'Wear Your Heart On Your Back' Organic Cotton and Velvet Girls' Tee $28.95
'Groovy Guitars' Wet Bag $18-$25
'Stack It' Recycled Oxidized Sterling Silver and Pearl Rings $98
Jillybean Green makes my heart beat fast. It’s like all the kid stuff I scour the web for, loaded into one happy little spot. And it’s fun to say (you know you just said it). Created by an L.A. mom who adores both her kids and the environment, Jillybean offers alternatives to adopting a greener lifestyle, without having to compromise the ‘hip’ factor. Every manufacturer they work with creates products that are either organic, made with sustainable or recyclable materials, employ fair trade practices, or are recyclable, reusable and or/non-toxic. They also support local artisans, designers and good old USA manufacturing – woo hoo!
What I love best about Jillybean Green (besides saying it, okay I’ll stop) is the stuff; babies, kids, gear, bath time…moms, JBG has it all! In addition to my picks above, one of my most fave parts of their site are the 100+ items in the Under $25 Finds section, perfect for gift giving and otherwise. (P.S. How cute is that ‘Heart On Your Back’ tee?!) If you happen to be in Los Angeles, Jillybean now has a store located inside the birthday party locale of choice (*drum roll*) The COOP, located at 11118 Ventura Blvd, in Studio City. But you don’t have to hop a plane to reap the benefits of Jillybean, since they have been generous enough to team up with LASM to offer one lucky ready a $50 gift certificate! As always, entering is easy when you follow these simple steps:

IVEE 'Ella' Top in Coral/Red $39
If you know me at all, then it’s no big secret that working out is not my most fave thing on the planet. Pilates? Love, but probably because the only thing missing from the reformer is an ashtray, it’s so relaxing. A brisk walk up the canyon (which isn’t a hike ladies, so stop calling it that)? I’m in, but even then mostly due to the fact that I have a 100 lb. Dane mix, leaving me with little choice. You have a better chance of finding me at REI on a Saturday afternoon than you do on an elliptical, but now that I’m Iveestylin’? It’s almost enough to make me want to treat the treadmill like a runway.
I’ve never featured workout clothes before, and have done quite the decent job of dodging your questions regarding them. This was of course pre-Ivee, who were generous enough to send me this modern and comfy ‘Ella’ top, that I kind of don’t want to take off. (You hear that FTC? They sent it to me. TO REVIEW.) The cut is super flattering, and although it fits snugly in the boobs – complete with removable pads – what I love is that it isn’t skin tight. (FYI I’m a 4/6 on top, and mine is a medium – I could have gone with a small for a smoother silhouette.) My other fave is the ‘Chloe’ top, which like her friend ‘Ella,’ is far more chic than the yawn of a tank top or sports bra (which – Hi! – should not be worn alone and called a ‘top’).
Here’s your chance to ditch your dirty tees and score some Ivee duds of your very own! LASM and Ivee have teamed up to give away a $50 discount code, good on orders of fifty dollars or more! (Go figure.) Simply visit iveestyle.com, choose the item you like best, and tell us about it in the comments section of this post.* If you Tweet or Facebook this link to the giveaway, we’ll throw in an additional entry – do both and we’ll throw in two, so be sure to let us know…good luck!
*All comments must be posted by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday December 16th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom shortly thereafter. One entry per person with a maximum of two additional entries for Twitter and/or Facebook links to this contest. Open to U.S. residents only.

The 2 Bandits Gold & Black Leather 'Riders' $70 (Per Pair)
Your boots called – they’re bored. They have never been a hotter commodity, yet you continually pile all the jewelry and accessories onto yourself and…ignore them. It’s redemption time for you and your tired boots, because Riders from The 2 Bandits are in the hizzay, and they are amazing! Allow me to clarify: /RYE-derz/ n. Boot harness with brass chains and fine black latigo leather. Adjustable. Sold as a pair. $70. (Boots not included.) You with me? Good, because there’s more.
Founders Erica Chan and Tamar Wider started out making these excellent Bandits to embellish the tops of the boot shaft (I like the studded Edie version, in brown), and eventually branched out to Riders for Fall 2009. How much do I love them? A ton. When The 2 Bandits generously agreed to team up with LASM for a giveaway, how badly did I want to ditch you guys and keep them? Very badly – but I dig you, so here’s your chance to win a pair of black and gold Riders worth seventy bucks, and make your blah boots brilliant! To enter, leave a comment on this post with a brief description of your lame-ass boots that are in desperate need of Riders embellishment. Whoever has the neediest boots? Wins! (P.S. For those of you who can’t wait to see if they’ve won? The 2 Bandits has FREE DOMESTIC SHIPPING!)
All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday November 25th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom shortly thereafter. Open to U.S. residents only.

