I bought this necklace for my daughter 2 years ago as a birthday gift and it’s still going strong! This cute piece of jewelry has freshwater pearls strung on strong, but thin cord and then closes with a sterling silver clasp. It measures 12 inches and would work for a newborn as well as a toddler. If you need a longer length, the seller can customize your order to your preference.
Although my daughter doesn’t wear her pearls everyday, they are ideal for special occasions, baptisms, weddings, Christenings or “princess dress-up”. The very fact that we still have this necklace intact and in “as new” condition after 2 years is proof enough on it’s strength.
There is nothing like relaxing poolside on a summer vacation. Add a water park and you have family fun at it’s finest! The Sandos Caracol Eco Resort & Spa in Riviera Maya, Mexico added a new addition to their resort – a brand new water park featuring water play areas and 17 water slides. The Aqua Park also has a pool bar along with the convenience of showers and bathrooms.
The wide variety of water play areas include “raining” palm trees, a large water bucket area and water spouts throughout the park. As a daily activity, all children that are enrolled in the complimentary Kids Club will enjoy a trip to the Aqua Park under the supervision of the Sandos Animation staff.
Children ages two – 12 can make new friends at the Kids Club through additional age-specific activities including: dance lessons, sandcastle building, Olympic games, competitions on the beach, water polo, water balloons, face painting, arts & crafts, sack races, movies, table tennis, bingo, football, a mini disco, fashion parade, piñata party games, board games, kayaking trips, water aerobics, archery, croquet, basketball, and water volleyball.
Supervised Kids Club activities are available from 10 am to 10 pm (for children ages two – 12 years old) and Teen activities from 10 am to 9 pm (for young adults ages 13 – 17).
The new park is open daily from 10 am – 8 pm, and is supervised by lifeguards.

Jeggings are the latest trend for women that has taken the fashion world by storm. What are Jeggings you ask? They are leggings made to look like jeans – seams, denim wash, fly and all. Gap calls them the “Legging Jean” and carries a variety of washes and styles in a whole range of sizes.
Little Maven has taken this popular trend and miniaturized it in infant and child sizes, as part of their Fall Metropolis collection. These adorable leggings would go amazingly with tunics, sweater dresses or longer tops.
First the denim diaper and now the “Jegging”. There is one thing for sure, denim is hot, hot, hot this season!
They’ve done it again! Little Maven has introduced 3 new collections as part of their Fall and Winter 2010 line up and they are all adorable! Metropolis takes peacock prints and colorblocks for the girls and puts the rocker into the boy with their Rock Star Fit Jeans and Beetle Car inspired sweaters and hoodies. Sticks and Stones really captures the essence of fall with browns, reds, golden yellows, marble prints and warm cardis.
I’m a real sucker for retro-inspired pieces for both women and children, so the Retro-Future line is definitely my favorite of all three collections. Flashdance inspired sweater anyone? The Houndstooth prints can be found on the adorable boyfriend blazer, “skeggings”, Jeggings, sweater dresses and knit dresses for the girls, while the boys get music and record spinning monkeys. Too cute!
It’s all in the detail, and Little Maven gets it right every, single, time. With Tori Spelling behind the line, would you expect any less?

Honor Warren, Jessica Alba’s daughter, looked cute as can be in her pink smocked romper. The simple yet stylish outfit skips all the typical fashion hype-up and proves that cute can be easy to do. Unlike some wild celebrity children’s fashions, any mom can do the smocked romper on her little girl.
There is only a few days of summer left, but that does not have to mean that the summer fun is over. A cute smocked romper is perfect for playing at the park, at the beach, or just in your own backyard. These are oh so sweet no matter how much fun you are having.
Smocking is a classic touch on children’s wear that definitely looks back at innocence and simplicity. The art of smocking, which is sewing with embroidery on an already pleated piece of cloth, has roots as far back the 12th century. Clearly, this is one look that has no intentions of going away. Modern smocked clothing adds a new, playful twist on the really classic style.
These are great play outfits for boys and girls. Better than a onesie, rompers give parents the convenience of one-piece play wear that looks adorable every way. You can find elegant smocked rompers that are perfect for formal days, and still offer mobility for kids on the go. You can go straight from church to the park without changing your toddler’s clothes.
Celebrities on the go know good taste, and Jessica Alba is certainly one of the most fashionable ones. If she’s dressing her daughter Honor in cute smocked rompers, then you know the smocked romper is in! Soak up the last few days of summer with a great, go-everywhere, summer toddler outfit. One thing is for sure, the sweet and simple smocked romper is the perfect piece this season!
