Blogger Lauren Nelson shares her Layette Favorites for baby
 

I can’t believe we’re so close to Baby C’s arrival! While we’ve been patiently waiting these past few weeks, I’ve been packing and repacking our hospital bags and of course shopping for the cutest layette pieces. Luckily a lot of my close friends have pointed me in the right direction on where to shop for newborn clothes. So today I’m rounding up my favorites that I’ve bought for Baby C and would love to hear if you have any newborn must-haves!

Layette Favorites

  • Ralph Lauren Cashmere Baby Blanket – This baby blanket was at the top of my list when we registered! It’s the perfect keepsake as you can get the baby’s initials monogramed and it also pairs perfectly with the cutest RL cashmere hat and booties.
  • Estelle Milano or any custom name boudoir baby pillow – I love how a custom boudoir pillow with the baby’s name or initials can enhance any little crib or bassinet.
  • G.H.Hurt & Son Shawl – A royal family favorite! Shop classic baby shawls at great prices for special occasions.
  • Feltman Brothers Gowns – I have a feeling Feltman Brothers is going to continue to be one of my go-to brands for baby C! I bought two little gowns to start that she’ll wear during our newborn photo shoot in a few weeks!
  • Pixie and Lily, Kissy Kissy, Little English and Nella Pima are all new-to-me brands I discovered and you can easily shop in one place on Jo Jo Mommy, a children’s clothing store based in Dallas, Texas. I first discovered Jo Jo Mommy when a few of my favorite bloggers linked to the store on Instagram. I love their curated selection and shipping is quick to New York!

Spring Wardrobe Staples
0

Spring has finally sprung!

With warmer temps just around the corner here in New York, I pretty much only have spring dresses, sweaters and tops on my mind. Also – is anyone else headed back into the office? After 2+ years working remote, I am definitely in need of a completely new work wardrobe!

In case you haven’t taken a peek yet, Shopbop dropped a TON of new arrivals that could work well for any upcoming spring party, event or weekend brunch – Zimmermann, Caroline Constas, La Double J and Sea are just a few of my favorite brands that I’ll be shopping for some upcoming spring parties we currently have on our calendar.

On a separate note, I am absolutely LOVING all the raffia shoes on Shopbop right now including these loafers from Carrie Forbes (pssst.. you can also shop a more affordable version from Steve Madden!). AND these chunky block heels from Loeffler Randall are also on my wishlist.

What will you be shopping for this spring? Xx. Lauren

Shopbop February Finds
0

This past weekend I was on a girls trip in Florida and we were all talking about our shared love for Shopbop.

I know I’ve mentioned here before but Shopbop just makes shopping & returning so easy it’s really hard to shop anywhere else. And with spring right around the corner, I’ve been on the hunt for colorful layers that can easily help my wardrobe transition over the next few weeks.

Tory Sport & her fleece’s are a new found love. I’ve seen a few other bloggers rocking her fleeces and I finally pulled the trigger – happy to report that I’m now on board & will definitely be adding more to my closet!

If you’re looking for new denim this spring, Shopbop just launched new arrivals from Mother, DL1961 and Agolde.

If you’re shopping for a warm weather getaway, I’ve been loving everything Misa and AMUR. I haven’t shopped either brand yet but they are both high on my list for my next beach vacation.

A Few Designers I’m Loving

Resort-Dresses-Spring-Dresses-Vacataion-Dresses

 

Not sure if you’re noticing a trend around here but I’ve really only been in the mood to shop resort wear and resort dresses more specifically. Does anyone else feel the same?! We have a few more trips coming up this spring so I’ve been browsing Shopbop, Net-A-Porter and Matches Fashion for some easy, casual dresses.

There are so many new-to-me designers I’ve been loving including Borgo De Nor who certainly has some beautiful frocks if you’re looking to invest in a dress for an upcoming wedding or event! If you’re headed to the beach, I’ve been loving everything from D’Ascoli. I recently bought two dresses (this one and this one). Not only are they super comfortable but you can easily wear both out to dinner or lunch. Lisa Marie Fernandez is another designer I always check out before going on a warm-weather getaway.

Both Antik Batik and 9 Seed have some beautiful cover ups for the beach. I haven’t shopped Antik before but one of my favorite cover ups from 9Seed is this white dress.

Another new-to-me brand is Muzungu Sisters that you can shop on Matches – how beautiful is this blue embroidered silk dress?! The brand is all about handmade clothing and accessories working with artisans from all over the world. I also love this cotton dress and this linen maxi.
