Boujie Baby Banter

We're Back From the Golden Globes!!

2009-02-05T15:00:00.013-06:00

Boujie Baby Couture recently rocked the Boom Boom Room, the celebrity parent gifting suite for the Golden Globe Awards. Boujie emerged as one of the most coveted baby brands for new and current celebrity moms, and the featured bags from our Street Chic line were requested by more parents than we had inventory for! Here are some of our newest Boujie Baby fans:

Constance Marie

Mother and busy actress Constance Marie has a plate full of activities. Appearing on heavy-hitting shows like the George Lopez Show and CSI, she has been working for years on prime time television in addition to her movie performances, like her breakout role in Selena. She is also pregnant with her first child. Whew!

Constance Zimmer

The legalistic roles of Zimmer’s stays on In Justice, Boston Legal and Entourage are stark contrasts with her newest role—mommy! Zimmer gave birth to daughter Collette Zoe early in January, and we’re certain she will embrace this role with no objections.

Elisabeth Rohm

You may recognize our next law-practicing actress from the seemingly-endless Law and Order series. Rohm welcomed her very first child last year whose name, Rohm affirms, came to her in a dream. Whether little Easton Wooster’s name birthed of fantasy or not, we are sure that she will be present at Rohm’s wedding with Ron Wooster, which is scheduled for September.

Ali Landry

Tabloids love former Miss USA, Ali Landry, and we love her too. Not because of her numerous appearances on talk shows and countdowns, or even because she’s from Louisiana and it’s Mardi Gras season. It’s because she knows that Black is the New Boujie and adores the bags!

Chyler Leigh

26-year-old Chyler Leigh has wasted no time building a sizable family. The burgeoning actress, who plays Meredith’s (Ellen Pompeo) half sister on TV mega drama Grey’s Anatomy, has two children and is expecting a third. Between the show and the children, Leigh must feel quite at home in hospitals!

Brooke Mueller

Brooke Mueller is a relatively new face for Hollywood and a new mother as well. This real-estate investor turned spotlight wife of Charlie Sheen is expecting the arrival of twin boys. Despite vile humor and commentary on Charlie Sheen matrimonial attempts, we wish the couple the absolute best.

Rich Sommer

Hilarious star Rich Sommer from The Office is more than just an actor. Like the rest of our notables here, he is also a successful parent AND he is a blogger, too!. His daughter Beatrice Sommer was born in December of 2007, and you can investigate his blog at http://richsommer.vox.com/.

The Boom Boom Room is Hollywood’s premier hotspot for the newest and hottest in fashionable fare for babies and big kids, and we were thrilled to be a part of it. Check in soon for more Boujie Baby updates!

Baby Booming: Hot Ma-mas of 2008

2009-01-08T20:09:00.020-06:00

If no other trend survives the move from '08 to '09, chances are, the baby boom will. Last year was a flurry of Hollywood pregnancies--let's take a look back on some of them:

Halle Berry

Even Halle Berry couldn’t resist surfing the wave of pregnanci

es that has washed over Hollywood. Having recently given birth to her first child, Nahla Ariela Aubrey, with model and boyfriend Gabriel Aubrey in March, she was obviously pregnant again by the fall of 2008. As usual, Halle Berry is gorgeous and smiling, and we wish her the best on her second go-round.

Amy Poehler

Funny lady Amy Poehler an

nounced her pregnancy in April of 2008, in tandem with her film Baby Mamma reaching No.1 in the box offices. Also having played the role of a mother in Mean Girls, I’m sure we can all hope that her own child will end up nothing like Regina George!

Jessica Alba

FHM Magazine’s Sexiest Woma

n of 2007, Jessica Alba, was another on a looong list of celebs that added a new member to her family in 2008. Honor Marie, the daughter of Alba and Cash Warren, who helped direct her ion Fantastic Four, arrived in June—just in time for summer fun!

