I live vicariously through all my clients that tell me they were on the blog and were inspired to go to sites that were mentioned on the blog.  Well well well, I hit a motherload tonite.  In some downtime (yes, I do realize it&#8217;s 1 a.m.) between putting orders in and answering emails I thought to go virtual shopping.  Well, my dear blog readers, I cannot wait to show the treasure trove I found at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.childofeve.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">child of eve<\/a> and at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pettiskirtplace.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pettiskirt place<\/a>.  Fun fun fun!<\/p>\n<p>First, look at this posh diaper bag.  Seriously.  I was so obsessed 7+ years ago when I was on the quest to find a diaper bag that wasn&#8217;t so&#8230;well&#8230;diaper baggish.  My friends thought I was nuts.  Well guess what old friends, I knew that a trend was on its&#8217; way, designer diaper bags are here to stay and darn it, I totally should&#8217;ve been designing them all along (not that I have a lick of design sense, but I do know hand bags and luxury bag items so&#8230;well&#8230;how hard could it be, right?).  Regardless of trends, look at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.childofeve.com\/diaperbags.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">these posh posh diaper bags<\/a>.  These are extreme, faux fur, rhinestones, bling bling bling&#8230;and you know what?  They appeal to me.  For some reason I&#8217;m loving the black on with the white ribboned polka dotted bow (below):<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/us.st11.yimg.com\/us.st.yimg.com\/I\/yhst-23017565438375_1966_11951820\" title=\"coveted posh diaper bag\" alt=\"coveted posh diaper bag\" align=\"middle\" height=\"229\" width=\"177\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">I mean, c&#8217;mon, how could you not love the old lady sort of vintage sensibility there?  It looks roomy and it has pink and black on it!  What&#8217;s not to love?<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">So while we&#8217;re there, let&#8217;s look at clothes (because I could spend all day waxing on about accessories!)&#8230;I am a huge fan of textures, layers and dressing up!  I especially love pink and brown together, it&#8217;s sort of a sickness I suppose.  Look at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.childofeve.com\/halabaloo.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">halabaloo<\/a> line.  I always wondered why the cute clothes stop at size 6, seriously&#8230;it&#8217;s hoochie mama clothing after 6x, so unfair.  Especially when I think my 7 year old (who is so tall is fitting into 8\/10 these days) would look gorgeous in:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/us.st11.yimg.com\/us.st.yimg.com\/I\/yhst-23017565438375_1970_253342\" align=\"middle\" height=\"374\" width=\"163\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">or<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/us.st11.yimg.com\/us.st.yimg.com\/I\/yhst-23017565438375_1970_231173\" align=\"middle\" height=\"488\" width=\"176\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Pink &amp; brown, yes, pink &amp; brown.  Love it.  Might I say, once again, it&#8217;s so unfair that a tall 7 year old is destined for the 7-14 section of Bratz inspired <strike>garbage<\/strike> clothing.  At least the trend is more sort of loose, hippy chick Joss Stone before she became a glamazon vs. midriff baring Britney circa 2004.  Thankfully.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">If cashflow were not an object I could see going crazy with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.childofeve.com\/jottum.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">jottum&#8217;s inspired line<\/a>.  I mean, how close can you get to Vivienne W. without actually going all out crazy being her? These feel so pure and beautiful and Victorian to me.  I also love the colors in the upper half of the jottum link, however the white and rhinestone lower half of the page has me salivating.  Where is my lottery money?<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/us.st11.yimg.com\/us.st.yimg.com\/I\/yhst-23017565438375_1966_520145\" height=\"249\" width=\"305\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Ok, enough torture, check out the Halloween Tutus going on at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pettiskirtplace.com\/Tutus.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Pettiskirt Palace<\/a>.
