Welcome to this week's issue -- By the Sea. While on our short hiatus, we had the sincere pleasure of attending the first Big Apple Baby & Kids Bash Boom Boom Room event which brought  Celebrity A-list Moms & Dads, top editors, stylists, and the trendiest New York boutique owners face to face with premier baby and kid brands. 

The Boom Boom Room was created by Glamour Guru Jayneoni Moore as a marketing gifting suite designed to give top children’s brands access to major celebrity parents and the media.  This event benefitted the Jayneoni Moore Children's Fund, a non-profit organization established in 2001 as a voice of appeal for children suffering from poverty, low income and disease. The Bash was attended by Actress Constance Zimmer, Actress-Comedian Molly Shannon, Actress Melina Zovich, Actor Zack Levi, Actor Robert Funaro, Comedian Chuck Nice, and NY Mets Catcher Brian Schneider.  Media giants such as O Magazine, People, CNBC, ABC News, and yours truly were also in attendance. We can't wait to feature many of the cutting edge and hip products offered by the exhibitors of this event!

For this week, we hope you enjoy our picks for your seaside retreats this summer.

Baby will be oh so stylish and even cooler, philanthropically that is, in this beautiful Shoshonna Bathing Suit from www.bestandcompany.com. All proceeds from this exclusive gingham swimsuit go directly to benefit the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Cover up baby... it's sunny outside! Another fabulous look from one of our favorite designers... the Embroidered Tunic by www.cabanalife.com. They offer the most stylish way to keep baby's sun protected in all of their 50+ UV Protection clothing.

Listen to the surf, enjoy the cool ocean breeze beneath your market umbrella, and read your little one Secret Seahorse by Stella Blackstone and Clare Beaton from www.growingupbarefoot.com this summer. This beautifully illustrated, hardcover book is sure to delight your little marine biologists.

Whether you are seaside in Newport, on the Cape, or in the Hamptons this summer, dress your little man up in the coolest yet classic swimtrunks we know and love! Our favorite this season are the Vilebrequin White Sealife Junior Swimtrunks from www.vilebrequinonlinestore.com. And just in case you were wondering... they have matching ones for Dads too -- a great gift idea for Father's Day!

We hope you've enjoyed this week's issue and can't wait to share our top picks for Father's Day with you next week. Until then, enjoy this beautiful season and please remember to always put sunscreen on your children whenever they are outdoors. Have a great week everyone!
