Mom2B Show

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

You all know that we love to stay on top of the latest and greatest baby trends – and what better place to do that than the Mom2B Trade Show that was here in Los Angeles last week.

We hit the ground running… right into our good friends at Baby Legs. Just when you think they couldn’t have gotten any more creative, they come up with fun, fabulous and yes, lightweight legs for your wee one – love ‘em!

Same goes for Kalencom. We’ve always been fans of this New Orleans based, diaper bag company. Can you say Fashionista? These stylish, roomy bags can not be missed. Check out the new Iridescent colors if you really want to turn heads on the playground.

We’re always amazed by the new products people come up with – especially when they’re inspired by becoming parents themselves. Hannah Westwood has just given us a new favorite shower gift – the maternity “due in” month necklace by GoBellyGo – we say go check it out!

Other honorable mentions go to the creative ladies at Bibez – a bib for those on the go, the ever adorable Mommy from Poppy Pants – a new, eco-friendly diaper, and one of our all time faves, Baby Bella Maya – who keeps coming up with great ideas, this time it was all about the shoes!

Good times, good show!
