Karismatic Chaos by Karismatic Couture ~ Delicious Style!

Karismatic Chaos by Karismatic Couture is unique, funky, yet classic and sweet and embodies both of their designers. Sugar meets spice, anyway you slice it, its delicious style.

Pettiskirts:
Unlike anything on the market currently, their pettis are fun, unique and wearable. They make their pettis to be hard and soft at the same time.  They range in linear yardage from 45 yards (newborn) to 200+ for a teen skirt and they never skimp on ruffles or layers they truly are good enough to eat.  Each design is inspired by a little girl and so each is branded with the name of a little girl. The bows are made of the highest quality satin and are removable for washing the petti. Also due to them being 3-4 layers they are not see through.

Designs:

The items in their line are not mass produced overseas. Each one is hand made by their skilled staff with impeccable attention to detail, in the USA under stringent quality control standards. Each one is as unique as the child that wears it, its almost couture.  Their couture quality standards make them stand out from the rest. Karismatic Couture understands that quality is paramount when it comes to your children, and quality is certainly what sets them apart.  Every component in their collection/line is certified to meet or exceed CSPIA standards for safety in children's products.

Kids are only kids for so long and Karismatic Couture creates style that is pretty and posh without being provocative or making a child look beyond their years. They believe that kids should be kids and look the part for as long as time allows. Whether she's a rock couture kind of girl or a primping princess she is sure to love Karismatic Chaos.

Nicole's Names ~ the finishing touch!

Nicole’s Names came about in mid 2006 when Nicole’s former roommate became pregnant and she wanted to get her something special and personal. She searched and searched and just couldn’t find anything until she came across some unfinished wooden letters and thought how perfect would it be if she matched them to the crib set. And now four years later that’s exactly what she does.

Nicole’s Names specializes in making wall letters to match your baby’s crib set and/or nursery. She offers a range of fonts, sizes and themes so you’re not limited to those solid color letters you find in stores. She can match all kinds of themes from the CoCaLo Sports Fan theme, which is currently one of her best sellers, to Jungle, Princess, Nautical and more! These are a great accent to any child’s room and can grow with your child. They are also great if you are in a place where you don’t have the freedom to paint and decorate the way you would like to.

Being a mom herself, Nicole understands the importance of making your baby’s nursery perfect so through her website you have the ability to contact her with your exact wants and needs. Before she completes any name she sends a preview picture to make sure it’s exactly as you want it so you’re never disappointed.

Nicole is constantly coming up with new designs and products, so check out what she has to offer at www.nicolesnames.com and add that finishing touch to your baby’s nursery.

Chat Chew and Chocolate ~ National Day of Play for Women!

Third Annual National Women’s Day of Play

on March 6th Invites 100,000 Superwomen

To Take a Guilt-Free Day Off

Chat Chew and Chocolate LLC is calling all Superwomen and Supermoms across the nation to enjoy a guilt-free day off and participate in the Women's National Day of Play on March 6th. This day was created to signify the importance of play and friendship in busy women’s lives. Women of all kinds, from overworked moms to non-stop business women are under more pressure than ever before and often they suffer from the “Superwoman Syndrome”. The Superwoman Syndrome is made up of a busy lifestyle that is missing three main elements; time to nurture/sustain positive friendships, scheduled “me time” away from roles and responsibilities and time for self-care (keeping yourself healthy mentally, spiritually and physically) . This March, we are encouraging women to take a day off from to-do lists and responsibilities to celebrate friendship, fun, and a little well-deserved “me time”.

Chat, Chew, and Chocolate (CCC), an award-winning inspiration and events company for women, is proud to host this exciting event for the third year in a row. One of the highlights this year is that thousands of women are signing their names online to total 100,000 participants for a guilt-free day off. Women are recognizing the importance of giving back to themselves so they can be refueled and stronger when they return to their roles and responsibilities! All women are encouraged to "add their name" to the online list of participants at http://www.cccnationaldayofplay.com/  . Through this event CCC hopes to help women all over the U.S. realize that it’s okay to schedule some fun- more than okay, it’s healthy!

About Chat Chew and Chocolate
This remarkable company was created by Dena Patton, an entrepreneur, life coach and speaker. Dena spent most of her twenties in NYC as an entrepreneur in marketing and publishing working 16+ hours a day. But it wasn't until after a minor stroke at age 26 that she realized the Superwoman lifestyle almost killed her. It was through her recovery she found a coach and later was inspired to train as a life and business coach. She then took her doctors advice to surround herself with positive women who were helpful, healthy, and inspiring. Five years later she created CCC as part recovery and part "inspirational girl time" and today ten years later she has one simple goal: make a difference for women, one woman at a time. Chat, Chew & Chocolate is all about providing fun, friendship and inspiration for busy Superwomen, because as Oprah says, "we put ourselves last on our own list."

