Babesta Beat AW 2014

NICHE MARKET Nook sets the standard in cool, organic mattresses, so when we saw that they jazzed up feeding pillows (notoriously un-chic) we were over the moon. Dubbed the “Niche,” the feeding pillow is organic in and out and made in America. Breathable and comfy, it can also be used as a prop seat for a baby or a side sleeper for mom or dad. The cover is made of organic cotton and eucalyptus, while the core is fashioned from organic kapok. It fits the Babesta niche just right!

We are thrilled to introduce a whole line of cuteness with Blabla at Babesta. The range includes such goodies as travel blankets, eyelash print bedding, adorable knit pillows with blushing cheeks and mustaches and rattles twisted just-so into colorful pretzels. The company, started in 2001 by two friends who shared a passion for design, offers a range of goods crafted by Peruvian artisans (the same team, 10 years strong!), and supports fair trade and eco friendliness. The result hits a perfect note for a noteworthy nursery or uber-cute child’s room. BLABLA, BLABLA

GO WITH THE FLLO

Clek seats inevitably have unique names: no surprise these are unique seats! With the high popularity of the Foonf, the car seat masterminds at Clek decided to launch a new, more moderately priced (nearly $100 less), compact version of the super safe convertible car seat called Fllo. Like its big brother Foonf, Fllo features extended rear facing use (up to 50 lbs) and advanced side impact protection as well as energy absorbing crumple technology and an anti rebound bar. It’s approved for aircrafts as well! Go with the Fllo, indeed!
