Giveaway open to US and Canada!

I’m always looking for cool new accessories for my girls, so I was thrilled when I got the opportunity to review some items from Bugalug Baby. I received a pony loop, a few barrettes, a headband, and a belt  for Frannie and Maggie to try out, and I was very pleased.

I mean, first of all, everything is adorable. Which, of course, matters. In terms of quality, I was also very impressed. Maggie FINALLY has long enough hair to work with (she was rockin’ an awesome mullet for quite a while) and Frannie adores new hairwear, so the items have been put to good use. As promised, the barrettes (with a unique grippy strip) and pony loops hold very well (though, to be completely honest, my determined two-year old was able to work them out of her super-fine hair eventually, but it did take her a lot longer than usual!) And although I don’t think I’ve ever actually purchased a belt for my kids, the one I was given looks very cute with Maggie’s jeans, and the elastic and snap button are so practical.

The headbands are particularly brilliant because they have a little size adjuster on the bottom, which allows you to tighten or loosen the band as necessary. That was handy, because the girls could share a headband, and it will grow with them as well.

The prices are very reasonable for the products you’re receiving. Items certainly aren’t dollar-store cheap, but you’re not getting dollar-store quality, either. No sweatshop junk here: these accessories, available in an array of colours and patterns, are hand-made by Canadian stay-at-home moms. (There are sales on the website to watch out for as well.)

Bugalug Baby is the place to go if you want to invest in some trendy-looking accessories that are going to work, and going to last. An excellent gift idea, too! Their tagline says it best: simple and sassy accessories that stay in place! And come on: if they’re good enough for Brooke Shields’ girls, aren’t they good enough for ours? 🙂

How would you like to go shopping at Bugalug Baby? I’m giving away a $25 gift certificate, which can be used for anything available on their site. (Shopping for baby boy? They also have boys’ belts and multiuse Soother Savers!)
