After a very generous stretch of unseasonably mild weather in New York, the freezing cold is here (sigh). Rather than pretend I live in LA, I have to take winter seriously this year since I have a new-ish baby to keep warm. Thankfully I found a new stroller blanket from 7 A.M. Enfant that feels like the coziest puffer coat and can still be used when it finally does get warmer again.

Since strollers are the main mode of transport for us city moms, I make sure whatever is attached to buggy is not only functional but looks good, too. Last winter I bundled my older son in the Blanket 212 Evolution from the stroller blanket geniuses over at 7 A.M. Enfant. But their latest launch, the Baby Shield, not only wraps my 8-month-old up in warmness, it also comes with an additional lightweight cover so I can use it into spring as well as in the fall.
This is definitely a high end stroller blanket, made especially for those of us who will want to use it all year long. What really makes the Baby Shield different (besides 3 gorgeous colors) is its adaptability. It comes with two zippered covers--one for very cold weather and one for those days when it's not freezing but you still need a jacket.
The faux down filled covers attach super easily to all strollers and car seats. What's also cool about the Baby Shield is that you can use the covers alone, just as blankets. I love the drawstring that makes the blanket extra snuggly. And while I love the idea of the hood, I found that all it did was capsize on my little guy, covering his face.
My favorite thing is that I can dress my baby in less layers and just rely on the warmth of the blanket. As most moms know, less layers means less of a chance that you have to deal with fussy fits. Always a good thing. -Melissa
The new Baby Shield stroller blanket can be found in boutiques near you, or online at 7AMenfant.com.
Congratulations to Megan N! She and her baby will be looking extra-cool in this cool weather with their new 7 A.M Enfant Baby Shield.
