We love that baby gear is looking less and less like…well…baby gear!
Kate Spade is one of many designers that is offering baby items with mainstream style. The company’s web site says their new take on the classic noel bag lends mommy-hood a well deserved air of sophistication. The Noel Henry Baby Bag, $465, could pass for a work tote any day. The interior is accented with purple, and it also comes with a sleek purple changing pad.
And of course, the black and white bag coordinates well with this bold and bright Biarritz Stroller, $300. Named for a French town eleven miles from the border of Spain, the stroller is begging for a walk along the cobblestone streets of Europe, and a leisurely stop at a sidewalk café.
