Babies eat, sleep and look fabulously cute. Check out our favorite picks for swanky infant attire.
Banding together
For newborn girls, accessories make all the difference. Baby Bling Bows are cloth headbands that appear in almost every color found in a crayon box. The soft and stretchy material is fashionable and functional. Little heads never look squished or uncomfortable. The bows might be the brand’s most popular, but our favorite is the chiffon ruffled headband with floral appliqués. $12, Granola Babies at SoCo, granolababies.com
Stylish slipper
When she was 8 years old, Britt Chapman learned how to sew. Years of crafting, scrapbooking and painting kept the downtown Fullerton resident busy. But when she founded Scooter Booties in 2012, Britt stumbled on an untapped market. Her unisex designs and whimsical patterns make these handmade slippers suitable for boys and girls. The 100 percent vegan, red, Mary Jane booties add a pop of color and keep tiny tootsies warm. $25,

You’re the one-sie
The designers at Aden + Anais perfected the lightweight swaddle blanket and created a better burp cloth. This time the design team re-envisioned an infant essential: the onesie. Aden + Anais’ short-sleeve kimono romper is constructed with the same muslin cotton used for the swaddle blankets. Instead of cramming the baby’s head through a tight-fitting collar, this outfit wraps around the child’s torso and snaps shut – a fashionable solution that makes diaper changes slightly easier. $25, nordstrom.com
Wrapped up
Patchwork quilts with vintage flair, tote bags adorned with Hello Kitty, blankets spotted with superheroes and pouches covered in Disney Tsum Tsum prints – these are a few items from Brea-based seamstress extraordinaire Ann Yoshimitsu. Quilts range from $40 to $220 and totes start at $55. Look for Ann at the Patchwork OC show or at her Etsy shop. etsy.com/shop/itssewann
