This month, I was honored to learn that my work was included in the Cool Mom Picks and Pinks & Blues 2007 Holiday Gift Guides.
I should note that I was totally oblivious to the concept of "advertorials" (paid features that tend to be constructed to look like objective reviews) before I launched my own design business and Boston Mamas, and truly, the concept depresses me (I don't even want to think about how many things I have purchased in the past based on what I *thought* were real reviews). Anyhow, as such, I run Boston Mamas completely advertorial-free, and kudos to Cool Mom Picks and Pinks & Blues for running features that are completely objective.
Oh, and for full disclosure, these sites are cool enough that I'd happily give them that shout out even if I weren't included in the feature!

We are honored to have you mention US on this blog!
Thank you for mentioning that our reviews are NOT paid advertisements. It upsets us, also, when paid advertisements are made to look like objective reviews. If we ever do have a paid advertisement, it will be clearly disclosed, not hidden to trick anyone!
We are huge fans of Posh Peacock AND Boston Mamas (we live so close to Boston, we feel part of the city)!

What Jane said.
Seriously, it kills me when some of the people we review ask us what we charge to review them. I'm like, um...charge? Gives me the creeps.
Your stuff is great. Allow us to shout it from the rooftops for you. Gratis.
Oops this is also Liz from Cool Mom Picks. In case you were wondering what the hell I'm talking about.
