We’re big fans of Rikshaw Design‘s beautiful, Indian-inspired nursery bedding.
And now that they’ve launched a line of super cute baby clothing, we’re loving them even more.
The collection ($22 to $44) includes everything from loose-fitting kurtas to ruffled bloomers, in the company’s cool hand-block prints.
Our favorite is the comfy baby sack ($44). Made of 100% cotton voile, it keeps your baby cool during warm summer nights. It also sports drawstring ties on the bottom for easy diaper changes.

The look of love!
An expectant Amy Adams beams at fiancé Darren Le Gallo while out fabric shopping in Los Angeles on Friday.
Among the reams of fabric the couple perused? A pink and white paisley print!
Although Adams, 35, hasn’t revealed the sex of her child publicly, she told David Letterman in January that she and Le Gallo had hoped to find out what they were having — but that baby hadn’t cooperated for their big ultrasound.
“I thought about waiting and I just don’t think that’s really my personality,” notes the actress. “It’s not about planning a nursery, it’s more about I just want to know.”

At 49, actress Julianne Moore is comfortable in her own skin.
“I think at my age I’m OK with being where I am in my life,” the Chloe star tells PARADE. The reason for that sense of serenity? Yoga.
“It’s pretty much the only thing I do, believe it or not,” she insists. “Yoga is nice because it gives me time to just zone out.”
All the same, Moore — mom to Caleb, 12, and Liv Helen, 8 next month, with husband Bart Freundlich — admits that “even finding time for yoga is a challenge.”
“Once you have children it is shocking how quickly your day goes,” notes the actress. “I do a lot of that stuff with my kids. If I’m not working it really is just about my family.”
