Urban Baby Style
Hey friends!
Today we have Amanda, one of my most favorites, here to introduce you to Urban Baby Style. Her sweet baby boy Shep just turned one this past June and he has been seen rockin some pretty modern styles all over Charleston since birth. I love that my dear friend has such a unique style different from my own. It keeps it fun! Long before either one of thought about actually birthin' any babies we made a pact that we'd respect the other's style. As in, you promise to only buy my baby monogrammed and smocked frocks and I promise not to. We adore and respect each other's individual styles and extend that perspective to our babes. Here's a fabulous look into her fresh style!
Urban Baby Meets the South?!?!
Infantus Urbanus: Young mammal raised in city environment. Infantus urbanus love nights at the opera, modern architecture, and fine cuisine; difficult to spot at night due to thier penchant for black clothing.
Mt. Pleasant, SC is not quite a "city" environment so sometimes I forget where I am and wake up in all black despite the Lilly Pulitzer that surrounds me. If you will, let's try to embrace for a moment all things black and modern. Here are a few things I think are FAB and wanted to share with all my sweet southern belles.

Let's wheel the orbit out for a skinny vanilla latte play date and tour a museum. I love the tongue-in-cheek facetious tone. Thank you Michelle Sinclair Colman for reminding everyone you can raise your kids without a dreaded minivan
