Inky-Dinky-Do Blog

We interupt this blog for some shopping....

OK I just stumbled on this diaper bag and think it is adorable.  Just had to share!

Cute isn't it!  It is available at Posh Tots

Now if you are needing a highchair that while expensive exudes style we have one for you!

I'm not sure I would let my  child smear carrots on it for the $885 price tag!

But they do say the print is vinyl so I guess it would all just wipe off!

They have several designs and styles.  Worth a look!  Nicole Reid

Of course if you have little boys that love star wars this is the place for you!  I can't imagine any kid not  loving having this bunk bed....

I don't know that you would ever sleep and not just play all night long.  Think they give you free light sabers with the bed purchase?  My Moondrops

Don't worry little ladies there is a cute little bed for you too...

The Emily Bunk Bed awaits complete with a desk.

They even have castle beds and play lofts if mommy and daddy are feeling especially generous!

Bakersfield Showcase House

I was blessed with seeing the Bakersfield Showcase House this morning.  It is amazing.  I met Denise Haddock of Denise Haddock Unique Interior Designs for a quick photo in her showcase room and was lucky enough to meet some of the designers.  We even saw the beautiful pool from executive pools!  Denise designed the den and it feels like you are walking onto a movie set with all the perfect attention to detail.  Be sure to see the attached bath- I love the mirror!   You  might recognize the room when you get there as it was featured on the cover of Bakersfield Life Magazine.

It is definitely worth the $20 that goes to charity for a peek.  Sunday is the last day so don't miss out and plan on a little trip to see this amazing house.  So if you love checking out the model homes, your friends houses and such- see what talented painters, designers and stylists can do when they are turned loose!

Tickets are available at the door just take the shuttle from the corner of Buena Vista and Ming Avenue. No parking allowed at Showcase House.
other policies to keep in mind:
*No Photography allowed.
*No infants or children under 12 will be admitted on the shuttles or property.
*Flat shoes only.
*Cell phones must be turned off while touring.

Bakersfield's Best Kept Secret this Week....

Miss Lili Parker!
A personal shopper and exclusive fashion retailer for some of the mover and shakers in the know around town.

Now I know some of you know who I'm talking about and you all are just shaking your head thinking I can't believe she is telling people.... I am!  You guys have kept this secret WAY too long! 

Lili is just the sweetest person and talk about customer service... heck I think she would have found someone to wax my car while I was shopping if I asked.  With her being so personalized and exclusive you would think she would be stuffy- so not the case.  She is warm, inviting and all the while sharing her expertise. 

So now what does Miss Lili Parker have... CLOTHES... glorious clothes... I mean fashion.  She has a suit that is just business enough, yet sassy enough that I wanted it on the spot knowing I'd have to diet to fit in it- didn't care still want it!  She has fabulous suits for ladies ranging from classy Mother of the Bride, to Southern Mother of the Bride, to Corporate Board room that is all about being a fabulous woman yet professional.  She pointed out the perfect outfit for the next time I'm speaking out of state that wont require me to iron it- love that!  She had two styles of dress (one red, one black) that are the perfect answer to the office party with the husband.  You know just dressy enough, not trying too hard, sexy, but classy and definitely not something everyone else is wearing.  Love it!  She had a brown leather bolero jacket that is screaming to be worn out.  Dresses that are great for that random beach wedding or dinner at the Getty fund raiser.  There were shoes too..... AND she can order TONS of stuff.  So need that perfect outfit for Junior League, Cotillion, Church or special event? She either has it or can order something to your personal style.  Oh, one more fabulous little trait... if she sets you up with a look for a special event and your friend goes to her too- no worries there is no chance you will look alike!  I guess that is her personal shopper coming through!  There is casual stuff too- tons of cute stuff to go with jeans even.  Just so the hubby doesn't feel left out... there are suits for him too.  I happen to have noticed Jeremy Sutton of Morgan Stanley (yes, ladies he was profiled in Bakersfield Life not too long ago) sporting a suit from Miss Lili's little home boutique not too long ago. 

So you simply must call Miss Lili and her husband Larry Parker and set up a consultation.  Mention you are an inky-dinky-do client and enjoy the fact that she will not only help you figure out what looks best on you, but make sure it gets altered if needed to hang perfectly too.  Can't find the time 9-5 don't worry she said she would take care of inky-dinky-do clients after 5pm if needed.  That is pretty cool.  Not sure what might look good on you?  (hey what looked good 3 kids ago might not be the same now!) Lili can help you find your style again.   Who knew that  little old me and all my clients could have access to such a great shopper and stylist! 

Thanks again Lili for such a wonderful time this afternoon and I can't wait to come back!
