Lately, the theme in my world is baby. Not my own, but those of good friends and family members. It’s been exciting of course, but I have to admit I’ve been a little bored when it’s come to shopping for the many showers and gifts associated with this time.
It could be because on a selfish level I’d like to be buying a pair of Jimmy Choo’s I’ve had my eye on (come on - I’m admitting it’s selfish) or because most of the baby stuff out there is so predicable. Jungle animals, ABC letters, princess motifs - I’ve seen a hundred different versions of the same stuff, which is probably why I fall over anything handmade, organic or subtle.
Enter EGG Baby, by Susan Lazar. From her interesting symbol blankets and sweaters, to her adorable booties and cable hats, the designs are clean, classy, and princess-crown free. Anything like this is sure to stand out among a sea of go-to’s at the next shower you’re invited to.
