Introducing Stella McCartney Kids and Baby!

Well, the much-anticipated Stella McCartney Kids and Baby clothing line is finally available online and in stores. Her designs for petite fashionistas reflect those of her grown-up clothing line in style and in her values: they are made from "organic and sustainable fabrics." (read that on people.com) So far the baby part of the collection only has a few items, but they are simple and adorable and so far, I like. This jumpsuit is a wool-cashmere blend with cute little front pocket and shoulder buttons, retailing for $88.00. Keep it coming, Stella!

Check out the curls on Marcia Cross's 3-year-old twin girls! They are getting so big.

Armani Junior Quilted Embroidered Shoes

I cannot quite put my finger on what these remind me of. Something with the pattern... I don't know. A quilt, of course, but something else maybe? In any case, I couldn't help but notice how the word 'Armani" is embroidered across the strap... gotta appreciate tasteful use of logo. These adorable $105.00 shoes are available at neimanmarcus.com.

Baby Einstein Deluxe Gift Basket!

Okay... I love making my own gift baskets, especially ones with a theme. Some pre-arranged gift baskets can be kind of lame... but not this one. When I worked at a preschool, I used to have a shift or two a week in the infant and toddler room. Baby Einstein was fairly new to the mainstream back then and I was instantly impressed and in love. So, this basket would be a fantastic baby shower gift. It includes: Touch and Discover Giant Board Book, Baby Einstein Keepsake Handprint Tin, Nature Discovery Gift Cards, Baby's First Moves DVD, Baby Einstein Animal Discovery Washmitt, Baby Einstein Link Set, Baby Einstein Plush Caterpillar Ring Rattle, Baby Newton Touch & Discover Pal, and Pinwheel Keepsake Bucket. Be the hit of the party and get this for $149.00 at thefrogandtheprincess.com.

More Pricetastic Luxuries from BonPoint

I've said it once and I'll say it again... BonPoint can do no wrong. This wool coat is no exception.... it is actually half yak/half laine. Laine is French for wool. No I did not google that (...............I googled that). It is double-breasted and has a little pompom that you can either throw over the back or let hang in the front. The cost of this veste francaise? A whopping $295.00.

Very Expensive Baby Sweats

Now I am all about sweats. I mean who isn't? Especially nowadays that they are socially acceptable to wear to the store, the bank... within reason of course. And some people pay insane amounts of money for their sweats. I could buy $7.00 purple sweatpants from Wal-Mart and sew "LOVE PINK" across the back... but that goes against the principle of the whole thing. So what about insanely expensive baby sweats? Examples are above: Roberto Cavalli Baby for $369.00 and below: Dior Baby for $349.00. So much money for a lot of cotton and polyester blend. I wish my name was so famous that I could sell a sweat suit for 8000 times its production cost, just because it's stamped with JennaLou. See these and more crazy luxuries at lavishkids.com.
