Burberry Carolina Pebble-Grain Leather Tote

Can you practically feel the soft leather of this bag just by looking at it? Another stunning not-your-average-baby-bag from Burberry, the Carolina pebble-grain leather tote is made of soft calf leather with Burberry's signature goldtone hardware. The chunky buckle straps on the handle are fantastic and this huge, deep bag zips closed so you won't lose your 90 lbs of baby accessories while you are out shopping for more. For $1595.00, this beautiful bag can be found at Saks. 

Why I Love Monnalisa Gift Sets

Just look at the details on this, on every single piece! How could you choose a favorite part? I'm loving the bunny footies, the adorable bib that looks like a heart-shaped box of chocolates, the trim and logo around the collar, or how about how there is a bunny's booty on the chest?? I swear, every gift set Monnalisa designs leaves me smiling and shaking my head in adoration. I wish I had a special baby girl to give this to for Valentine's Day. Get yours for $132.00 at Children Salon.

Designer Bibs Are Expensive.

I mean, it's not like that is a big shock or anything. The idea of a designer bib still kind of boggles my mind because, well, babies destroy bibs. I keep picturing this beautifully constructed and detailed bib by Baby Dior smeared with baby food carrots. And peas. And sweet potatoes. Better have plenty of Oxy Clean on hand, because it would be a crime to keep this bib looking anything but pristine. Why? It costs $53.00. Find yours at Children Salon.

Janie and Jack My Girl Valentine Collection

Ugh... I have that post-holidays feeling. Sure, it's great to not have to worry about cards and baking and traveling and budgeting and the perfect gift and resolutions and cooking... Wait. Is it? I like all those things. It is definitely a bit overwhelming to be doing them all at once, but that's the spirit of the season! Then afterwards it's just... blah. What do we have to look forward to besides spring, which is four months away? Valentine's Day? I will not rant about Valentine's Day on January 2. It is far too early. So let's take a positive spin on it: the My Girl Valentine collection from Janie and Jack. I love how Janie and Jack always keep it so classic and beautiful with every single baby item they crank out. Each collection is more stunning than the last and it makes for great anticipation when one is about to come out. I am loving the pink, the frills, the subtle florals of this collection. A generous friend/family member could gift some lucky woman (and baby) with all three pieces. Find them all at janieandjack.com.

Juicy Couture Velour Baby Blanket

Dare I say this is the first Juicy Couture baby blanket I have blogged about? Upon doing some pinning I noticed that Juicy was missing from the list of luxurious baby blanket I have come across. Thanks to my friend Google, here is the first! Made from soft and cuddly velour (of course a Juicy baby blanket would be made of velour), I am loving the four-square design and the little bows that adorn the corners! For just $68.00, find this at Shop Sugar Babies.

New Dress and Bloomers Sets from Burberry Baby

I have a confession to make. Before I started getting really into the amazing world of high-end baby clothes, I was not a Burberry believer. I associated Burberry with all of the snobby girls at my college... all of whom seemed to have the exact same Burberry scarf. Not bags, not boots, not jackets. Just the nova check scarf. My theory? It is all they could afford and the most recognizably Burberry item. I almost let these girls ruin Burberry for me. Almost. Then I started noticing that every season, there are new variations on the famous Burberry check. Check patterns are their thing: their signature thing that they totally rock yet can still always put a new twist on. Now, I look forward to seeing these new variations. 

Hard to believe that spring styles are already emerging, but don't we feel that way every year? So let's dive into them with the newest dress and bloomers sets from Burberry baby. I must say, the white with purple and blue is so different from any of the other checks I have seen and I LOVE it. I picture someone with triplet girls, each one wearing one of these sets. Or one lucky girl who gets to own all three would also be nice. Which is your favorite? Find all of these (from top to bottom: $165.00, $175.00, $110.00) at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Armani Junior Knit and Denim Dress

Happy 2012 everyone! The year of a supposed doomsday! Who knows if it is actually true, but why not use this as a great excuse to adopt a "live every day like it's your last" attitude? Or one close to it works too. If you want to go skydiving, go. If you want to buy a new car but don't really need one, do it anyway. If you want to go to Hawaii, get a tattoo, call a long lost love, do it. What is the worst that can happen? We see 2013 and all of a sudden you say, "Wow, 2012 was the best year of my life. Why not live EVERY year like that??" Sorry, I have been reading a lot of inspirational books lately. Apparently they are working :)

So, maybe on your 2012 bucket list is to indulge your little one in some expensive and beautiful items that you wouldn't normally buy. Why not? It is fun. If you are new to the miniature versions of the big name designers, Armani Junior is a great place to start because the prices are actually quite reasonable. Take this sweet dress for example. It is one piece: a knit top with attached pleated denim skirt, and even some attached snap-closure bloomers underneath. The adorable striped sparkly bow has the Armani logo at the bottom, and the striped cap sleeves match. There are navy blue buttons down the back, another denim bow around the waist (like a faux belt), and adorable scoop pockets on the front. It is very apparent that a lot of thought and purpose went into this beautifully-crafted dress. All of this for $115.00! Let this be the start of your designer baby clothes obsession. Find it at Saks Fifth Avenue.
