You know those things that you just never see yourself buy or wear? High on my list: a cargo bike (or 'bakfiets' in Dutch), Buffalo platform shoes (they're back, people!), and matching velvet tracksuits with rhinestones (still only for Paris Hilton). And honestly, until recently, I wasn't to keen on adding a baby carrier to my must-buy baby list either. Because no matter how practical some things may be, if they're going to seriously ruin your look of the day, it's a definite mood killer right? :) 

So when I came across the baby carriers from Artipoppe, I was pretty thrilled to revise my opinion! Not only do they have all the practical benefits of a regular carrier (free arms! your little one close to you! the perfect thing to travel with a baby!), they are unusually pretty. The prints range from classic leopard to more exotic patterns, all made from the most luxurious fabrics (mine is a delicious blend of cotton & silk). I paired it with ruffled denim, a loose coat and my new fave loafers, and was super happy with how the look turned out. Don't you just love it when practical & pretty go hand in hand?

What do you think about the baby carrier? You're on board with the pretty version, or you still feel like it'll mess up your outfit? :)
