tote rocks for summer!

baby star rock the totes are rockin cute and super practical ... "I was amazed at the quality of the bag. It is roomy and the fabric is wipe able so I don't have to worry about getting dirt on it or germs. It is also machine washable which is a huge bonus for moms! It also came with a wipe case and matching changing pad. The pad is really soft for a babies cute bottom! Even though my boys aren't babies any more I still need something big enough to carry sippy cups, snacks and all of my other stuff. I recently took my diaper bag to a playdate at the park and didn't need to worry about grass stains. I also had a sippy cup leak inside and just wiped it down! I love convenience."

baby star features art by jennifer mercede for fall 2009!

Baby Star ® is proud to announce the newest member to it’s family … artist Jennifer Mercede. Baby Star has signed and exclusive license with Jennifer Mercede to showcase her playful art on baby and toddler clothing for Fall 2009.

“We are beyond excited about this new partnership,” says Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Dana Bach Johnson. “Jennifer’s art is so unique, fresh and fun and we are honored to share it with the wee ones of the world.”

Jennifer received her BA in Painting from Western Washington University. Her abstract paintings consist of free flowing text and energetic doodling. They are created to be enjoyed and to positively motivate. Her artistic style is about letting go, taking chances and the belief that there are no mistakes. Jennifer is inspired by bright colors, old-school hip hop, graffiti, abstract expressionism, her inner spirituality and her many creative friends.

The G-Raffs characters that will be featured in the Fall Baby Star collection already have quite a following. They were first created for commissioned paintings after friends and fans saw a similar doodle drawn by the artist. When Kara, owner of the popular Portland, OR children’s store “Grasshopper” on Alberta Street, saw one of these paintings, she insisted they be displayed prominently in her store.  A whimsical energy and bright colors have made the G-Raffs an instant hit with all who see them. They have developed an international following of fans. That fan club is sure to grow when the new Baby Star Collection featuring the G-Raffs  hits the market.

“I am honored to be working with Baby Star to share the personality of the G-Raffs and other creatures on little clothes for little people,” said Jennifer.  “I am excited my art will bring playful, joyful smiles to kids throughout their day.”

father's day goodness

it is time to celebrate the daddys! we are big beach people and my husband is a surfer so we are headed to the beach. the boys and i love hitting the book store for gifts and found a great book for my surfer ... the california surf project from chronicle books. thinking the day will start with mondo pancake breakfast, then surf check, then surfing and then walk on beach. sand in the toes is a nice way to spend the day. enjoy!

FEED 2 Kenya bag = 2 Kenyan children fed in school for 1 year

"Handcrafted in Kenya by a coop of women and deaf Kenyans, each FEED 2 Kenya bag includes a $100 donation to the UN World Food Program's School Feeding operations in Kenya. Therefore, not only does this purchase support women and deaf Kenyan artisans, but the donation provides nutritious school meals to two Kenyan children for one year. Each bag is hand-beaded using traditional techniques and is made with natural burlap and the iconic Kenyan Masai tribal fabric; leather handles and shoulder strap make this the most luxurious FEED bag yet! The WFP school feeding program in Kenya is a needed support for a nation that is now dealing with a food crisis leaving 10 million Kenyans at risk of hunger."

The FEED 2 Kenya bag will be available in June for $195 exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman. To purchase, Contact Bergdorf Goodman: #212-753-7300 or personalshopping@bergdorfgoodman.com
