  • Vapur Collapsible Drink Bottle

      I just became of aware of these innovative  Vapur drink bottles which can be rolled, folded or flattened when empty – and easily tucked away! We use reusable bottles but somehow, once they are empty, I just hate carrying them around. It’s not rigid so can fit easily into most places and is also reusable, attachable,…

  • Senta Cork Stool by Fernando Brizio

    I just love the versatility of this pack and carry Senta stool by designer Fernando Brizio. The wooden legs fit into the cork seat and you can sit on it low or attach the legs and have a higher stool. The possibilities of this piece are endless – this would fit into a tote bag…

  • Nudge Eco Lifestyle Store – Helsinki

    I am really intrigued by Nudge. It’s a whole new way of shopping, and living and design. Nudge is the eco lifestyle center in Helsinki, Finland, which consists of a shop dedicated to sustainable and Fair Trade clothing, furniture and accessories from Scandinavia and beyond, a showroom, a consultancy and a meeting place where you can…

  • Le Vestiaire de Jeanne – French Label

    I came across this unique and sophisticated French label the other day and I was intrigued and touched. The story is interesting. Charlotte Le Stum-Meyer, an 18 year-old Medical student, makes some clothes for her beautiful little six year-old sister, blogs about it, people clamor to buy her clothes, she drops out of Medical school and…

  • Art Installation in Greenwich Village

    Here is the next in our series of Public Art Projects with neighborhood kids, and like the first, (see here) using balloons! This is is entitled, “Belle of the Ball” or “All Dressed Up And Nowhere To Go.”  I figured that I cover fashion for kids – why not for our beautiful tree here? The…

  • Photo Op NYC – Family Photography Giveaway

    We haven’t had professional photos taken in a while as I always fear it’s going to be such a stressful undertaking as well as all the usual biz with our little ultra-spirited ones. I used to be (and still am from time to time) an actress, and honestly, the photo shoots were not my favorite…

  • Kinderkookkafe – Amsterdam

    This Kinderkookkafe is the most child-friendly cafe I’ve ever heard of, on the far side of Voldelpark in Amsterdam where your children can cook for you. They have pictures of the food to help them choose like pizza: they are given a tray with all the toppings and a ball of dough and after they…

  • Bonobos Vegetarian Restaurant

    So I thought I’d give our Fashion Week on Bellissima Kids a breather and tell you about this wonderful place where we had lunch today. We’ve been going to Bonobos Vegetarian Restaurant for years. And in fact, it’s not only vegetarian but raw. And not only raw, but mostly organic… and delicious! Here is Oona…

  • Molly’s Cupcakes – Greenwich Village

    I feel like an intrepid reporter with this one as this place opened just three days ago on Bleecker St. near 6th Ave. in Greenwich Village. They have quite a reputation already in Chicago, where the first Molly’s is. Chicago Magazine judged their Red Velvet cupcake the best in Chicago. Johnny, the owner, opened Molly’s in…