Nicole Kidman

In the beginning of 2008, the classically beautiful Nicole Kidman announced that she was “thrilled” to be pregnant again. Why? Because although it will be Kidman’s third child, it will be her first with hubby Keith Urban. And Kidman continues to prove that pregnancy no longer means frumpy doilies and burlap sacks by looking elegant and classy with her extra passenger in tow.

Niki Taylor

Textbook supermodel Niki Taylor revealed that she is pregnant in late 2008 and also thrilled! It’s bound to be a fashionable and gorgeous pregnancy, so we’ll watch her style as her bump orbs outward!

Cate Blanchett

Although Cate Blanchett, our favorite Hollywood Aussie, announced pregnancy in late 2007, we loved to track her mommy style in 2008. Look for her to stylishly grace the red carpet in a few days at the 2009 Golden Globes, possibly after visiting the Boom Boom Room where Boujie Baby will be front and center!

Tori Spelling

Whether or not you personally endorse bikinis for expecting mothers, you’ve to give it to Tori Spelling of 90210—you can tell she feels great! She is expecting her third child, she announced in October 2008, and will undoubtedly use this experience as more fodder for her clothing line. Accessory divas unite!

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez has been a fashion muse for years, boasting an unparalleled repertoire of styles and the ability to successfully change it up on a whim, and we got an opportunity to see her personal style accommodate pregnancy in 2008.

Giada de Laurentiis

A switch from the typical celebrity starlets, TV chef Giada de Laurentiis, also became a mom in 2008, giving birth to daughter Jade Marie. Not fiercely paparizzi-ed like others on the list, this happy family photo is a charming breath of fresh air, and we hope the best for her and all of our other moms in the new year!

Ashlee Simpson

The youngster on the list, Ashlee Simpson (Wentz) with husband Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy, confirmed pregnancy with US Weekly back in April of 2008. Recovering nicely from her SNL debacle and an overshadowing big sis, Ashlee Simpson is all grown-up and expecting VERY soon! Once her baby is born, we may very well see her nestling bottles in her Boujie Baby bags!

Angelina Jolie

No celebrity pregnancy blog would be complete without an Angelina

appearance. Possibly the master of the maxi-dressed pregnancy, Angelina Jolie flipped it on its head in March 2008 with this green Max Azria masterpiece. Always beautiful (and always pregnant, it may seem), she was still a style maven, adding twins to her family of four children.

2008 was an awesome year for everything baby, and 2009 is bound to be even better! Stay tuned to the Boujie Blog and feel free to comment on anything you see.

Are you the Coolest Mom?

Boujie Baby Couture has once again been reviewed by the leading online mommy review site CoolMomPicks.com

If you haven't signed up for their newsletter, then it's a MUST DO on your list.

Here's a view of what they had to say about the Street Chic Collection

"Diaper bags are getting less and less diaper bag-y by the minute, which is just the way we like 'em. The latest entrant into the Project Runway-ready bag category are the new Street Chic bags from longtime CMP fave, Boujie Baby.The two Basilia bags in faux croc or black with the croc accents have that same slouchy but structured construction I'm seeing the disposable income crowd snatching up at Barney's. Only designer Suzanne Kopulos has built in features that matter to moms like wipeable fabrics, and interior pockets for bottles, pacifiers, keys and other assorted baby junk. I really like the detachable shoulder strap too that lets you carry the bag the way it suits you best. I really really like that the bag is just $149. If it's more bag than you need, take a look at the Basilia's clutch counterpart, the Michigan Ave Mini. Either way, what's really chic is the new Boujie Benevolence program in which 5% of your purchase goes to charity. -Liz

Congratulations to Karissa G, winner of the Street Chic bag!"

Steal this Look!!!

Salma Hayek is notably one of the chicest Hollywood stars on the scene. Her red carpet appearances are nothing less than show stopping, but her newest headline photos are not from movie premiers or awards ceremonies, but her biggest accomplishment of becoming a mom. In this photo originally posted on PopSugar.com, Salma is captured toting her adorable daughter Valentina with a look-alike Basilia Bag!!! You can steal this look for much less than high-end designer handbags with Boujie Baby Couture! Take a look. Can you tell the difference???
