Posh Baby Couture: 2010

I AM Princess Tiana!!!

I watched Princess and the Frog for the first time last night! I had to dry away the tears throughout most of the movie, felt like I was watching a movie about myself. I was going to retire my Princess Tiana themed set at the end of this month. After watching the movie, I feel so blessed to have made so many sets for so many little girls (kinda like the momma at the beginning of the movie)... I'm also that girl (Tiana) who's always working, never having time to have fun.. so focused on a dream.. Like the song she sang in the movie, "I'm almost there"...

Yesterday was one of those days, that I wondered if Posh is what I'm supposed to be doing with my life. I work so hard, I often wonder if what I do makes a difference at all..I was taken aback by the irony of the similiarity of Tiana's story to how I grew up, I now see that it is no mistake that The Princess Tiana themed set is my best seller. God definelty has a way of smiling on us. I'm so thankful to God for using me through Posh.. Even if its in just a small way. I'm just gonna keep dreaming..the same as I did when I was a little girl. Anything is possible if you believe and trust in God.

For those of you who may not know, I grew up in the lower ninth ward of New Orleans, LA, moving to the Florida projects at the age of 10. I dreamed of owning a NOLA mansion as a little girl. St. Charles Ave, in New Orleans boast the most magnificent homes I'd ever seen. To-date, I still dream of living like a Princess in one of those old-world NOLA mansions! A girl can dream rt :)

Tea @ Harrod's in London (my Princess Day)

I've come a long way since those days I looked out of the window of our second floor apartment in the projects, dreaming past the clouds of what I would one day become. I'm still a work in progress, but by God's grace I AM that Princess that I always dreamed of being!

That You Would bless me indeed!

The Prayer of Jabez

Posh last night @ White Night Light as a guest of Lady Bugs and Dragonflies

And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,

"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your hand would be with me,
and that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."
So God granted him what he requested.
1 Ch 4:10

God has blessed me and Posh beyond imagine! Our territory is constantly expanding, and I was gently reminded last night of this prayer and how fitting it is as I watch Posh grow. I LOVE YOU LORD! and I am so THANKFUL for answered prayers!

Ladybugs and Dragonflies is a trendy kids boutique that also offers Diva and Princess Birthday Party's. Posh is trilled to offer our tutus there.

Hair products for baby's hair?

I've been asked a few times about what I use on my hair and my nieces hair. I'll start by saying, I'm one of the worst when it comes to combing/styling hair lol! I love natural hair and am against 100 million puffs with rubber bands and 18million bow-retts! Sorry for the spelling.. that's how we said it growing up. I know that many afro-american moms are gonna hate me for saying that, but it's just my opinion.

I think my nieces hair is the cutest when its in a big puff, maybe two.. with cute bows, or just let down with a headband. I seldom plat/braid their hair... I think its adorable in a big curly puff! My sister sometimes hates me for doing this because I don't "comb" their hair.. but o-well! lol She's slowly adopted the same philosophy :)

My nieces April 09'

If I told you what I use "blue magic" grease and water! Or Pantene (the cheapest, thickest conditoner I can fine) I'm sure you'd have me jailed by the hair-stylist Police of America.

I do however luv the Miss Jessies line of products and have used their line on my hair in the past.

My questions to mommies are:

WHAT DO YOU USE ON THE PRECIOUS HAIR OF YOU LITTLE PRINCESS/WHAT TEXTURE IS HER HAIR
HOW SOON SHOULD PRODUCT BE APPLIED (newborn, 12mo?)
HOW OFTEN WOULD YOU APPLY PRODUCT (everyday, once a week...)
DO YOU LOVE IT
HAVE YOU TRIED OTHER PRODUCTS THAT DID/DIDN'T WORK

I thought this would be a great way to share with moms that may be looking for a bit of direction on what to do with their baby's hair.
