Naomi Watts Gives Us a Sneak-Peek of Target’s New Liberty of London Line!

She may have two boys — Alexander ‘Sasha’ Pete, 2 ½, and Samuel Kai, 14 months — of her own, but Naomi Watts hit the girls’ racks at the Liberty of London for Target pop-up store launch on Wednesday in New York to shop for her 10-month-old niece.

“I’ve bought all sorts of dresses for her,” the actress told PEOPLE’s Celebrity Baby Blog. “Pretty dresses and a bikini — it makes me really want to have another baby, a girl, so I can dress her up a bit!”

At the event, Watts — and a select group of shoppers — browsed everything from cute mini sundresses and rainboots to elegant teapots and canisters in the signature floral prints British-based Liberty of London is known for.

“[As a kid growing up in London], I would go along Regent Street and look at the windows and dream about their fabrics,” Naomi recalled. “The patterns are so feminine and pretty.”

The fashion and home collection (which features 25 unique floral patterns in bright hues of pink, orange, purple, yellow and green) is not only beautiful, it’s extremely affordable. Prices range from $4 to $200.

We love the infant bedding set ($100, above middle) — it will brighten up any nursery. The pint-size bathing suits ($10 to $12) for little girls are also adorable.

And there are chic finds for mom too, with easy-to-wear tiered, off-the-shoulder and shift dresses that work equally well for a day at the beach or for a sunny stroll at the park.

The complete line hits stores and Target.com this Sunday. Click here for more information.

Look Out World: A Fun Travel Book & DVD for Kids!

Courtesy of Look Out World

Now you — and your littles ones — can discover the Big Apple without leaving your house thanks to interactive travel book and DVD, Look Out World: Here I Come! (New York) ($22).

Tour guides Otto (little boy), Blink (teddy bear) and Casey (suitcase) take you to visit all the major landmarks including Central Park, the Bronx Zoo, the Statue of Liberty and the Museum of Natural History.

You’ll also get to experience the city’s every day sights (busy sidewalks and streets) and sounds (honking cabs, moving subway cars) through bright and playful animation. There’s even a cute theme song!

We loved the 36 page activity book, which includes everything from a pizza recipe to instructions on how to build a mini Empire State Building. It’s a great teaching tool. While your child is busy exploring, he’ll learn how to recognize shapes and colors and how to count.

We can’t wait for another adventure. Hurry up and join in! Next up is London, Paris and Shanghai.

Whittle/Splash News Online; Xposure

Although Angel Iris, 2 ½ , was the first in the family to rock the edgy hairstyle — here she is with her full-on mohawk last summer — mom Melanie Brown and big sis Phoenix Chi, 11, are now on board as well.

On Tuesday, we spotted the former Spice Girl and her eldest daughter — plus their matching side-shaved haircuts — at the opening night of musical CATS in Hollywood.

Melanie also showed off her new haircut while out shopping with her youngest on Feb. 22 in Los Angeles.

Bugaboo Debuts New and Improved Bee!

Courtesy of Bugaboo

Moms are buzzing about the newly redesigned Bugaboo Bee ($650, left) — and for good reason.

The original Bee ($529) — which is the ride of choice for celeb babies like Levi McConaughey and Violet Grohlis known for its smooth ride.

But the updated version boasts some noteworthy improvements. And with the increase in price, this makes all the difference.

Topping our list is the new wider backrest. Not only does it simultaneously adjust with the stroller’s sun canopy and 5-point harness, but you can move it into four different positions.

The stroller also features a comfy, ergonomically shaped seat that easily turns to face you or the world.

The height-adjustable handlebars, redesigned wheels and new brake system are also impressive.

With all these changes, Bugaboo made sure to keep the compact fold — one of our favorite features from the original.

There are also lots of handy add-ons including a reversible bamboo seat liner ($60) and an extendible sun canopy ($70).

Look out for the new Bee in April! Check here for news.

1 Trend, 3 Ways: Stylish Maternity Maxi Dresses!

With spring right around the corner, celeb moms-to-be are itching to whip out their warm weather duds. We recently spotted Amy Adams (below left) in a grey maxi T-shirt dress and a black cardigan while out and about with pal Emily Blunt.

Flowy and easy-to-wear, maxi dresses are a maternity must-have because they’re roomy enough for growing bellies. Plus, there are loads of styles to choose from.

