Review: Lassie Girl

Want some gorgeous, well made summer clothes for your little one or your friend's little one?  Head over to Lassie Girl immediately.  I received the most beautiful package from Lassie Girl.  It was a pinafore with bloomers and matching barrettes.  Everything was so well made.  You can tell this lady takes pride in her work. 

Every fabric in the shop is gorgeous.  She has some unique fabrics that I have never seen before too.  No baby ducks and princesses.  Just fun fabrics that look adorable on your little one without being babyish.

My daughter looks like a cute little cupcake in her outfit.  Trust me, you won't be sorry if you order from this store.  Everything is very reasonably priced.  I already see many more things that I need!

Snake Lock

This snake lock is perfect for fending off the would-be robbers from stealing your bike!  Haha.  But really, you gotta admit this is a cute alternative to the normal plain looking locks that everyone else has.  $34 at Fredflare.

Butt Freckles

   Atom Ant Butt Freckle                        Down Under Butt Freckle

When I came across this shop I was like "What the..!" but the theme has grown on me like a..well..a butt freckle *snicker*.

"All freckles are snatched off quickly and with excessive force. They are then taken to a secret lab where they are exposed to radioactive caju dust which causes the freckle to greatly increase in size. After exposure to the dust, the freckle's unique characteristics become easily visible including their very own butt freckle (a special glass bead sewn on the rear)." $5-6ish at  Butt Freckle *snicker*

Chick Chair

I adore this Chick Chair!  It's a such a fun way to add personality to a child's room.  Comes in a variety of colors.  $210 at Mahar Drygoods

Long Haired Dachshund Dog Puzzle

I don't have a dog but I am dying for a Dachshund and I think these hand cut wooden dog puzzles are so cool! They have lots of dog choices and they can also be custom made with your dog's name.  There is a HUGE variety of animals so if you love any animal at all check them out.  $12 at  Puzzimals

Oopsy Daisy High Chair Hair Care Rinse Free Shampoo

When I was contacted to review this no rinse kid's shampoo I was very hopeful and yet obviously skeptical. Dry shampoos for adults never seem to work like they swear so I figured this would be the same.

I am happy to report that I was wrong.  This is a fabulous product!  I figured it would be fine for baby girl as she has thicker short hair but my three year old has fine hair that looks greasy very easily.  To use it you just pump out a few pumps of the shampoo.  It turns into foam in your hand.  Then you work it into a lather just like a regular shampoo and towel dry.  Lastly, brush the hair and your done!  Shiny hair that smells like a dreamsicle!

This is perfect for those nights when they just had a bath and somehow manage to get dirty again.  If your house is anything like mine then shampooing is a tortuous event for everyone involved!  With all natural ingredients and fabulous results I don't see why you wouldn't use it!  I highly recommend it!

$18 at Oopsy Daisy  (I have used mine a few times and it has hardly made a dent.  A little goes a long way)

These handmade, wool felt pillows are super cute!  $69.95 at Elsewares

This Shirt Saved a Life T-Shirt

I am totally in love with these "This Shirt Saved a Life" t-shirts!  In a partnership with Africa Aid, $20 from the sale of each "This" shirt goes to feed a refugee child for an entire year in their school lunch program in Ghana.  These shirts will definitely bring you good karma, because not only will you be helping a child, each 100% buttery cotton shirt is printed using non-toxic, Eco-friendly inks.  Each tee has an interior print explaining the exact allocation of funds and is hand numbered prior to shipping so you'll know exactly where you are in the fight. Available in sizes from baby 6M - 12 (teen) to Women's S-XL & Men's S-XL. $38 for children and $42 for adults at Tiny Revolutionary.  Save a life today - what a great gift!

Magic Dragon Overnight Bag

Too cute - a magical dragon bag for those overnight trips.  Love the crinkly iridescent tongue.  $24 at Calliope.

Mario Sound Plush

Who doesn't love Mario Brothers video games?!  Choose from the yellow star, the turtle shell, or the brown goomba, and hear the sounds from the video games when you hit them.   Perfect gift for a kid or that adult who doesn't want to grow up (like me!).  Found at Japan LA.

Balancing Monkeys

These little balancing monkeys are made of non-toxic, organic rubberwood and colored with vegetable dyes, so they're not only cute but environmentally friendly. Hanging the monkeys together from the tree in different combinations supposedly helps kids learn basic math and balance concepts. They'd make a great gift for a few little monkeys I know! On sale for $18 at Modern Kid Stuff.
