Phil&Teds always thinks of the best and coolest stuff EVER! Their new Traveller is no exception to that standard, either. It’s the most versatile, most portable, and most FUN of any portable crib system on the market today. It is super lightweight at only about 5 pounds, and packs away into it’s own little bag measuring a very compact 24″x8″x8″. AMAZING!!!
First let’s go over its use as an actual bed. It’s incredibly comfortable and quite roomy. You don’t get that hard-wooden-board-with-some-cheap-padding feel when you lay down on it. It’s more of a soft and airy landing pad! It’s not rigid at all and is still very supportive. It actually might make a great guest mattress if it came in larger sizes! It sets up and tears down with ease, and is incredibly lightweight for the family on the go.
Now, on to the fun part! It is a great bed, but even better it makes a fantastic hideout! The front zips down, making it perfect for use as a cozy little hideaway. Add in your sweetie’s favorite blankets, stuffed animals and a flashlight and it’s the perfect amusement for a night with the lights out, or a cool place to watch a favorite movie!
The Traveller is yet another ingeniously designed must-have product from the Phil&Teds family to your family. It comes in black and red and retails at $159. It is perfect for both indoor and outdoor use as it is 100% waterproof, washable, and even bug-proof when fully zipped up. Take it to the beach, to go camping, to grandma’s house or even on an imaginary trip to the jungle! We absolutely love it, and we are certain that you and your family will too!
Just found out what Martha’s been up to in preparation for her Fourth. Okay, maybe her assistants have been up to it, but it’s still pretty neat!
Take a peek, be inspired, and have a very happy and safe Fourth of July
Okay, so if you were one of us who watched Oprah on the day that she introduced us to her favorite turkey burger, you can understand why we had to go right out and get the ingredients to sample it ourselves! It turns out that they ARE as good as they looked on-air, so move on over Oprah because Bellaziza’s Favorite Things now has an Official Favorite Turkey Burger too! It’s not something we would have ever expected, but not all that surprising either at this point:). Ooh, and P.S. - Oprah, we love you!
So this recipe will be the star of the show at your 4th of July fête with your family’s potato salad or maybe even some Freedom Fries (LOVE the irony…and the French!). It comes from Donald Trump’s posh private club Mar-a-lago in Florida. Thanks to The Oprah for getting the recipe out of The Donald. Give it a try and enjoy your holiday!
Sauté the scallions, celery and apples in the canola oil until tender. Let cool.
Place the ground turkey in a large mixing bowl. Add sautéed items and the remaining ingredients. Shape into eight 8-ounce burgers. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
Season the turkey burgers with salt and pepper. Place on a preheated, lightly oiled grill. Grill each side for 7 minutes until meat is thoroughly cooked. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Serve with a side of Mar-a-Lago Pear Chutney and your favorite toasted bread, pita or hamburger roll.
Preheat oven to 350°.
Toss the diced pears with the cinnamon and salt. Bake on a parchment-lined cookie sheet for 10 minutes.
Cool and mix with the chutney and currants or raisins.
When we first saw this lovely collection of jewelry, we were so touched by the handcrafted beauty that goes into each piece and the memories that can be represented. In what seems to be an endless supply of mom inspired jewelry, Lisa Leonard’s collection is really so much different… and it’s not just for moms either.
Get creative! Each piece is not only personalized, but you can design it yourself in that the words that you choose can mean so many different things. Maybe yours will have the names of your children, or a name on one Tiny Square and a secret message on the other behind it!
Lisa Leonard has captured the poetry of life in her collection and we just love it’s fresh perspective on design and sentiment. Take some time to look through her website and you will be sure to be inspired! Also, take the opportunity to save 20% on all purchases of $100 or more with code JUNESALE20 this week only!

Happy Father’s Day to all of the great dads out there! We have put together a fabulous list for the shopping moms of a few of our Favorite Things that we think you’ll love on your special day!
First off is Sprinkles Cupcakes! What Father’s Day would be complete without something sweet for dad? Sprinkles has put together a special dozen just for Dads including their Peanut Butter Chip, Red Velvet, Black and White and Vanilla Milk Chocolate. Tres yummy and just perfect with the little “DAD” motif! We definitely heart Sprinkles!
Next we have some fabulously innovative and super cool products from Dad Gear! Dads are sure to love their incredible line of Cargo Jacket Wearable Diaper Bags and their new one-of-a-kind messenger bags from their Billboard Collection!
The thing that makes Dad Gear’s products so incredible is the fact that they look incredibly sporty and cool and at the same time, all function as a diaper bag! CLICK HERE to watch a quick explanation of just how the Cargo Jacket Wearable Diaper Bag works! It even has a pocket just for your iPod or MP3 player with a little slot for your headphones to come out of - SO cool!
Their Billboard Collection of messenger bags is such a trendy little concept too. They actually recycle used billboards that have been in use in their area that would otherwise end up in a landfill, cutting out and reusing what they think will look cool as the front of your bag! It’s very green, but at the same time so unique and not a style sacrifice at all! We LOVE it! CLICK HERE for a quick video about these great bags!
As all of our readers know, we REALLY have a thing for Phil& Teds. If we had a Favorite Favorite Things list, they would be there without a doubt! We just love their gadgety-innovative-incredibly-high-quality approach to everything that they make!!!
We saw their Escape child backpack and knew it would be the perfect thing for Dad! It is such a fun piece of equipment with every ounce of the quality and comfort that we expect from any Phil&Teds product. We couldn’t be happier with this product, from the specially designed air-flow backing material, to the super comfortable back supports, to the adorable detachable backpack for junior that snaps on the back of the Escape or comes off for separate use by your cutie pie. It’s another wonderful product from Phil&Teds and one that your family is sure to get loads of use out of.

Stay tuned for more great SWAG ALERTS coming up really soon including our Favorite Things for Father’s Day!!! Oooh, Aaah!!! You won’t want to miss this one:)!!!
When we first saw their little shirts from across the room, we were like ‘OMG, TOO CUTE!!’ They would have to be the hippest threads out there for any little man. We hear moms of little boys saying all the time that it’s harder to find really great things for boys than it is for girls and to be quite frank, it is a fact. That’s why D-Mo Baby’s line of boys clothes is oh so special!
Each little shirt is very Barney’s-esque and definitely too cool for school. When paired with one of their little blazers though, it’s a real tear jerker! Again, OMG, TOO CUTE!! The quality of the materials used is gorgeous and the little shirts seriously look great straight out of the dryer! They wash extremely well, as a quality garment should, and we are SO very happy to have found them.
The designer, Dana Morgan-Hovind is a former corporate gal who after having her son was disappointed with the selection of fashionable clothes for boys that was available. She loved to shop for her husband’s clothes but couldn’t find what she wanted for her son! She was not the only mother out there with the same problem, and that’s why she is finding her success now! Go Dana!!!
D Mo Baby not only offers a truly unique and A-list worthy product, but their story really inspires us. Dream big and see what happens!
