Are you ready for Fall?
This week has been hectic. I find myself telling everyone...shop often buy early!
What I mean is if you see something you like...chances are, it will be gone when you come back! I can't tell you how many people came for a Winter coat...I showed them our selection back in July and August. Now that Fall is in the air, the coats are gone! We have VERY low stock left! I only buy a select amount so your child does not go to school with a coat that several other children have...
So, we are now receiving holiday pieces. As I said in my last Blog and in person at the store...we no longer buy those frou frou dresses that scream, "I am a holiday dress!" The trend is dressy pants, skirts, tops, and accessories, even nice denim. The kids love it and the parents appreciate an outfit that can be worn on several different occasions!
We have golds and sequins. We have leggings and funky knits with tights. That is the look, the trend.
Same goes for boys...a cool Diesel tee or a fun sweater from TEA. We also have the French brand Miniman as well as Deux Par Deux. Fun bat hoodies with cut outs for eyes when fully zipped. Punk tees and Go Green tees and of course, we have organic fabrics from many brands.
Maternity: I have been selling jeans and more jeans. My fun hoodies are running low but a new big order is coming in (hopefully!) next week!
Also, my maternity leggings and most sweaters are moving fast. Those orders started coming in July...Buy early-shop often!
Lastly, gifts...the Heelarious baby girls shoes are a big hit! I love the zebra. I have been selling them with the funky Patricia Ann zebra blanket....what a great gift set!
I hope to see you often and remember, buy early!!!

Fall is here!!!
WOW! What a summer! We opened a second store in New Buffalo, MI-just for the busy summer season. Jana the other owner ran that store and Lisa stayed in Highland.
Now that it is September...we are both back! Fall hours are back, too! Mondays thru Fridays 10-7 PM, Saturdays 10-5, Sundays closed. After hours...by appointment only!
Call us at 219.924.0100.
The trends for fall...are leggings, skinny jeans,tunics, tanks over tees, knee hi's and thermal tops under short sleeve tees. You will see stripes, golds, turquoise, and chocolate colors. We have been selling alot of that look for a year now but it is sticking!
We are down to the last 4 girls coats! Thanks for all those smart shoppers who came in often and bought early.
Another trend for kids especially girls is holiday apparel. The fancy dress is OUT we kept hoping it was not but this past Summer season really was an eye opener. So, outfits that scream,"I am a holiday dress" will NOT be at mama i beba. Instead, we have dressy outfits even pants that are special and different and will scream "Boutique!" Jana and I read all the fashion mags and track trends...the fru fru dress is a thing of the past!
Boys...we added new brands...Miniman, Tuto piccolo,Mini fine,I Dream of Johnny, Pampolina,Little Traveler, NEST,Little Revolutionary, Honeyroo. And we kept the ever faithful, DIESEL, Wes N Willy,inky Dink tees,Deux par Deux,and will bring in TEA later this Fall and of course, MONSTER INDUSTRY. I am talkin' jeans, cargos, knit hats and organics.
Mom's with boys have been snatching up the Astronaut/Spider tees, anything Diesel, and Organic tees/pullovers like crazy...we just got a re order. Also, the Diesel coats are moving fast...we are down to one boys style but we have fall zip up hoodies available.
Girls...we added Lola et Moi and are practically sold out...we have a few 12-18m left. We also added Twirls and Twigs, Ooh! la la couture, Beetlejuice,Honeyroo,Flit and Flitter, Agatha Ruiz de la Prada,T2love,Grandma Ness, Harajuku lovers, Malley and Co outfits/dresses and Pampolina. Plus we continue to carry our core brands...too many to list!
Mom's with girls have been seen snatching up Deux Par Deux knits, English Roses tees and dresses, Diesel skinny jeans and the Trumpette Mickey mouse hats like crazy!
New Moms, babies, gift options...we have lots of Patricia Ann blankets, Belle baby blankets, Mary Jane Trumpette socks, and organic clothes to choose from. We also sell alot of the muslin 4 packs of swaddlers. Lastly, we have POSH baby coming in...they are princess jewelry boxes and tons of other princess inspired goodies for birthday gifts or gifts just because...Petunia Pickle Bottom bags will ship as ready...new fall fabrics on our ever popular boxy backpacks and touring totes.
Maternity...we added MAME maternity, TBags-FEM,Blessence, lots of hoodies from 2CHIX, and we keep the fav brands...Olian, Maternal America, RIPE and Noppies.

mama i beba opens store #2 in New Buffalo, MI
Sorry for not blogging! We have been very busy with the new store. Yes, we opened #2 back in June. We have shoes/maternity/kids clothes at the new store.
But don't forget about Highland, that is still our flagship store. We are slowly getting Fall in. Many manufacturers are importing the fabrics/labor until very late because the economy is so poor. but we have pictures of what has been ordered.
We only have 3 spots left for the fabulous Ann Latinovich sittings we are offering as a gift from us to you. All you need to do, is spend $150 before tax to qualify for this gift. What you get is a free mini session with the ultra-talented Ann. These will be held at her NEW Munster location.
We look forward to seeing you especially in New Buffalo! That address is 9 W. Mechanic, Behind Nancys just off of Whittaker Street. The phone is 269.469.1007. Hours are Mondays through Fridays noonish until 6 PM, Saturdays and Sundays noonish until dusk.

BYE BYE 2007!
WOW! One more year goes by...we started last year with decent gas prices and a positive outlook on our economy. Sure, gas prices are going back down NOW but did they fluctuate this past year!
I can't tell you how many people have came into the store wanting to see the new Spring...well, I have pictures of what is coming and I have an evergrowing section of already delivered Spring towards the front of the store! I sold out of all my CORKY COATS except some lightweight Seeds by Corky layette boys! I still have boots and some Fall shoe styles left. For Spring, NATURINO has started to ship as well as LIPSTIK shoes.
Jana and I are really trying to set OURSELVES apart from other boutiques in the Midwest. We are slowly going away from the usual boutique brands that EVERY BOUTIQUE online or BRICKS N MORTAR stores carry. We really want to be unique and unusual and have what no one else has. Of course, there are some of my fav brands that have such a huge line that I just have to buy...BABY LULU, CACH CACH, OLIAN MATERNITY.
HEY, if you live in a SE Chicago burb or in NW Indiana, ROYCE PHOTGRAPHY will have a rustic background for next Fall 2008. Royce mentioned that he took a apart a real rustic cabin and used the parts as an amazing background for next year. So, boys can wear plaids and fair isle sweaters vest and/or jackets. Girls can be more comfy in a coordinating outfit or dress. So, if you are savvy shopper, I have some styles left from ONE KID and CHARLIE ROCKET that would be great and at an even better price.
How lucky are we to have such great photgraphers in our area! We have something for everyone...Edda Taylor, Anna Blackman, Royce and, of course....ANN LATINOVICH!
Well, I am glad gas is under $3 a gallon and hope the economy stays on track:)
Happy Winter!