Funky Music Top (Child) in 'Greymelange' $26
Folklore Maternity Tunic $59.50
All Over Stripe Eco Leggings (Child) in 'Colonial Blue' $30
Wind Fleece Bunting in 'Poppy' $72.50
…for about sixty different reasons! Paramount amongst them, is that fact that not only are their clothes simple, modern, and comfy, 30% of every collection is designed around a UNI(sex) concept. Having not found out the sex of my children during either pregnancy (and having fielded the ridiculous and unending question, ‘But how will you know how to decorate the nursery?!’ ), by the time of their arrival I was lousy with yellow, green, and white ensembles. Polarn’s newborn ECO collection is not only almost entirely designed with UNI in mind, it’s also made from 100% organic cotton and produced in a green manufacturing process.
Where have they been all your life? Unbeknownst to me, PO.P began in Stockholm in 1976, and has grown to over 100 stores across Sweden and Europe. It’s now available in the United States at polarnopyretusa.com, with retail locations to follow. Had I known about them prior to my first pregnancy, you better believe I would have scooped up their clean and classic signature stripe for not only my babies, but also for myself – that’s right – there’s maternity and nursing wear!
If you’re not already chomping at the bit? PO.P and L.A. Stylist Mom have teamed up to create a FREE SHIPPING code valid through midnight PST on Friday, November 13th; simply enter LAPOP at checkout. We’re also giving away a Wind Fleece Bunting for baby worth $72.50, in the size and color of your choice!* All you have to do to enter is visit polarnopyretusa.com, and leave a comment here letting us know which PO.P item is your fave – that’s it! Good luck, and happy shopping from LASM and PO.P…
All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday, November 18th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail on Thursday, November 19th, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom Friday, November 20th. Open to U.S. residents only.
*Size and color choice contingent upon availability.

Coopersong Mid-Hipster Bag in 'Black Eve' (14"H x 12"W) $50
Let’s face it; we’re living in a wasteful time. I’m not going to get preachy, but given the opportunity I’ll certainly do my part where I can, since I’m a firm believer that every little bit helps. Coopersong is no exception, with their line of bags and accessories crafted from all-natural, organic, and re-purposed materials. Founder DeAnna Cooper creatively utilizes recycled bicycle inner tubes (that once trekked miles through the Colorado mountains) as the handles on all of her bags. She also features other reclaimed items such as baseball leather, as well as buttons and buckles from the 1940’s.
I happen to love the Mid-Hipster Bag pictured, which would make the perfect ‘un-diaper’ diaper bag; better still when paired with the adorable, polka dotted, Mommy Packs, that include an insulated bottle bag and changing pad. There’s also an awesome retro-print Stroller Bag in a pattern called ‘Women,’ for those of you who prefer a true diaper bag. For kids both young and…not so young (that’s you), be sure to check out the insulated Eco Lunch Bag, that comes in your choice of what seems like a skillion different fabrics – stupid cute!
Now for the best part; if you happen to be in the Los Angeles area this coming weekend, Coopersong is having a trunk show*, with prices ranging from $3 to $90, including numerous styles and items not pictured on their website! Not only will you get the first up-close look at the Fall/Winter 2009 collection, there will be snacks, door prizes and a play area for your little ones, so you can SHOP. IN. PEACE. For those of you not in the L.A. area, L.A. Stylist Mom is giving away a $25 Coopersong gift certificate! To enter, simply visit the Coopersong website, choose your favorite item, and then leave a comment** on this post telling us what it is – that’s it! Hope to see you at the show, and if not, be sure to tell them I sent you!
*The Coopersong Trunk Show will be held on Friday, November 6th, from 1PM-7PM, and on Sunday, November 8th, from NOON-4PM. Please call 310.415.8474 for location and details.
**All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday November 11th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail on Thursday November 12th, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom Friday November 13th. Open to U.S. residents only.

Hazel & Harlow Petite Antiqued 'Heart Of Gold' Pendant $75
Hazel & Harlow 'A Rose Is A Rose' Gold Carved Ring $150
Hazel & Harlow Antiqued Horseshoe Earrings $95
So pretty and delicate and a teensy bit quirky, Hazel & Harlow feels like a throwback to an old fashioned and more romantic time; not unlike a treasure you would be thrilled to discover in your grandmother’s jewelry box – your very cool grandmother, mind you. In a season that’s dominated by in-your-face statement pieces, Hazel & Harlow is like a floral scented breath of fresh air. I also happen to think that there’s nothing sexier than wearing a teeny mini pendant that beckons others to come closer to check it out for themselves (*wink-wink*).
Hazel & Harlow’s ‘Heart Of Gold’ necklace is crafted of 24K gold vermeil with an 18″ chain. The heart itself is etched with a star motif, each inset with a tiny round topaz stone – simple, beautiful, perfect…could be yours! In addition to a generous 30% off site-wide discount from now through November 3rd (simply enter code LASTYLIST09), we’ll be giving away a Petite ‘Heart Of Gold’ Pendant worth $75 to one lucky reader!
If you’d like to enter for a chance to win, all you have to do is sign up to become an L.A. Stylist Mom Facebook Fan (if you haven’t already). Then be sure leave us a comment on this post letting us know that you did – that’s it! Good luck…
*All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway on Wednesday November 4th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail on Thursday November 5th, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom Friday November 6th. Open to U.S. residents only.

