It’s about time!

Le Top — which has been manufacturing stylish, unique playwear for kids and babies since 1978 — has just launched a shopping site and we’re beyond smitten.

Easy-to-navigate, the e-shop features the brand’s whimsical mix ($10 – $62) of dresses, pants, leggings, tops, jackets, sweaters and accessories including standouts like the western-style denim dress and tights ($52) and the doggie-hooded brushed terry jacket ($34 – 36). They even have cute match-ups for boy and girl twins.

Also impressive are the company’s ready-made gift bundles, which make buying for new moms so much easier. Wrapped in a custom gift box with a handwritten card, it’s just the right personal touch.

Plus, you can always find fresh looks — the company updates stock every three to four weeks. And to ensure the clothing is soft, comfy and safe for sensitive young skin, the brand designs and manufactures its own original prints and fabrics.

Added bonus: All orders include free ground shipping through Aug. 22.

He may perform for thousands of fans with ease, but when it comes to impending fatherhood, Ne-Yo admits the thought has him a wee bit on edge.

“I’m terrified; I’m gonna be all the way honest,” the Grammy-winning star, who is expecting his first child with girlfriend Monyetta Shaw in January, tells CNN.

“I’ve never seen myself as a father. I knew eventually I would get married and have kids and all of that stuff.”

As the parents of 19-month-old twin girls, Jerry O’Connell and Rebecca Romjin have double trouble: the “terrible twos” times two.

“I think my children are actually worse than the terrible twos,” a beleaguered O’Connell, 36, joked to PEOPLE at Wednesday’s TCA presentation in Beverly Hills, Calif.
