Earlier this month Wendy Bellissimo invited a select group of mom and lifestyle bloggers to her home in Southern California for an intimate luncheon and preview of her new Fall collection. Designed exclusively for JC Penney, the line includes exquisite, affordably-priced crib bedding and bath decorating items for babies as well as clothing, footwear, gifts and accessories for newborns to age 24 months.

For style-forward mothers, the iconic Bellissimo needs no introduction. Since 1998, the mom of four turned businesswoman, has been known as an extraordinarily talented baby nursery designer for stylish consumers as well as celebrities like Brooke Shields and Kelly Ripa. I've loved her baby and children's designs since my own kids, now teens, were babies. Today her company, Wendy Bellissimo, has expanded, now offering a full line or gorgeous nursery decor like never before, as well as apparel, diaper bags, baby gear and more.

During the event on a sunny warm day, guests mingled and dined in Bellissimo's backyard while viewing all the new Fall items that are in-store at JC Penney now. Among those attending the garden party launch for the line were friends such as actress Marika Dominczyk, wife of actor Scott Foley from ABC's 'Scandal', who chose pieces for her one year-old son Keller.

The new JCPenney collection enbues the same beauty and quality Wendy Bellissimo is reknowned for, yet is now made accessible to a wider range of consumer with prices ranging from $16 for shoes to $199 for bedding.

About Wendy Bellissimo for JCPenney
Classic and timeless, Wendy Bellissimo's signature style blends beautiful design and practicality to essential products for newborns to todders 24 months. Her new children's collection for JCPenney, boasting elegant, chic designs with boutique-style quality, includes bedding, bath, special occasion apparel, footwear, gifts and accessories with prices starting at just $16.

You're invited to join the social conversation on Twitter with the hashtag #WendyBForJCP as well as follow Wendy Bellissimo and JCPenney on Twitter. The entire collection is available only at JCPenney, both online and in-store.

Seattles Best Coffee #GreatTaste Sweepstakes, $2 Off Grocery Store Coupon and Review

Grab your Seattle's Best Coffee $2 Savings Coupon

It's Sunday. Fall, winter, spring or summer, whatever the season I find few things that are more enjoyable for me than lingering over a cup of hot steaming delicious coffee today on the only day of the week when the pace slows down just a little around here in our busy household of six. 

Monday through Friday, I lament, I just don't have the time to sit down and savor it as much as I'd like. Instead on those crazy weekday mornings, I brew some in the kitchen and then dash out the door to the car with a tall thermos cup full to accompany me on those hectic morning car pool runs driving my teenage triplets to high school. 

As my family, friends and many of you already know, I love coffee and drinking it for me is a priority seven days a week. I drink it many different ways, hot and cold, as espresso, capuccino, black or with a little coffee flavoring, or even just with some half and half cream and no sweetener. I even plead guilty to having a donut or cheese danish with my coffee once in awhile, too, an occasional sweet habit I started back in college when I first started drinking coffee every day.

No matter how I drink it, though, I have just two requirements. My coffee absolutely must be a premium variety and it needs to be fresh brewed (no instant coffee for me), otherwise I've been -- gasp -- known to go without my morning caffeine jolt altogether. 

A rich quality java that immediately comes to mind is the Seattle's Best Coffee that smelled like heaven on earth as I brewed it at home this foggy, peaceful Sunday morning. In fact, I'm sipping some of the Great Taste of Seattle's Best Coffee -- which offers a blend for all coffee lovers -- right now as I write this post. 

If you enjoy top quality home brewed coffee that you can purchase pre ground at your local supermarket as much as I do, give Seattle's Best a try. You really can't lose because the brand always backs its products with a money back guarantee. Plus, right now there's a downloadable $2 off coupon available for you to use the next time you go to the store.
