A Mommy Soiree: Sexy Swag & A Hot Mama Makeover!

Filed under What we like

 

We are just ecstatic to announce the upcoming Mommy Soiree taking place in Oakville on October 14 at Dirty Martini, and in Toronto on October 21 at The Gladstone Hotel.  This is the premiere shopping event in the Greater Toronto Area catered to trendy and hip Mamas, soon-to-be Mamas and their BFFs.  The Fashion Mommies will be there, and so will Stella & Dot!

Sure, there are plenty of fab shopping events out there, but why is A Mommy Soiree so unique?  3 reasons:
  1. It’s geared towards moms and their girlfriends only.  Kids tugging at moms pant leg and dads waiting impatiently are not on the fabulous-fun-list.
     
  2. It is the only event of its kind that has a philantrophic touch to it – with partial proceeds from the entrance fee and all the funds raised in the silent auction benefitting SickKids Foundation.  Hello?!  Great cause!  Enough said.

3.  A little birdie has told me that Mommy Soiree is giving away a Mommy Makeover valued at $600!  Who wants a brand new outfit and great Stella & Dot jewels?  I do!  I do!

So, for $10 what do you get?  Unique boutique shopping in a kid-free environment (because Fashion Mommies deserve a night out),
$5 Martinis, exclusive discounts, swag for the first 50 gals at each location, pampering sessions from Mommy Soiree’s partners - all of this taking place at swanky locations in the ‘burbs and the city.

Changing the world…one family at a time.

Discover Birth is on a mission to change the world and believes that through positive birth experiences, women, children and families can be happier, healthier and closer.

The birth of a baby has a long lasting impact on the physical and mental health of a woman, baby and family. The quality of emotional care a woman receives during labour, birth and immediately after is one vital factor that can strengthen or weaken the mother-child relationship. Women need consistent, continuous reassurance, comfort, encouragement and respect from those around her during childbirth. Research suggests that good support systems have been found to reduce anxiety, increase relaxation and a sense of well-being.

Discover Birth has a vision of reaching every woman, in every city, of every state/province in Canada and the United States to share a message of hope, empowerment, and support!

We girls at Shop for Baby believe that no mom out there should be carrying an ugly diaper bag that weighs a ton-and-a-half.  We know that moms tote around a lot of stuff…and we also know that moms need to tote this stuff around in style!  That’s where MagZ BagZG comes into the picture – where necessity meets great fashion.

Wait a minute!  Are we saying that diaper bags can be cool and functional after all?  Gasp!  That’s right moms!  MagZ BagZ has created fantastic arm candy in funky patterns and fabulous colours, while keeping the bag functional enough to carry the necessities of your life – whether you’re out in the world with baby, or you’re stealing some “Me Time” on your own.

The big mega plus that we love here at Shop for Baby:  MagZ BagZ are hand crafted in Canada, with 100% cotton that has UV and mildew inhibitors built-in.

When you become a parent, you realize how quickly time flies and how fast your little cutie pies grow up; which is why it is so important to capture those precious moments.  I recently had a photo session for the kids – and what an amazing experience!  I now have beautiful photos gracing my walls.  They serve as reminders of how sweet and amazing my children are…especially when they are being little rascals!  I am now taking a vow to have professional photo shoot done with the family every year – so that I can keep my photos fresh and up to date with an annual photo album keepsake.  The Shop for Baby team thinks you should do the same!  

If you are looking for a photographer, than you should check out Anita Hadjur.  She is a creative talent in the Greater Toronto Area with an eye for capturing those special moments.  We, at Shop for Baby, love her beautiful photography – she manages to make 5-day old wrinkled newborns look gorgeous!  Whether it’s a newborn session, a fun photo shoot with the toddlers, or a family gathering – Anita has a fresh perspective and pays attention to all the details.  Her portfolio is breathtaking and will make you melt! 

For those in the GTA and Halton region, please drop contact her and schedule your photo shoot!

Not all cupcakes are created equal! 

If you’ve never had a Tea Amo cupcake then you are definitely missing out. 

Based in Toronto, this cupcake company doesn’t just dabble with plain-Jane chocolate or vanilla flavours – don’t get us wrong, you’ll still find this variety on the menu…but with a twist.  Like Tea Amo’s tea infused Jasmine Vanilla with pastel buttercream, or other inspired flavours like Peanut Butter Chocolate with peanut butter frosting.  Our favs are the Chai Latte with whipped cream frosting, and the Almond Lintzer with almond buttercream and jam – yum!

 Do you have a particular flavour in mind, or a cupcake concept that you want to see come to life?  Tea Amo also specializes in by-request-only custom creations to suit your needs and for any occasion.

And, if you’re looking for a fabulous way to celebrate your kidlet’s birthday – why not call Tea Amo for their way-too-fun Cupcake Parties?  Owner Oksana Ulisko runs a cupcake decorating workshop for kids, while Stephanie Clark of Life in the Moment Photography snaps up pics of your cutie-pies decorating their delicious treats.

Shop for Baby loves entrepreneurial women, unique finds and supporting our home-grown and local artists. 

Brag About It is the perfect example of what we’re talking about!  Melissa began making jewelry after her second son was born out of the need for her own “girl time”, and wound up on Etsy.                    

Based out of Oakville, Ontario, Brag About It offers one-of-a-kind hand stamped and custom pieces that are as uniquely distinct as you.  Have a look through Brag About It’s collection on Etsy and you’ll find Sterling Silver stamped pendants paired with sparkling Swarovski Crystals and birthstones. 

 And if there’s something else you have in mind – then make a request for a custom designed Brag band, necklace or bracelet. 

We love Melissa’s collection!