Although I exist in a world rife with dudes (and therefore the requisite dude duds), it doesn’t keep me from occasionally longing to dream up a tiny outfit that includes a dress or two; enter these shimmering ‘Black Tie’ leggings from Angela Frost’s ‘Flutter By’ collection, and boy (girl?) do I ever heart them!
The fall fashion season is lousy with sequins, and apparently not just for grown-ups. These leggings are cool and edgy, yet at the same time mange to remain sweet, unlike some other ‘big girl-turned-little girl’ fashion I’ve seen. I’m also loving the ‘Zippity Doo Da’ version, which come in five delicious colors with names like ‘Tang’ (a juicy orange), and a yummy shade of green called ‘Sour Apple,’ complete with trompe l’oeil ‘lace.’ An added plus? Everything in Angela Frost’s collection is locally made – sewn, dyed, and printed in a single factory located in sunny Southern California.
Even though it’s most likely chilly where you are, now is your chance to win a little slice of SoCal. We’re giving away a pair of ‘Black Tie’ leggings to one lucky little girl (a $45 value), just in time for the holidays! All you have to do to enter, is sign up to become a fan of L.A. Stylist Mom on Facebook, leaving a comment on this post letting us know that you did. The winner will be announced here, on Thursday, October 29th. Good luck!
*All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway, on Wednesday October 28th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, and notified via e mail on Thursday October 29th. Open to U.S. residents only.

'Stiruppz' $25 Per Set of Two
Tres Leches cake…..traffic…..people who are late…..bunchy jeans…..THINGSICANTSTAND!!!! Ding, ding, ding! Correct. I’ve always said that it’s the little things that make me the happiest, and hallelujah, Stiruppz are no exception. There’s nothing worse than wearing an outfit that you adore, only to have to continually bend over and re-tuck your jeans into your boots all night. Not to mention? It just looks plain sloppy when they’re all bunched up around your knees. Enter Stiruppz. Being that it is the season of the boot, the brainchild of Arlington, Virginia bartenders Jenn Crittenden and Lisa Church hasn’t arrived a moment too soon.
Since it was finally boot weather in L.A. this past weekend, I got to try them out for myself. It took me a few times to adjust my jeans to the proper length (but maybe because I’m a total spaz, since it’s not that deep), but once they were in place it was dreamy, and my jeans DID. NOT. MOVE. My Stiruppz created a smooth line, and more importantly were comfortable. (This being a huge deal for me, especially when I’m PMS-ing and want to rip any remotely uncomfortable item immediately off my person.)
You’ll have to tell me what you think, because now is your chance to win your very own pair of Stiruppz and see for yourself! All you have to do to enter, is leave a comment on this post describing the crappiest method with which you’ve tried to secure your jeans within your boots…rubber bands? Tucked into your socks, perhaps? BTDT. Let me know…
*All comments must be received by the end of the giveaway, on Tuesday October 20th, at 11:59 EST. The winner will be chosen at random, notified via e mail, and announced on L.A. Stylist Mom, Thursday October 22nd. Open to U.S. residents only.

Suede Ruffle Tote Bag in 'Asphalt' $598
Santos Snake Clutch in 'Hunter Green' $320
Mesi Clutch in Black $170
Fall is in the air! Well, not here, but somehow my body is still attuned to that ‘now it’s September and school has started so bust out the cozy clothes’ schedule. Fortunately for us, so is Felix Rey. You might know F.R. from their fantastic collaboration with Target last spring (one of the best, in my opinion), but I’ve been a longtime fan of their edgy, girly, sensibility; I especially love that their stuff doesn’t look like everything else.
The Fall Collection is no exception, full of luxe ruffles and bows, and sumptuous textures like suede and snakeskin. They’ve taken their signature feminine style, and toughened it up a bit with gorgeous fall colors like ‘Asphalt’ (chocolate brown), and a deep, rich shade called ‘Hunter Green.’ Although the Suede Ruffle Tote is available in both, for those of you who prefer a bright splash of color, never fear – the stunning Santos Snake Clutch also comes in a dazzling shade called ‘Amethyst.’ (My personal fave!)
The best news? Not only will you receive 20% off at Felix Rey from now until October 7th with code FRLASM20? We’re also giving away this fabulous Mesi Clutch (pictured above) worth $170, to one lucky reader! I own one in Hot Pink ‘Ikat,’ lined in a heavy leopard print grosgrain, and I’m not sure if I’ve ever loved anything more. To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post, letting me know what topics you’d like to see more of on L.A Stylist Mom. That’s it! Looking forward to hearing from you, and good luck!