Before giving birth to her baby girl, Rebecca Gayheart rocked a boho-inspired strapless version. And, Gisele Bundchen — who had son, Benjamin, in December — went for one with pretty embroidered detail.

With so many celebs sporting baby bumps, we’re sure to see our fair share of fab floor-length frocks this season.

Solid

Splurge: Perfect for nursing moms, Mayreau’s Contrast Tube Maternity/Nursing Maxi Dress ($133) is a two-for-one deal. Extra soft and comfy, you can wear it before and after baby arrives.

Affordable: We love the flattering neckline on Katie Ann Couture’s Katie maxi dress in kelly green ($43, left). Plus, the bright color screams warm weather!

Bargain Buy: Old Navy’s Maternity Tiered Jersey Maxi Tank dress ($20) works well whether you’re running errands or taking the kids to the playground.

Print

Splurge: Japanese Weekend’s Reversible Maternity Maxi dress ($156) may be pricey, but you get more bang for your buck. One side sports a bold, colorful pattern while the other is solid black.

Affordable: With two babies under her belt, Nicole Richie’s a maternity style pro. That’s why we’re loving her line for a pea in the pod, especially the vintage-inspired Spaghetti Strap Smocked Maternity dress ($74) — it works day or night!

Bargain Buy: Totally versatile, you can wear Chiarakruza Maternity’s Floral Print Sleeveless dress ($35, left) with or without the straps. New mom (and maxi dress fan) Rebecca Gayheart showed off her bump in the taupe version.

Embellished

Splurge: Going somewhere fancy? Try Olian Maternity Kora Bead Trim dress ($147). Made of a soft poly/spandex blend fabric, it’s ruched in all the right places — around the bustline, under the belly — for a really comfy fit.

Affordable: Forget about your bump! All eyes will be on the beautiful gold beaded neckline of ASOS Maternity Embellishment Front Maxi dress ($94, left).

Bargain Buy: With its chic beading and stylish shawl wrap, Motherhood Maternity’s Sleeveless Hardware Detail Maternity Dress ($40) is a great option for a date with the hubby.

Rock a Bye Baby! BabyBjörn Debuts New Organic Bouncer

Courtesy of BabyBjörn

A good old-fashioned rocking calms down even the fussiest of babies.

That’s why we’re loving BABYBJÖRN’s new Babysitter Balance Organic ($166), which was released last fall.

Made with organic cotton, this super cool bouncer doesn’t run on batteries — it’s powered by your baby’s natural motion. Anything from a kick to a head bob will get it moving.

Safe for tots from 8 to 29 lbs., it also features three comfy positions (play, rest and sleep).

And don’t worry about milk or juice stains. The fabric’s reversible and machine washable. You can even buy a plush terrycloth cover for added protection.

It also folds down nicely for travel or storage.

Want to ramp up the fun? Check out the colorful wooden toy bar ($40). It’s guaranteed to keep your baby engaged for hours.

Courtesy of Fit2BMom

Keeping active while pregnant is important, but it’s not easy to find comfy workout clothes that accommodate a growing belly. Now all the pregnant ladies can get their exercise on in style thanks to Fit2Bmom’s stretchy, easy-to-wear separates.

Even celeb mom-to-be Tiffani Thiessen — who has the active kit ($118) — is a fan! She recently tweeted about how much she loves the line’s “amazing” fabric and fit.

We love the company’s new spring collection. The polished Long Sleeve Wrap Top ($79) is cut like a blazer, but feels super soft. The RoundNeck Tee ($49, above) is another favorite. It features a super supportive built-in shelf bra with side-shirring.

Plus, all bottoms (shorts, pants and skirts) come with wide waistbands so you can comfortably wear them under or over your bump.

Bonus: Each piece is made with a Supplex fabric blend that really holds its shape, so you can rock them even after the baby comes.

Shop the full collection here.

Lil sis Shiloh may be comfy in pants and sneaks, but Zahara’s all about the girlie glam!

While out with dad Brad Pitt in Paris recently, the stylish 5-year-old wore a black alice + olivia by Stacey Bendet Bow Back Double Breasted Coat ($221) and black knit dress paired with bright striped tights from H&M’s Sonia by Sonia Rykiel line and gold weaved ballet flats.

To complete her fun look, she topped it off with a colorful knit pom pom hat.
