I Wish It Came In My Size

I lust for this Album di Famiglia baby coat every Winter. The wind and waterproof down jacket i just so toasty looking. And the colors are always so sophisticated. 176€

Baghere Long Woollen Cape

I know it is an odd time to add an 100% wool long, wool cape to a catalogue, but that is just what Little Fashion Gallery has done. I love the Anita cape from Baghere though. It's so pretty and old-fashioned. 146.32€

Boys Raincoats

It's finally raining here in Northern California (And the way the way wind is blowing I am expecting more trees in my neighborhood to fall.). So I dug my son's raincoat out of the back of the closet, only to find that this is the last season he probably will be able to wear it. I've gotten my money's worth, I bought it for my oldest over a dozen years ago...for less than $15. So now I've started looking for a new raincoat. I want something traditional and yellow, not so easy to find these days. Here is what I've come up with:

Petit Bateau Yellow Raincoat, £50.
The price seems very expensive, but if I get a size 12 he should be able to wear it for at least three or four years. He's barely growing.

Elka Rain Set, £28.
Pants and a jacket, for half the price.

Rain Set, £29.50.
The biggest size is an 8, so he would only be able to wear it for a season or two.


All the prices are in British Pounds because I couldn't find what I wanted here. But all three items are available for international shipping.

Obama Inauguration Coats Available

The J.Crew Crewcuts coats that Malia and Sasha Obama wore to their father's inauguration are available for preorder. Call 1.800.591.3745 for more information.

J.Crew Linen Sportcoat

Easter is coming and this sportcoat from J.Crew would look so cute on a little boy. On sale for $105.

Gobaby Teddytoes Swaddle Blanket

The Gobaby Teddytoes blanket is designed to be instead of a jacket. It stays on the baby as you move him from carseat, to stroller, to any other piece of equipment including carriers. That way you don't have to worry about readjusting harness straps or your baby kicking free of a pile of blankets.

The soft fleece blanket is trimmed in satin, and comes in a multitude of colors and prints. $40-$44.

EGG Shearling Hoodie and Hat

Bean New York has the EGG faux shearling hoodie ($76) and bear hat ($39.50) on sale. I like how the hoodie zips up the back to make dressing an uncooperative baby easier.
