Maternal America is at Jellybeans


While we were at fall market in Atlanta, we wandered into an upscale showroom filled with very stylish maternity fashions. We fell in love with a line filled with wrinkle free knits and flattering tops and dresses. Of course, we went out on another limb and now carry Maternal America - clothing for the mom to be- at http://www.shopjellybeans.com/. We think that you will love the easy to wear pull over comfy pieces that can take you from work, to dinner, to a long weekend getaway. An adorable party dress is arriving just in time for the holidays.

New Fall Potato Saks at Jellybeans


Potato Saks is one of the freshest and fun looks around. The mom designers begin with a simple dress pattern that is lined and very well made, then they add the craziest, funniest appliques that you have ever seen. Our first arrival is this poodle swing top and ruffle pant set. We think that it will be sooo cute on your toddler. All of the size 3 are already sold out, so don't tarry on this one.

Fall Market - Part 2




While we are at market in Atlanta, we usually save half of one day to snoop around for new and innovative gift ideas. We have found some delightful products this way, and we have also had some good laughs. My baby daughter is a student at FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology) in New York. She meets us for every market and loves the adventure of searching for new products. She is pictured trying out a new bouncy ball that lets you rock your baby to sleep while exercising away those extra pounds and modeling a wild new diaper bag. Needless to say, these products are not in our store, but in a few years they may be best sellers and we will have missed the boat-or not.

Fall Market 2008


We just wanted to give you an idea of how we buy for the upcoming season at Jellybeans. In January, we traveled to the Altanta Apparel Mart, to buy our inventory for fall and holiday 2008. It is usually a three day trip and at the end of each day we are sooo tired that we try to calculate our expenditures before passing out, sometimes without dinner. We are at the market mid morning- I am not a morning person-but we stay until we are kicked out each evening. During the day, we visit the different showrooms and see the new lines from our favorite designers. We buy both trendy and traditional clothing, therefore we are all over the market. As we look at new pieces in each line, the showroom rep displays the entire collection on a grid and we try to use time as efficiently as possible-usually in about three seconds-we give each piece a yeah or a nay. We are always looking for new and innovative designs and clothing that you will not be able to resist. Pictured are our selections from the pink cocoa collection by Peaches n Cream which will be arriving later this month.

Great Gift Idea - Zoobie Pets


Zoobie Pets are one of the favorite gifts at Jellybeans. The fun safari animal collection includes a hippo, giraffe, lion, crocodile, and monkey. Each animal has a soft squeezy head for feeling and is three toys in one. The fun pets can be turned into a pillow by unhooking the velcro fasteners. Unzip your Zoobie and discover a plush soft blanket just perfects for naps or car rides. Zoobies are great for day care, trips to grandma's, or rest time at home.

Hagan Is Adorable


My daughter's best friend, Leann, has the most precious baby boy, Hagan Glenn. We all knew that she and her husband would have a cute baby but they outdid themselves. Of course, Hagan has quite a few outfits from http://www.shopjellybeans.com/. This elephant onesie by Letop is one of Leann's favorites. She has collected elephants since childhood and even has a stuffed Ellie that she took to spend the night parties way up into her teenage years-it is quite possible that Ellie was at the hospital when Hagan was born.

The World of Lelli Kelly


I was watching the Disney Channel with my granddaughter Mandy and she became very excited when the Lelli Kelly commercial aired. I could not believe that any three year old would beg for a pair of shoes. She usually has to be bribed to even get shoes on her feet. I knew then that we must have them for the http://www.shopjellybeans.com/. At fall market, we were introduced to the world of Lelli Kelly and could not believe the assortment of styles available. We have tried to select a variety that we think you and your girls will love. Click on this link to choose your favorite Lelli Kelly style.
