My latest discovery: Pura Vida NYC. A New York based designer who dabbles in color and bold, cool graphics. Her work is fashion forward and urban with kid's flair - with colors that pop on the playground. When you see all the pinks and oranges that celeb kids like Apple (Gwyneth Paltrow) and Leni (Heidi Klum) are wearing these days, you just know that this line will be a Hollywood darling in no time. www.babesta.com

I've been a Murakami fan from day one. Ever since I bought a piece of his -- a small statue--- from an "Antique Store" that had it on consignment. They scoffed at me as I bought it, not knowing what it was at the time.
Soonafter, Murakami had his big exhibit at Grand Central, and well, the rest is history. It's probably the wisest purchase I've made to date. Anyhoo, Kid Robot sells this nifty flower floor cushion that could add an artistic spark to a kid's crib. It's 3 feet in diameter and ever bit as cute as it looks.
Any Babesta would love this.
Murakami Floor Cushion. Kidrobot. $299.95.

There are so many cool options for walls these days. From
incrediblely modern wallpapers to vinyl wall art (see Wall Candy at Babesta).
Now there’s textured wall panels from
B+N. The Helvetica pattern that was mentioned on Apartment Therapy is perfect
for the toddler mathematician. The Carnaby pattern could look positively groovy
in matte white or silver. Another modern solution for jazzing up the baby’s
bedroom.

| Goo goo ga ga today, Gordon Gekko tomorrow.
It's the Wall Street equivalent of the growth chart. Every day, your baby gets exponentially more priceless...that is until the plunging drop with correlation to his transformation into the smart-mouthed teenage rebel that you were years ago. |

For the last 9 months, everyone told you that you were positively glowing.
The energy of that little high kicking tot inside your tummy was radiating
outward. Well now you’ve had him, you are sleeping a total of 3 hours a night
and your skin is looking a little worse for the wear. That’s where Bella Mama’s
Face and Body Spritzer steps in. Refreshing and hydrating, it’s Hollywood secret for looking fab against all odds. (Also
works on single, kid-free party gals, but you’re probably not reading this
blog). www.bellamama.com.

There is little more to say – this one speaks for itself.
Combatting the terrible problem of baby pattern baldness with some of the most
memorable dos: The Donald, The Bob (Marley), the Lil Kim and the Samuel L. They
say the ‘real’ e-commerce website (with new models, ordering info, etc) is
“coming soon”. We can’t wait.

Back to school is even more fun, if you can bring best friend Pooki along for the ride. The Pooki Pak backpack is the coolest back-to-preschool essential to carry your lunch, art projects and other must have-alongs.
Quirky and lovable, this is a Babesta fall favorite. Available at Babesta.com.
