Clava, really cool bags and Vegan too!

We were so excited to discover Clava, our newest line of totebags.  They are a creative company with a passion for bringing together elegant craftsmanship and inspiring styles. For thirty years, they have been designing sophisticated leather handbags, luggage and accessories that are always created with the freshest in fashion. Clava began with one bag created in a college dorm room and has evolved into a lifestyle brand that caters to anyone and everyone with a love for impeccable style and beautiful things.

We just love anything quilted! It never goes out of style and these adorable bags made out of durable nylon are just the thing you need for your next trip, the gym or an overnight stay.  They have tons of great pockets and it comes with an adorable pouchette. The bags can actually collapse into the pouchette but you won't need to do that as you'll be using it everyday! They are also totally Vegan. Love that! We offer 3 sizes in 3 easy colors. Oprah loved the tote bag because it's great for "stashing under the seat" and "the quilting makes it chic as a purse; a zipper closure keeps contents from falling out if it tips over." Check them out! http://www.orangeandpear.com/Clava-s/418.htm

It's Sunday and that means Downton Abbey!

We love Finn + Emma for Baby Gifts!

Welcome to the land of Finn + Emma, where they live in the balance of stylish and sustainable, whimsical and sophisticated, classic and contemporary. With fresh prints, modern colors, and heirloom quality construction, they are creating a new world for the organically grown baby.

One where boring designs and toxic chemicals are a thing of the past, and adorable, wearable, remarkable organic cotton is abundant!  Sustainability is bountiful too. You grew your little one organically, so why add chemicals now? Only the finest 100% organic cotton, eco-friendly dyes, and all natural wood will do for your little munchkin, and they’ve got plenty.

The minute I saw Finn + Emma, I was in love. It's a beautifully designed line for babies! They offer high quality pieces that make perfect gifts for that discerning Mom and Dad. We love the wooden teething ring and the little"lovies." The cozy sleep sacks are a must-have! They are offered in two great looking prints for boy or girl. Their gift sets are a perfect newborn gift. Lastly, I wish I had these tasteful looking Play Gym when my kids were babies. It's 15 times better than the plastic stuff that's out there. Everything is carefully tested and made of high quality materials. The cotton fabric is all 100% organic. You'll feel proud to give these beautiful pieces!
