None of you can have failed to notice that we at BG are completely owl crazy. Now, I’m pleased to announce, Swedish superstore Lindex has followed suit. The latest additions to the baby section are these utterly adorable long-sleeved bodysuits in five colours – stock up now for winter as they’re €8.95 each and on [...]

I Got 99 Problems But a Bib Ain’t One

February 23, 2010 by · 1 Comment 

I’ve been a Jay-Z fan since the beginning of his career so of course I was watching when he appeared on Jonathan Ross on Friday and quickly knocked down Jonathan’s pitches to ‘duet’ with him. Jason Manford the very funny comedian was on before him and showed off this hand screenprinted bib by hip hop [...]

Maximillian the Moose Bib by Olive and Moss

Olive and Moss sent over one of these bibs for baby Nia in early November and I was instantly charmed by it, so much so that when the boyf scooped her up to take her out and asked me for a bib, I handed it over so she could show it off. Unfortunately he declined [...]

Sophie 4 Sophie Kinky Bibs

We’ve been big fans of Sophie 4 Sophie ever since we featured their reversible dresses last year when she was virtually unknown. Now, the creations of sister duo Natalie and Sophie are hitting the big time with several stockists, magazine mentions, and even a celeb or two hankering for a dress. She recently added scrumptious [...]

Ziestha Bibs

The more parents I speak and hang out with, the more I find that many of us are partial to owning a fancy bib or three, especially if it can do the job of several and look great with an outfit rather making them an accessory. I was instantly dazzled by these Danish beauties by [...]

Lizzie Hunt Bibs

Two kids in two years has seen a dramatic shift in bib offerings with me loving Bipi and Skibz bandana style bibs and Smafolk’s towelling bibs (I stocked up in a sale ages ago not knowing I was pregnant!). Following a ‘tweet’ by @KirstieMAllsopp (of Location, Location, Location), I have come across these over the [...]

Bipi Stuff Bandana Bibs

Elli writes… As a mother to a greedy baby, I know my bibs. In the early days of my daughter’s life, I would lovingly dress her in something gorgeous only for it to be splattered moments later. I then twigged that bibs weren’t something to wear during or just after a feed: they were as [...]

Review: Bumkins Waterproof Bibs

November 3, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

A while back I was sent some Bumpkins waterproof bibs all the way from the US to try out. Bibs are definitely one of those things where you may believe that there is much of a muchness. On BG, what we feature bib wise has a lot to do with style but there is a [...]

Natalie writes… Ah…sigh…I’ve found another fabulous vintage and retro haunt where I will be snapping up some birthday gifts for my mum and forcing myself to resist  shopping for myself or the bambino… I love these limited edition handmade Ollie Owl cushions which are handmade making each one unique and they’re really reasonable, £14.99 for [...]

Skibz

Natalie writes… When I was at The Baby Show on Sunday, Lucy from Lula Sapphire (you know this store has been my obsession for the longest time) told me that they are selling Skibz bibs by the truckload every day. At £9.99 a bib, it is testament to the fact that their may be a [...]

I saw these blankets at The Baby Show at Earls Court a couple of months ago and they were gorgeous. Lots of vintage prints to make you feel nostalgic, and they are really beautifully made. They come in ‘pram’, ‘baby’ and ‘child’ sizes starting at £31. Available at Inch Blue. They also have matching bibs [...]
