I am a big fan of shopping local, whether it be for food, clothing or items for the house. Besides the environmentally friendly aspects of doing so, I like to be able to support the local community with my dollars. If I can get something cute and organic on top of that? Just icing on the cake. Or in this case, the cupcake. Enter Pure and Little. I first heard about Pure and Little from a NJ-based daily email that I subscribe to, which keeps me in the know for local happenings, events, stores and more. As soon as I visited Pure and Little’s site, I was hooked. They were established in 2008 and have everything you’ll need, in an organic way, for your little one. Adorableness abounds … now for the cupcake onesie review.
The GOOD: Made by Kee-Ka, the onesie is made from 100% certified organic cotton and is so soft that you just want to rub your cheek all over it. Exactly what you want against your baby’s skin. Heck, I want it against my skin! The snaps are nickel-free and the onesie arrives in an environmentally-friendly cute little cardboard box. Better still, put a stamp on the box and you can pop it in the mail, a perfect way to surprise your favorite little someone.
The BAD: Like most things organic or environmentally friendly, it’s going to cost a bit more than your average onesie. But you’re getting something more than your average onesie.
MONEY MATTERS: The onesie retails for $24.00 and can be purchased from Pure and Little.
The MOM VERDICT
Cate says: If you know me, you know I am a sucker for cupcakes. While I love to bake, share and eat them, give me a cupcake-themed item for my daughter, and I’m over the top, so you know my eyes lit up as soon as they cast upon this onesie. It is uber-soft and the pink shades are dark but pop. Absolutely adorable, and then some. The onesie has been washed and worn a number of times and it has held up beautifully. The sizing is accurate and the neck is nice and wide to allow for easy-on and easy-off, which makes for a very happy baby. Color us happy, cupcake happy.
