Amanda de Beaufort, Coos & Ahhs

Amanda de Beaufort's blog Coos & Ahhs is a bevy of new fun products and sweet life moments, made all the more special by Amanda's mom-next-door tone (a very cool mom that is). With a 2-year-old son and a baby girl on the way, Amanda lives in Brooklyn. Her product finds are unique—but usable, practical unique. She shares, "when buying clothes for my child I go on the price per wear calculation. If it is something he can wear all the time and maybe even for more than one season, I'll splurge. Pants and tees, I usually go for more basic pieces mixed with a few fun ones from Bobo Choses or Mini Rodini." As a city mom, Amanda relies on her gear. Top on her list are the UPPAbaby Vista stroller, "a trifecta of infant carriers: Moby Wrap, Baby Bjorn and ErgoBaby are all great for different stages, but if I had to only buy one it would be the Ergo" and Aden + Anais muslin wraps "are amazing for swaddling, as a sun shade or nursing cover and much more." It's not all function-function-function, she added some I'd-love-for-my-new-baby to the list too! SHOP AMANDA'S LIST >

“I have a bit of a red shoe obsession and that doesn't end with baby. These little mocs are both stylish and timeless.”
Handmade Fringe Moccasin Booties
$44.00

“I often refer to as the Hum V of strollers, which can be tricky on subways. But the Vista can take a beating and keep going. The huge basket is also a must for long days in the city.”
Baby Strollers: Rugged and Durable UPPAbaby Vista Strollers
$549.95

“High quality vests like this from Oeuf are a must have. You get so much more mileage out of a vest than other pieces since you can layer, wear year round and they don't grown out of them very fast.”
Oeuf Mae Vest
$78.00

“I believe in the trifecta of infant carries: Moby Wrap, Baby Bjorn and Ergo, but if I had to only buy one it would be this. It is simple, easy on-off, and can carry a baby from birth to, umm, 50 lbs!!?”
ERGObaby Carrier (Black with Camel Lining)
$115.00

“With a new baby on the way all I can do is search out simple, classic pieces. I love these knit leggings. They are luxe without being fussy.”
Flora and Henri Nona Legging
$52.00
