture in his, and it brightened up the room beautifully. While I&#39;m pleased with the quality of his changing table, this South Shore design is too darling and practical to overlook. The top is flanked by two security planks (very thoughtful) and three cubby holes provide easy access to all the diapering items one would need. Keep onesies and towels in the two drawers provided or use them to store extra diapers and supplies. The great thing about this design is the fact that it will easily convert to a practical storage unit once your baby becomes a toddler. The cubby holes will be the ideal place to store baskets filled with small toys and books. Plus, the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #6aa84f;&quot;&gt;South Shore Baby Changing Table&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is well priced at &lt;strong&gt;$199&lt;/strong&gt;.
