We were pretty psyched to be on the shortlist for Vulture when they were seeking out baby stores who could speak to the best gear for a zombie apocalypse! Check out our super-stylist Amanda give advice on the Ergo (great for storing ammo) and the Diaper Dude bag (good for arrow toting) and the anti-microbial flat bear by Elks & Angels.
We just got in a load of KidRobot goodies and went straight to work building this tree of DIY Munnys and Labbits for the holiday! These are so fun to paint and make an awesome gift this holiday. Shop Kid Robot @Babesta!
I sat by my computer refreshing until registration opened for the Chuck Close artist talk at the MOMA, part of the family program. Close, who is behind the book Face Book, a popular one at Babesta, is a truely inspirational artist who creates large photo based portrait paintings. Diagnosed with facial blindness, he paints people's faces in an attempt to boost his recognition. Close was paralyzed due to a very rare spinal artery collapse, and creates his art using a brush holding device that is strapped to his forearm. To sign up for the artist talk, go to the MOMA's Family Programs.
Date: December 1
Time: 1-2pm; preregistration required
One of the first things on our holiay list was this Smash Scrapbook and Accessories by K and Company. This is very tween-teen friendly with cool top 10 lists, pockets, and more making for a super-dynamic and fun scrapbook. Here's a quick vid how it works. Make your memories customized!
We've noticed that something sweet is happening in the children's biz. And it comes as no surprise. Perhaps it's just that we're irresistibly attracted to anything gummi & adorable. And (recalling the dentist that was paying kids to take their Halloween candy back), we thought we'd pair 'em with some toothy fun. Check out the Gummi Bath Toys by Jellio; GummyLamps by Jailbreak Collective; Crowded Teeth wall art featuring a decidedly sweet tooth; Oeuf's
Wintertime calls for loads of plaids--somehow the print feels so warm and cosy. Here are some super-cool iterations of the check print that we have on our racks at Babesta. Loving the (clock wise) Baby Lady dresses and Goorin hats, Munster cardigan, A for Apple shorts and Mini Rodini Coat. Check them out here.
We are super psyched to get the new day-glo footmuffs from our friends at 7AM Enfant. Those ready to embrace this trend head-on, go for the solid pops of fluorescent green or pink-both head-turning & statement-making, but for a more subtle effect the beige with the neon accents is the way to go. On the black Cameleon 3 special edition - these footmuffs are perfection! Shop 7AM Enfant now.
