Fall is REALLY rolling in now! Everyday we get a box in from your favorite lines! Look how ADORABLE he is!! That is what you will hear when your little boy struts around in this fabulous dump trunk sweater set from Florence Eiseman! You can't tell very well from the picture, but there are little embroidered dump trucks on over the light corduroy pants! (oh, and this has a pretend zipper fly and button, so they think they're a big boy, but you don't have to do all the frustrating work!)Oh, when I see things like this it makes me want a little boy! Enjoy!

Tuesday's Gift Idea

Books, Books and more Books! Reading is so important to children! Getting a child introduced to books at an early age is so important for there interest in them later in life! As I go through worn out books on my daughters' bookshelves I can't help but reminisce on the bedtime fun we had or the sweet note on the front page from a friend, uncle, grandparent and great-grand! What a wonderful gift to give! Bellamia hand picks books by reading them before selling them so that we make sure it is safe and has a good story line for your little one. Most of our books come with accessories, so you can give a book alone, or pair it with a matching puzzle ,stuffed animal, book mark, puppet, or even a cute pair of Pj's! Enjoy!!

I have a little sad news for you. We will have to be out of our current location July 31st and our plan was to be re-opened in our new location August 1st. We are building out a super cute space for you to enjoy with LOTS of new and fun ideas, including: reserved Bellamia parking, a rear entrance into the store from the large back parking lot that can be accessed off of Beeker Street which is off Choctaw (VERY cool!), great play area, fun decor, Tea Party Etiquette classes, oh, and did I mention RESERVED PARKING, great location and lots more!

Thursday Tidbits!

This week for "Thursday Tidbits" -I would like to share about this past weekend's Market trip! I found some adorable new lines for next Spring! Yes, I know what you're thinking "NEXT SPRING"! In fashion retail you buy way ahead. This is GREAT for us, because we just finished the season we are buying for. It makes buying easier, so requests are fresh on our mind from our customers and we know what did and didn't sell well or what we did or didn't need more of in our store. This was also a gift Market, so I was able to scout out and buy some FABULOUS toys and accessories for this coming holiday season! I don't have any pictures of these, but I will give you a sneak peak into next spring! Enjoy- Katie

Below is what I consider a FABULOUS new line "Ga Ga Chic" for bellamia

Pictured are just a few pieces out of what will be in our store in Spring '09 (can't wait)!

And wait until you see there price point- FABULOUS!!

Catamini never seems to disappoint me with there Spring Collection! This dress is GORGEOUS!

This dress can easily be taken into fall!

What little boy doesn't have a sail boat or safari print outfit for Spring?

If your little one doesn't, then this outfit is the one to get from Spudz!

Hello Ducks!! This duck smocking by Vive La Fete is precious! I will have it on dresses, bubbles, and shortalls!

Vintage is back! Can anyone say "Grandmother's kitchen table cloth"? If you don't care for this print, don't worry there are TONS more Adorable Baby Nay to choose from. But if you LOVE this- hurry in next Spring for your size, because Baby Nay flies out of the Shop!

Oh, and saving the BEST for last!!! Drum roll please..........................
