Stonz creates babies and kids’ booties from Vancouver, Canada. Founder Lisa is a moms who was looking for something to keep her baby’s feet cozy and warm. Stonz fleece booties are appropriate for the cold weather, but also great for year-round wear. Celebrity children Max Sutter (of parents Trista and Ryan Sutter) was recently spotted in Stonz booties, as was Halle Berry’s daughter, Nahla. With a wide variety of colors and styles, everyone can find one to fit the needs of their child. You can view the available choices at StonzWear.com, where booties start at $46.95 and are available to fit sizes up to 3 years old.

I love these custom made birth announcements by Nesting Shoppe. All are made in the USA and printed on recycled paper. This one, “Baby Avery,” is available in a 5″ x 7″ size, and starts at $58 per set of 25. Once you send your photo to be used in the birth announcement, a digital proof is emailed to you for approval upon payment. High resolution photos are also accepted. Nesting Shoppe’s customers include parents Charlie & Brooke Sheen, Trista & Ryan Sutter, and Scott & Kelley Wolf. To view the array of designs available, visit NestingShoppe.com.

I was recently introduced to the fun maternity shirts available from Dreem Maternity, and only have great things to say about them.  The line was started by Brooke Wall, a mother who wanted to create clothes that flatter pregnant women and moms.  The result is a collection that feels great and fits beautifully, accentuating your growing belly rather than tenting it in excess fabric. This young company already counts celebrity mommies such as The Bachelorette’s Trista Sutter among its fans.

I have unfortunately hit the stretch of my pregnancy where I feel gigantic and less than hip.  It is so nice to have something young, fun, and flattering to wear.  Best of all, Dreem’s shirts are exceedingly soft and comfortable with the perfect amount of stretch.  No matter what your personal sense of style, there is something here for you–from the edgy, to the more traditional.  You choose the print, the color, and whether you want long sleeve, short sleeve, tank, or thermal.  The shirts are available in a number of sizes too, from XS/S to 2XL.  Shirts range in price from $37 for a tee or tank to $45 for a long sleeved tee or thermal.  Upscale Baby readers will receive a 20% discount with the promo code UPSB20.  You can purchase your favorite(s) at shopdreem.com.

After you have your baby, check out the company’s fun line of “Hot Mama” shirts which let everyone you are proud to be a hip mom, and be a part of Dreem’s quest to “Redefine June Cleaver!”
