Did you know babies can wear perfume, too? Get your little niece or friend’s daughter this Burberry fragrance and they she’ll smell even sweeter than she already does.

For your favorite student. We love the classic cover, the 4-color sections, the nice space at the top for your name and date, and, of course, the graph paper.

Says designer Alessandra Lopez-Kiely of the inspiration behind the doll, "We kicked, whined and screamed [about] the crazy festivals/lectures/exhibits my mother dragged us to as kids. But now we’re blessed with a very rich appreciation for many different cultures." Her brother Kiko and her both love ninja movies (and even the really old Jackie Chan movies).
Fun fact about Alessandra? She was born the year of the monkey, which explains her love of the silly. She loves creating products that make people (especially adults) giggle!
Thanks, Julie, for the tip!

Karen from Plueys recommends pairing these adorable boots with dresses and leggings, or a sweater with jeans rolled up to just above the boots. Add a matching umbrella, and you’ll be set for the rainy season.
Fun Puddle Fact: There’s a science and an art to jumping in puddles - if you hit that puddle sweet spot in the middle of the puddle you get this ’swhiip-sploosh’ and optimum splash that you don’t get if you stomp in other parts of the puddle. You’ve got to practice though to get the right spot!

Jules Sherman created the adorable Yosi-Girls collection of barrettes out of her desire to make things that are whimsical, cheery, and fun in a world that challenges these lighter aspects of life.
Oh, and should the Yosi-Girls product line become successful, Jules would like to create a scholarship for underprivileged young women of exceptional creativity to pursue their own artistic dreams.
$9/pair at Smashing Darling.
P.S. Barrettes aren’t just for kids. Jules has also created a line of micro-injected PVC barrettes perfect for You!

Think barrettes, like Trix, are for kids? Think again. Jules Sherman is turning stereotypes about barrettes upside down with her new line of micro-injected PVC hair barrettes, which are flexible, comfortable to wear and water (and chlorine!) proof.
Sherman, an industrial designer by trade, is inspired by historical and modern design patterns and color combinations. Her carefully chosen patterns are fun enough for kids, yet grown-up enough for you.
$12 at Smashing Darling.

Cute…but not *too* cute baby tee made by Ann and Dabney of Mogo.
It’s 100% Cotton, Machine washable, and even more, the kimono-tie style allows this tee to grow along with the baby!
