I have lived in many homes, cities, and even a few countries. But when someone asks me what home is to me, I think of the place I spent most of my growing years. The place my family resides. The place I find comfort when times are tough. And the place that brings me joy […]
#Wordless Wednesday: Happy Belated Canada Day, Happy Early 4th of July!
It was our little American‘s very first Canada Day IN Canada! (And coincidentally, her first 4th of July off American soil). And what a day it was!! Head to toe – it was all about Red, White, and a whole lotta poutine! Can’t get any more fashion forward than that! (And of course in true, patriot […]
Happy BIRTH – Day to our Sweet Tory. Celebrating a Tiny Miracle.
40 weeks ago, from this very day, a tiny miracle happened. Her name was Tory. She was to be my second born. She was a miracle from the onset because despite us being told many times over that it was going to be impossible to conceive without assistance, we beat the odds. We got pregnant. […]

Opinions are like Buttholes – Everyone has one…
Several weeks ago, I was approached by a journalist from Norway who wanted to do a piece on Babystylista. It was flattering to say the least, and my immediate reaction was that of enthusiasm and openness. However, upon translating the article and the commentary associated to it, I was rather conflicted. Actually, I was downright […]

The Birth of Babystylista has only been a year and change, and we feel abundantly blessed with our support and readership.

Honoring Their Beautiful Memory – The Angels of Sandy Hook Elementary
I simply cannot fathom the grief, loss, and pain that the families are experiencing as a result of the tragedy that overcame the peaceful town of Newtown, Connecticut, as well as our nation on December 14th, 2012. As a parent, it really hits home – to the core – when you hear of children being […]
Hurricane Sandy. The Children. What Can We Do to Help?
It sure was hard to prance around in cute Halloween outfits, when at the very same moment on the opposite side of our country – there were, and continue to be hundreds of thousands of children suffering in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. From losing power, to losing homes, clothing, security, warmth – people – […]
Lights, Camera…FASHION!
Since the “birth” of my life as a Baby Stylist, not a day goes by without me being asked the very simple (and reasonable) question, “What EXACTLY do you do, as a so-called Baby Stylist?” A simple question which deserves a simple answer: I. Style. Babies. More specifically – I style and consult for Infant/children’s […]
He Ain’t called Big Daddy for Nothin’…
There’s nothing more adorable than a couple of deelish daddies strolling along on a Sunday afternoon, with a baby (or 2) in tow. Especially on Father’s day. What’s even more adorable is a daddy’s willingness to sport hot pink (for reasons none other than to parade around the city with his matching Mini-Me, meanwhile tapping […]
A Mama’s Best Friend – Remembering Kevin
Today – my baby came home. Not this baby. THIS Baby. And not “home” in the literal sense of the word, but home, well…. I take that back. Yes, we brought him home today. In a box, a beautiful locked wooden box, with his name inscribed on it. His name is Kevin… AKA “Kaybon”. He […]
We’ve come a Long way, BABY!
One year ago this day, Big Daddy and I experienced the most life-altering moment that changed the course of our existence. This moment was a gift. A gift that was packaged in a nice, big, shiny, pink bow (more like emerald green with brown accents). A miracle, really. And it happened in a blink of […]
Party Like a Rockstar!
A couple weeks back, LD was invited to what we considered to be, one of the coolest, hippest, most memorable Mini-Rockstar parties to date. Her Godsis Big C, and God Bro B2 – went ALL OUT and ROCKED IT OUT for their joint birthday at Music Stars and Masters in West Los Angeles. Anything a child could […]
Yo, Stylin’ Stylin’
Style isn’t merely a look or a label… it’s an attitude. And LD definitely has more than her share! Doing what she does best, LD hams it up with her fave crew – Yo Gabba Gabba as they rock it out with good ol’ Muno, Toodee, Brobee, Foofa, Plex, Do It, and her bud DJ Lance […]
