Many mamas-to-be are confused about how to dress during that transitional period when they’re too small for maternity clothing but too big for their pre-pregnancy wardrobe. But being pregnant doesn’t mean that you have to trade in your designer jeans right away. One of my friends extended her jeans using black Goody Ouchless rubber bands, […]

Bring Back the Nap
The Julius & Friends Multi Dots Fundie Set is perfect for hot nights. The cheerful tank top also looks cute with shorts during the day. I like the soft combed cotton and bright colors. Plus, something about this set reminds me of the Underoos I used to love as a kid in the 1980s. $26 […]
Flirty Sundresses for Hot Mamas
Hot, humid summer weather makes me feel decidedly unglamorous. My hair frizzes and poufs out, and I always run into someone I know at the grocery store when I’m looking sweaty and tired from running errands in the heat. So I depend on cute sundresses when I need a little glamour in my life. Here […]
Spring Style Tip
If you’re like Mama-to-Be you probably gain a few pounds during the winter holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas) and slim down in the spring when it’s easier to exercise outdoors. Mama-to-Be adores the flirty sundresses she’s seeing in stores now, but it’s a sad but true fact that spring clothing doesn’t hide extra pudge as easily as […]
Diaper Bags: Hottie Tottie Fresh Picks
These are not your mama’s diaper bags, these are your Mamanista’s diaper bags! I LOVE my Asian-style brocade diaper bag, but spring is in the air and so are the sales. So, I am shopping around for another fun design. Before you became mommy, you did not have just one purse, did you? So why […]
Mama Luxe’s Favorite Diaper Bags
Silk brocade… luxurious, sleek, beautiful. These satin-smooth bags will take you through any season and any fabulous situation. Hmmm…Mama Luxe’s favorite diaper bags bear a striking resemblance to Mama-To-Be’s favorite briefcase. Currently I carry Baby Diva’s gear in the Kecci Shanghai II Mommy Diaper Bag in Chartreuse. I get at least one compliment a week […]
Mama-to-Be’s Favorite Briefcase
For years, I lugged around a boring black microfiber briefcase that looked exactly like every other briefcase. Functional and practical– my husband still owns one exactly like it. I wanted something more fashion forward, so I bought a leather briefcase from Coach for more than $300. It looked fabulous, but the thin leather straps dug […]