Saige Nicole’s Has the Hottest Kid Trends of 2010

Orange County, California, 1/4/10- Press-and-parent-acclaimed online boutique Saige Nicole’s is at it again, bringing you the freshest and most anticipated new children’s fashions of the season. Owner Wendy Navarro is thrilled to introduce the trends of 2010, particularly those of five featured designers that are bringing whimsy and style to a new level in their 2010 creations.

From dazzling color to the exquisite attention to detail, these new trends are sure to make a splash with parents and kids alike. Hand appliqué, mix and match fabrics, and turn-over cuffs and collars are just a few of the chic styles Saige Nicole’s is revealing for the new year. These clothes are designed to look good without being too stuffy or inhibiting play, so your little ones can hit the playground or share a day out with mommy in style. Also, as with all Saige Nicole’s products, the 2010 trends will make kids feel special and parents proud, because every item is made with the highest quality materials by the most talented designers and artisans, including Alejandra Kearl, Captain Monkey Boy, Decaf Plush, Right Bank Babies and introducing Chichanella Bella.

Wondering what else this year will bring? Starting this spring, designers are mixing bold colors and patterns into the black and white craze from last year, a representation of human optimism for a better year. Also, designers are taking influences from Asia, the 60’s, and 70’s- a fun collaboration of Brady Bunch flair with Eastern beauty in shades that pop. Girls can expect both classic retro and kimono- inspired dresses and skirts, flowing and full of spring colors that will transition into ocean blue and crisp white linens and cottons this summer. Retro bathing suits for girls are an exciting addition the Saige Nicole’s collection, and tutus and ruffles are still a big hit. Boys’ fashions will include Daddy-inspired dress shirts and pants, as well as fun Anime-print t-shirts.

All these exciting designs and more can be found in Saige Nicole’s online Boutique, the perfect way to welcome in the new year- and decade with your children.

The Best Underwear for Little Girls ~ Girl Gotch!

If you would have told Rebecca Winterhalt a year ago that she would be designing and launching her own underwear line for little girls, she wouldn‘t have believed it, but here she is and so excited to share her products with us!

It all started in the summer of 2008. She was potty-training her daughter and was having a really hard time finding underwear that fit her. She seemed to always be pulling and adjusting and no matter what, they would “ride-up”. she tried everything, even buying size 5/6 panties for her (even though she was 2).

One afternoon, at her sister‘s house, her daughter and nephew were playing and were so wrapped up in their fun that her daughter had an accident. She didn‘t have a change of clothes, so I borrowed a pair of her nephew‘s gotch. I didn‘t think much of it at the time, but as the day went on she noticed that she wasn‘t complaining about her underwear hurting.  She also watched her jump and play around and they stayed in place. The gotch covered her whole bum, which was something her panties never managed to do.

That got her to thinking...why don‘t they make gotch for girls? And so, Girl Gotch was born!!

Go grab that best underwear for little girls - such great colors too!!  Check'em out at:  http://www.girlgotch.com/

Hot Off the Electronic Press: Style Café Moms Magazine Publishes Their First Issue

Today marks the embarkation of an exciting new journey into the world of press for Style Café Moms, a premier celebrity gifting and public relations firm for mommy-and-baby merchandise, founded by two former work-at-home moms.

For years, this successful company has been representing the best products and businesses in an array of categories, and is well known for the fabulous celebrity gift baskets they assemble and send to the hottest stars.

Now, Style Café Moms is thrilled to branch out into new territory: creating a magazine for moms that has it all. “We wanted more out of a magazine, more of what mom’s our age are looking for,” the company founders explain. Tired of the costly subscriptions to five or six publications to get all the information they wanted, Style Café Moms realized that with their expertise in trends and knowledge of the hottest new items for babies, kids, teens, and parents, they themselves could create such a magazine.

The idea quickly took off, and within the past few months it’s come to fruition. The November/December issue features the best holiday gift guide, green baby products, teen trends and more, and is now available for the first time, exclusively online atwww.stylecafemomsmagazine.com, in innovative, electronic-page-turning format. The March issue will debut in print at the Style Café Moms’ Posh Trends Suite marketing event hosted in New York in February. Style Café Moms proudly announces that it will feature Jennie Garth on the cover and in their Mom’s Who Do It All segment.

Check out this everything-you-need magazine for moms, and keep an eye out for future issues featuring popular celebrities, handy mom-knowledge, and the best items for your family.
