Those who are mothers know how difficult it is to regain one’s pre-pregnancy body (some of us are still working on it!) The Anew Cinch is a tool that might help. It’s a wrap worn post-pregnancy to help tone abdominal muscles, flattening the stomach and helping moms get back to a healthy shape. The Anew Cinch is adjustable to your changing shape, using velcro and zippers. It also comes with an internal tape measure and a pouch to hold a hot or cold pack for aches and pains associated with post-pregnancy. The Anew Cinch is a favorite of celebrity moms like Angelina Jolie, Gwen Stefani, and Jennifer Garner, who used it to help them regain their pre-pregnancy bodies. You can purchase it for $86 at ByAnew.com.

I love the fun graphics of Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers line. These are a great compromise for my oldest daughter, who isn’t allowed to wear clothing with cartoon characters, but loves the look of graphics prints. Much of her back-to-school wardrobe this year is from this brand. Appropriate for babies and older girls alike, this mermaid top is characteristic of the line. This particular shirt is available in sizes from 3/6 months up to 12/18 months, and is on sale for $29.95 at tuttibella.com. Looking for a bargain? I’ve noticed that this brand is doing a brisk trade on ebay at the moment, too.

If you’re a fan of Gwen Stefani, as I am, but can’t afford her Harajuku Lovers clothing line for kids, sometimes you can catch a good sale. I found the 90% cotton/10% spandex Harajuku Lovers Baby 2fer layered tee (alternate side says Harajuku Lovers) for $16.99 at TuttiBella.com. Not bad at 51% off. I tried to access the matching pants for $19.99 at the bottom of the page but continuously was taken to the wrong page (I think it’s an old link.) It’s unfortunate because they were super cute and I’m not sure you can actually grab them up for your little one to go with the top. Only available in 6/9 Month sizes, this layered shirt is a designer shirt at not-so-designer prices.

Gwen Stefani’s little man has been spotted in cool shades and the Blue Bolt Cape. He’s just about the coolest little superhero I’ve laid eyes on. This cape is made from satin and recycled plastic bottles but surprisingly can be thrown in the wash machine with all the other kid gear. I found the Blue Bolt Cape at SillyDillyTotSpot.com for $49.95 but I assure you, I can do better. Having had a look around, I came upon the Little Capers Big Capes, which come with several designs printed on them at half the price. Your favorite superhero can save the world for just $23 at LittleCapers.com. However, if you’re still looking for a bargain, stop over at Etsy store superflykidz to find custom cape designs for prices as low as $8.

Here is a great deal on an item that would usually be a bit too expensive for most. This Harajuku Lovers Infant Girl’s Brit Gwen Bodysuit, by Gwen Stefani, is a long-sleeved snapsuit with a three button snap on the bottom. The old car and black and white checks on the front make it even seem appealing for a boy, in my opinion, although it is advertised as being for girls. The bodysuit is 100% cotton, making it even more comfortable for your little one.

It is available in sizes 3 months and 9 months only, and is on sale for $30.80 (reg. $44) with an additional 50% off at checkout - that means you’ll end up paying just $15 for a $44 bodysuit. What a great deal on designer baby clothes! You can view this steal at Bloomingdales.com.

If you want your little girl to be on the cutting edge of fashion without going off the deep end, check out this cute little tee shirt from Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers line.  This “Line Up” tee features an adorable collection of little girls dressed up for winter fun.  The back is decorated with a little white bunny tail.  I love the fact that this shirt manages to be hip and trendy without making the wearer look inappropriately older than she is.  You can pair it with just about anything for a sweet and playful look.  If you live in a colder climate like we do, you can easily layer it over a long-sleeved shirt or thermal.

This shirt is available in sizes from 2 up to 14 and would look equally cute on a toddler or a preteen. You can purchase one for $44 at RonRobinson.com.

Upscale blankets from Baby JaR have won favor with celebrity moms like Gwen Stefani, and it is easy to see why.  The Bubble Mint and Brown version shown here is definitely as eye-catching as it is luxurious.  It features a plush brown dot fabric (which is very popular at the moment) on one side, and a super-soft fuzzy cream fabric on the other.  A 2″ “bubble mint” satin trim provides an extra touch of contrast.

The blanket measures a generous 29″ x 35″, and is sure to be a favorite with any small child.  Moms will love the fact that it is machine washable.  You can purchase one for $68 at babyJaR.com.  You can add a monogram for $6 more.  This would make a great gift that is sure to be well-received and much-used.

Dwell Studio is well known for its upscale nursery furnishings, which are favorites with celebrity parents such as Gwen Stefani.  The company has recently come out with a line of diaper bags which brings its great sense of style to moms on the go.  The Dwell Studio Charlotte Diaper Tote is very hip, with a playful modern print that is colorful and cheery.  It is made from coated canvas for easy clean up, and sports a leather handle.

This is a very roomy bag, with six pockets on the inside to hold all of your diapering essentials.  Built in loops attach the bag to your stroller, making it even easier to get out and go with your baby.  The bag comes with a coordinating changing pad and retails for $176.  You can purchase one at duematernity.com.

Gwen Stefani and Tori Spelling are the proud owners of stylish slings from Oopa Baby.  The styling of the sling allows you to assert your fashion sense while keeping your child close at all times.  I love the ultra-modern black and white floral print. The sling is crafted from super-soft Italian pique fabric.  It closes with black rings, and features a zippered pocket that is perfect for keeping small items handy while you are out and about with your little one.

Each Oopa Baby sling is made by hand, so you are guaranteed a well-made and unique product.  The sling can accommodate a toddler up to 35 pounds, and can be easily machine-washed.  You can purchase one for $138 at duematernity.com.

This little hoodie from Gwen Stefani’s popular Harajuku Lovers line is edgy, but sweet at the same time.  Available in sizes from 2-12, the Ready Steady Hoody is made from 96% cotton and 4% Spandex.  It features an adorable print with cute little characters ant the words “ready steady love.”  Completely machine washable, it is casual and fun.

You can pair this jacket with just about anything in your child’s wardrobe, from jeans to a long and flowing skirt.  It can be worn as outerwear, or as an extra layer of warmth on a cold day.  Either way, everyone will know how hip your daughter is.  You can purchase one for $79.95 at tuttibella.com.

The Gucci Baby Carrier, a favorite of celebrity parents such as Gwen Stefani (above), is shaped to snugly fit baby’s body (up to 20lbs). It has adjustable shoulder straps and comes in the signatory beige/ebony GG fabric with dark brown or white leather trim.

This is a bit extravagant for the casual buyer, but if you have the means, you can purchase this item, priced at $850.00 at  Gucci.com.

I am quite taken with these funky little Geoambtric sneakers from Gwen Stefani’s L.A.M.B line. The styling is reminiscent of old school skater shoes, with a modern twist, and lamb logo adds a sweet touch. The Velcro closure is cleverly concealed, so the shoe is easy to get on and off, while retaining the look of a slip-on. I think these would look great with a funky t-shirt or hoodie and some cargo shorts. Any kid would look cool in a pair of these.

The Geoambtric sneakers are made of leather with a rubber sole. They are available in toddler sizes from 5-10. You can purchase a pair of these sneakers by LAMB for $60 at milkshop.com.

They have an adjustable waist band which is a godsend for anyone with scrawny children like my own. Your little guy will definitely stand out in these trendy jeans.
