Bugaboo RED A Stroller with Cause-Ravit's Stroller of The Month!
NoMi Boutique owner Ravit Brenner was very inspired to hear about the Bugaboo RED campaign. Therefore she decided to carry them. You can order yours today at: www.shopnomi.com/bugaboo But shop soon as this is a limited edition.
Be a do-good mom with Bugaboo's (RED) stroller and accessories. Supermodel and mother of three Natalia Vodianova has teamed up with Bugaboo and (RED) to help eliminate HIV/AIDS in Africa.
One percent of all Bugaboo revenue goes to the Global Fund. When asked why she'd collaborated on the special photo shoot for the (BUGABOO) RED campaign (for no pay!), Natalia stated, "I was keen to work with Bugaboo, as they feel passionately about helping mothers and babies around the world ... and this is a powerful message to tell on Mother's Day."
Natalia's glamorous life is a far cry from her poor upbringing in Russia. In a recent interview, she revealed that, at age 11, she started working in her family's grocery store to help support her family and mentally disabled sister. Natalia sees her rough childhood as motivation to do good in the world.
To see pictures of the shoot taken by photographer Mary McCartney (Sir Paul's daughter!) -- and to learn more about the campaign to fight HIV/AIDS in Africa -- go to Bugaboo.com.

Ravit's Modern Nursery Design Tips! ECO NURSERY
1. Tread Lightly On The World They Will Inherit: Use natural materials, mix local and used goods with the new Italian sofa you must have, bring nature indoors with plants, water or stones and turn off lights and appliances when not in use.
2. Take a Holistic Approach: Good design doesn’t stop at furniture and wallpaper. Add meaning to your child’s room with family photos that reinforce their larger support system, examples of their school artwork so that they always feel creative, something from nature so they imagine the world at large, and something inspiring that represents their dreams for their future.
3. Have it Both Ways: With today’s trend for children’s furniture with a more contemporary or bespoke aesthetic you can create a room that is both fun and soothing for a child and in line with your personal design preferences. With companies like Duc Duc, Nurseryworks, and Netto Collection, contemporary options are dominating and redefining the juvenile category. Wall murals and playful rugs, collections of prints and piles of toys, all look better with this cleaner aesthetic. If you are more traditional you might like a shaker style in natural wood that can beautifully straddle the border between modern and traditional, depending on how you outfit the rest of the room.
4. Paint With Love: The Volatile Organic Compounds found in most conventional latex paints break down or vaporize, and off-gas into the atmosphere. Some VOC’s are suspected carcinogens while others are only confirmed to contribute to poor indoor air quality and respiratory problems. Others still are suspected to contribute to causes of global warming. I use Zero-VOC options such as Benjamin Moore Eco Spec and Aura, Glidden’s Spread 2000 and Safecoat, as well as milk and clay based paints (available through www.annasova.com).
5. Quality and Safety Go Hand in Hand: Quality is worth saving up for, especially in children’s rooms because they are bound to abuse furniture but also benefit the most from its quality and safety. The world of non-toxic, sustainable children’s furniture is rapidly expanding and there are so many beautiful options, especially in the contemporary realm. A few of our reliable favorites are Argington, Oeuf and Duc Duc. These designer brands often feature thoughtful touches such as safety hinges and natural woods.
6. Go Organic: Growing babies’ bodily systems are still forming and are most sensitive to the toxins and off-gases emitted from many conventional products. For crib bedding. www.shopnomi.com/bedding
7. Go With Your Parental Instinct: When shopping for your child’s room it is a safe bet to come from intuition and love. Over-thinking a lamp or a dresser is a waste of time because chances are you will end up with the first one that caught your eye. This principle changes slightly when shopping with an older child whose opinion ultimately matters because their tastes are likely to be ever-evolving and they haven’t mastered intuition yet. Stick to basics and let them express their love of horses through a print or a set of sheets rather than a wall mural that cannot be changed without great effort.
8. Work With a Pro: What better time to pamper and treat yourself than when you are pregnant? Working with a professional interior designer can be fun, educational and very rewarding. Not only with you save yourself stress, work and precious time but you can also end up with a nuanced, thoughtful room that reflects your tastes for art and good design. NoMi Boutique have professional interior designers ready to help you out.
9. Have Fun and Take Your Time: Being a new or expecting parent is bound to be stressful, however it can also be fun and a great time to explore. What are your values? How do you want to decorate your living space now and in the future? Is being eco-conscious important to you? Is saving up for high end contemporary furniture a new goal for the year?

Ouef New Colors
Like the contours of its namesake, Oeuf Furniture (which means “egg” in French, pronounced like the "uff" in stuff) is about simple, clean design applied to the necessities of a well-equipped nursery. Oeuf's™ founders and designers, Sophie Demenge and Michael Ryan, are a French-American husband-and-wife team based in Brooklyn, New York. Oeuf™ was created when Sophie and Michael became first-time parents in 2002. As part of a new generation of design-conscious and environmentally-aware parents, they realized they had to redesign everything themselves to merge their existing esthetics with traditional nursery design. They believe strongly that while babies don't need many items, they do need some essential pieces. Oeuf's™ mission is to make those essentials practical and stylish, without compromising quality and safety - their top priority. Oeuf™ is Sophie and Michael's second business venture together. Their first, R+D Design (established in 1999), manufactures furniture, ceramics, and accessories for the home. Shop Ouef at www.shopnomi.com/ouef

Modern luxury for you and your child. Order Monte Porducts at www.shopnomi.com/monte
Introducing Oilo
Though not an actual word, Oilo’s roots are steeped in the Hawaiian words, "lio" (small sprout) and "ho’oilo" (the cool, rainy season).
Every autumn, the Hawaiian sun weakens and tropical trade winds usher in magnificent storms that blanket the islands in a cool, cleansing rain. It’s not beach weather. It’s curl up on the sofa with a good book weather. It’s wrap your baby up tight and rock her to sleep in the moonlight weather. Mostly, it’s about sitting back, relaxing, and enjoying the serenity of life.
That is why Oilo exists. They’re about turning your nursery into the most comfortable, clean, and carefree sanctuary in your home. Because a more enjoyable nursery means a more constant and enduring bond between you and your baby — or, as they like to say, your little sprout. Order Oilo at www.shopnomi.com/oilo
