If you plan to take your baby out and about in a stroller, you will want to invest in a good bunting or stroller bag (or maybe several). This Circus Print Stroller Bag is a very cute option. Designed in Sweden by Plastisock, it is made from 100% cotton, and designed to fit infants from 0-6 months. It features warm, quilted fabric and a hood to keep little ones toasty. The zipper zips all the way down the front and part way up the bag, so you can free your baby’s legs to buckle him into a stroller or carseat. The brown circus-themed print adds an air of retro charm.
You can purchase one of these cozy bags for $90 at ittikid.com.

As the parent of two (soon to be three) winter babies, I have always been a big fan of buntings. Even during cold weather, I don’t want to stay inside all day, and my children have always seemed to enjoy getting outside for walks in the stroller, even when they were quite small. Buntings are a great way to keep a little one warm–they go on easily, are soft like a blanket, and you don’t have to worry about blankets dragging under stroller wheels or getting accidentally left behind at the park.
This classically-styled bunting from Dior is a luxury that any baby will enjoy. Made from 100% cotton, it closes at the shoulders, and a side zipper for easy changes. It features an embroidered medallion on the ivory bodice for a classic, feminine look. The pink bottom is closed to keep your baby extra warm. This bunting is also machine washable, so cleaning up spit-up and diaper leaks is no big deal.
At $235, this product is definitely a splurge. You can purchase one at saksfifthavenue.com. The matching bib shown in the picture retails for $49.

Lots of people I know seem to be planning pirate-themed costumes for their families this Halloween. I just came across this infant costume and had to smile. Unfortunately, none of my pirate-loving friends have infants, or this would be perfect.
The Ship Ahoy Bunting will have your little one looking like a full-fledged pirate in no time. The set features a suede-cloth flannel bunting, designed to look like pirate garb, and a pirate hat. It sure is cute. This would be cute as part of a family pirate ensemble, or on its own.
You can purchase one on sale for $31.53 at costumesontheweb.com.

One of my favorite products for my younger daughter was a gorgeous cable knit bunting from Ralph Lauren. Ours is very similar to this one, although we didn’t opt for the added luxury of cashmere. The great thing about a bunting is that it is cozy and snug in cool weather. The downsides are that they cannot be used in a car seat or most strollers/baby carriers. I enjoyed using our with either the bassinet attachment for our stroller or a sling.
The Ralph Lauren Cashmere Cable Bunting is absolutely top of the line. Made from fine cashmere, it is as soft as it is adorable. The look is simple and classic, but your baby will be absolutely pampered. The hood adds and extra layer of comfort and warmth for little heads. The bunting is available in blue, pink, or cream. You can purchase one on sale for $187.50 at RalphLauren.com.

These dolls are a flashback from my youth when I had a bunting doll of my very own. He was not nearly this nice, though! Made by the German company Nanchen, these bunting dolls are made from 100% organic cotton, so they are soft and cuddly, and also eco-friendly. I love the sweet little sleeping faces on these dolls.
This would definitely be a great first birthday gift, and would likely be cherished for years afterward. The doll is available in either pastel pink or pastel green, and is 10” tall. You can purchase one for $27.95 from threesisterstoys.com.
