At only eight weeks old, Rebecca Gayheart and Eric Dane’s daughter Billie Beatrice was already a world traveler: The new parents recently brought their newborn along on a trip to Europe.

“We went to Italy [and] France and Billie came with us,” Dane told PEOPLE Moms & Babies at the Chrysalis 9th Annual Butterfly Ball in Los Angeles.

“She’s a great traveler. She’s fantastic on the plane.”

Parenthood isn’t without surprises for the first-time parents. As a new mom, the “very emotional” Gayheart, 38, admits, “I thought I would be a much more relaxed mom, but I’m kind of micro-managing everything!”

Are we seeing double?

On June 5, we spotted Jessica Alba looking super stylish in a boho-chic peasant dress, Melinda Maria 18K gold-plated Mini Pod bangle ($68) and black combat boots on a brunch date with her little cutie Honor, 2, and husband Cash Warren (not pictured) in Beverly Hills.

And just three days later, we spied Maggie Gyllenhaal — in the exact same dress paired with Worishofer‘s 251 sandals in red ($57) — strolling N.Y.C.’s West Village after picking up daughter Ramona, 3½, (check out her adorable Stella McCartney for GapKids crochet romper!) from school.

Turns out, these fashionable moms are wearing Isabel Marant‘s Leal Denim dress ($695). Perfect for breezy summer days, you can wear it alone or as a tunic top.

TELL US: What do you think of Jessica and Maggie’s mommy style?

Actor/comedian Bill Bellamy struck a pose with wife Kristen and their kids, Bailey Ivory-Rose, 6½, and Baron, 3½, at the 4th Annual Kidstock Music and Arts Festival Sunday in Los Angeles.

The kids already have their own definite opinions on what to wear, Kristen tells Baby Couture.

“Bailey is a Leo with definite opinions about everything, especially her wardrobe,” she laughs.

“She’s just come out of a ‘skirt only’ phase and she rarely will wear pants. She loves to layer. It’s so funny how they have their own style so young.”

Peter Facinelli: Luca’s Not My Biggest Fan

Although many devoted Twilight fans are either Team Edward or Team Jacob, Dr. Carlisle Cullen — played by actor Peter Facinelli — has developed a following of his own.

“When I do charity events and the fans show up, I get some screaming there,” Facinelli, 36, tells USA Today.

But one girl that won’t be spotted among the crowd? Luca Bella, 12, the actor’s eldest daughter with wife Jennie Garth.

“She just rolls her eyes and thinks, ‘Oh, my God, my dad’s a vampire. How embarrassing,’” Facinelli jokes, adding that he doesn’t take her lack of enthusiasm to heart.

“I’m sure even [President Barack] Obama‘s daughters say, ‘Oh, my God, my dad’s the president. How embarrassing.’”

We all know that securing all car passengers — including mini ones — is super important. So in honor of National Safety Month (June!), we chatted with Regal Lager‘s president, Bengt Lager, and marketing coordinator, Elisabeth Bergöö to get their thoughts on car seat safety.

According to the Regal Lager team, about three in four car seats are incorrectly installed. But when mounted properly, they can reduce the risk of death by 71 percent for infants, and 54 percent for children ages 1 to 4. That’s why it’s key to set everything up properly from the beginning.
