Puddles Collection Dress Review

Now my daughter only gets studio portraits done once a year so I always like to find her a very special dress to be photographed in. I obviously had a very hard time selecting a dress from the vast array of dresses this boutique offers. Between the Candy, Mady, and Cassandra dresses, choosing just one would be very hard but after much deliberation I decided Lauren would look best on my girl.  The lovely Lauren dress we received is a very vibrant scarlet shade with beautiful attention to detail. The front waistband features a sheer ribbon embroidered with rosettes and dotted with beading. Puffed balloon sleeves and shirring on the bodice sweep into a poofy and dramatic skirt while underneath holds a built in crinoline and tulle for extra added oomph. We ordered my daughter's dress just a bit large, but I actually like the length and found it wasn't noticeable in photos since she was sitting anyway and the waist is adjustable with the tie of the ribbon in back for a perfect fit. Trust me, the portraits came out gorgeous and the photographer adored Rachel's angelic dress.


For moms of boys who usually have a harder time finding attractive formal wear, Puddles Collection has a great selection of dapper suits like the Charles in black pinstripe (rtv $55) and tuxedos as well as attractive shoes, ties, and accessories. Basically Puddles Collection has something for dress up for every boy and girl. Perfect fuss free shopping that will save time, money, and energy as well as provide your little prince or princess with excellent apparel.

YoBaby Yogurt Review *GIVEAWAY*

In our house, we try to feed our daughter as healthy as possible and one food she loves is YoBaby Yogurt. She's been eating it since she she started solids at 6 months old and still loves the creamy taste and silky texture of the original vanilla and banana variety best. She's three now and we continue to put a YoBaby Yogurt cup in her lunch box every day. We recently tried the drinkable version in peach and were really pleased with the flavor and of course the convenience and portability of this healthy snack. Now you may wonder, what make YoBaby Yogurt so good for babies and toddlers? Well, it's the only yogurt specifically created with baby in mind. Made with organic whole milk like pediatricians recommend for babies and children under two to encourage brain growth, YoBaby contains several ingredients essential to baby. Iron, live active cultures for immune system support, and Omega-3 fatty acids like DHA make this the perfect food to get little one on track for a lifetime of healthy food choices. Have you tried YoBaby yet?

Ruthless & Toothless: Miami Inkling

**CONTEST CLOSED**


So I'm wondering, do you really have to wait until you're 18 to get your first tattoo? I mean, how else can you express your coolness and individuality in the meantime? I'm thinking the expert tattoo artist from TLC Network's Miami Ink would probably know. Hmm... what would Yoji and Darren Brass do to hip their own kids up while waiting for them to come of age for their inaugural inking? Oh, I know! They'd create their very first line of baby, toddler, and kids clothing and they'd call it Ruthless & Toothless.

Five of the uber talents from the coolest show on television have banded together and began this rocking label which features their original art in cotton onesies, shirts, hoodies, and dresses all geared towards the ultra cool preschool set who want the tat look without the long term commitment. Prices aren't too bad either considering how hot their designs are and the fact that it's all made in the USA. Onesies start at $26 with hoodies a splurge at $40. The company is brand new too with plenty more in the works! I can't wait to see what they come up with next.

Want it? (Of course you do!) Win it!
One very cool kid will get to rock out in Ruthless & Toothless' hip Kahuna onesie.

Jack and Lily *GIVEAWAY*

**CONTEST CLOSED**


Featuring unique style and design, Jack and Lily's shoes encourage babies to discover, touch, and smile. Their Originals Collection made of the softest 'lamb touch' leather provide fun, dimensional appliques for little ones aged 0-4 to explore in. For those extra adventurous days, the Originals are completely machine washable.

I received My Shoes (Princess Crown) to review and opening the keepsake box they arrived in was shoe heaven for this fanatic. Available in boys and girls styles, these trendy shoes are some of the coolest ever for tiny toes. Each pair from this collection is available in sizes 0-24 months and features true soft-soles suitable for indoor/outdoor use, suede lining, and 100% cowhide leather. So not only are they entirely chic but their light, flexible soles make them comfortable on your little one's tootsies too. I'm going to love gifting these to a new mom I know... I only hope her husband will forgive me for passing on my addiction to her. With shoes this cute it's impossible not to become a collector. And lucky for you too, I share. One fortunate shoe lover will get their very own pair Jack and Lily's. Just don't say I didn't warn you.

The Details: One lucky shoelover will receive their own pair of Jack and Lily from either the Originals or My Shoes collection. The Rules: Visit Jack and Lily and let me know which shoes are perfect for your little one.
