ABOUT SUN-STACHES

Forged in the fiery underground of creator David Levich’s parents’ basement, Sun-staches brings its unique brand of humor and design to your face, transforming you into your favorite superhero, villain, cartoon icon, or any other character imaginable. The founders of the company, Eric, David, and Dan were three best friends from high school, who at the age of 18 were given $200 of seed money from David’s aunt to start a business.The idea for Sun-staches developed as a pitch for a large Halloween retailer. Combining the love of sunglasses and mustaches together, David and his friend and head designer Jordan knew they were on to something big, and from that point on, Sun-staches was born.

 

Originally starting with the unique mustache design, the company has grown to develop other motifs including Santa Clause, pirates, police officers, Uncle Sam and many more. Sun-staches now creates the most unique novelty and party eyewear or “facewear” on the market. Their original designs completely transform the person’s face wearing them. Gone are the days of boring traditional “party” glasses. Sun-staches has ushered in the new generation of novelty eyewear and are making great strides in becoming a household name.

 

During season six of the ABC hit television show “Shark Tank,” the founders of Sun-staches were able to make a deal with fashion mogul Daymond John. Partnering with Daymond, Sun-staches has secured incredible licensing opportunities including the likes of Disney, Nintendo, Marvel, Universal, Warner Brother’s, Microsoft and many more. This in turn has lead to Sun-staches being sold in major retailers like Party City and Spencer’s, and are now offered globally for the whole world to enjoy!

 

Entertainment’s biggest stars have not been shy in showing their love for Sun-staches. From Miley Cyrus to Aubrey Plaza to Beyoncé, Sun-staches have been a smash-hit, and photos of these celebrities were picked up by celebrity blogs and teen-centric websites across the Internet. One of Sun-staches biggest media exposure moments came when Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez wore the glasses during their karaoke rendition of Carly Rae Jepsen’s smash hit “Call Me Maybe,” a video that has over 72 million views worldwide.

 

No great company can succeed without a great team. Sun-staches has worked hard building a strong team from within; consisting of top-tier designers and innovators. From the sales and support staff, to our supply management team, and those working hard in the warehouse, creating a family-like environment has been crucial to the company’s growth and success. Sun-staches also has worked hard to protect its brand and intellectual property rights. By placing an emphasis on this aspect of business, Sun-staches has been proactive in removing a large number of counterfeits that are being offered and sold in stores or online. This diligent effort has kept the strong reputation of Sun-staches going, and will continue to be a focal point in the future.

 

Understanding the importance of giving back, Sun-staches has teamed up with numerous charities such as Aut2Run, Spirit of Children, Toys for Tots, Infertility Treatment and Support, and many more. The Spirit of Children program in particular is one that brings fun and funding to hospitals at Halloween and all year long through support of Child Life at hospitals in local communities. Sun-staches has helped further the Spirit of Children’s goal by donating thousands of glasses to the children, all in an effort to brighten up the children’s lives.

 

The bottom line is that Sun-staches can instantly transform anyone into the life of the party, and any person wearing these glasses can attest to the fun they have the moment they put them on. The future is bright for Sun-staches, better hope they have their shades on!

Their Story

We love taking family trips, however, as our family grew, our kids’ “stuff” grew as well. Between pillows, blankets, clothes and stuffed animals, our trunk had absolutely no room for anything else. We just knew that there had to be a better way…

 

Designing BuddyBagz was the solution to our family’s packing dilemma!

COVERED GOODS

 

Jamie Yetter is the designer and owner of Covered Goods™. As a mother of four, she faced a common fear while nursing in public; the fear of being exposed! This fear often kept her and other nursing mothers hunting for a hidden place somewhere and sometimes made it impossible to nurse at all. While shopping around for the perfect cover up, Jamie felt that each option still didn’t give the security of optimal privacy. This is why the Covered Goods™ nursing cover was born in 2012. With this product, gone are the days of being fearful to nurse in public. While designing Covered Goods™ nursing covers, Jamie really kept mom and baby in mind but also thought bigger. Covered Goods™ nursing covers are hand cut and hand sewn locally in the Los Angeles area to help support our economy and to ensure a quality product. Not only are you supporting United States manufacturing, but you are buying a product that is perfect for any nursing mother.

 

NO MORE FEAR of being exposed! Covered Goods™ nursing covers give you all the benefits that the traditional covers do… and more! Covered Goods™ multi-use nursing covers provide true ALL OVER COVERAGE, front and back, and are made of super comfy, breathable fabric that stretches. Covered Goods™ nursing covers allow you and your baby to nurse comfortably. There aren’t any straps, rings, or cords to mess with, they take seconds to put on and take off, and they alleviate any worry that your baby will kick or pull your cover off.  The flexible neck is also able to be worn down under one arm to give you even more freedom while nursing. The added benefit of the flexible neck allows you to peek in on your baby or make sure your little one has latched properly. Covered Goods™ are multi-use nursing covers can also be used as a scarf, car seat cover and shopping cart cover! They can be folded very small and in any fashion for storage without the worry of ruining it. With Covered Goods™, you can truly nurse anytime, anywhere!

Originals®

 

  • pediped® Originals® are the first step in the pediped® footwear system. Soft-soled, and flexible, these shoes are recommended by pediatricians and podiatrists, as the design closely mimics barefoot walking, and do not force a child to change their natural stride.

  • Originals® styles retail starting at $37 and are available for children in sizes newborn to 24 months.

 

Grip ‘n’ Go™

 

  • Grip ‘n’ Go™ styles provide a smooth transition for a child learning to walk with a more confident stride. The second step in the pediped® footwear system, all Grip ‘n’ Go™ shoes include G2 Technology™, which contains a specialized soft rubber sole for additional cushion, rounded edges that mimic the natural shape of a foot to help with stability, a grip zone for additional traction, and a soft toe box that allows toes to curl and grip the floor. Varied styles come with additional features such as Memory Foam Technology™, and machine-washable capabilities.
  • Grip ‘n’ Go™ styles retail starting at $48 and are available in EU sizes 19-23, US kids 4-7.

 

Flex®

 

  • The third, and final, step in the pediped® footwear system is Flex®. For those who have a developed a solid, natural stride, Flex® combines high quality materials and advanced technology to create the perfect, stylish choice for all-day comfortable wear. Most styles include the Flex Fit System™, which offers a customizable fit with the use of additional insoles, extending the life of a pair of shoes up to two months. To top it off, a cushioned arch support and flexible rubber soles ensure coziness and ongoing healthy foot development.
  • Flex® styles retail starting at $39.95 and are available in EU sizes 20-38, US 5 kids-6 youth (available sizes vary between styles).

And, here is some helpful advice for new Moms!

 

Lysol has partnered up with Actress Ali Larter to help raise awareness around the networks you and your baby are unknowingly growing on a daily basis – a germ network that is.

It’s no secret that babies love to touch things – young children can touch and re-touch more than 300 surfaces in just 30 minutes – and that they take a liking to objects like TV remotes, shoes or cell phones, increasing the size of a baby’s germ network.

To help educate new parents across the country about germs, Ali has come up with several tips to creating a healthier home environment – while still letting baby’s curiosity thrive.

  • Understand the Size of Your Baby’s Social Network. “Recently, I learned that my baby’s social network is bigger than my own. I’m not talking about Twitter, or Instagram … but the number of germs that she comes into contact with every day. It’s important to be aware of these “followers” and to kick them out of the home by disinfecting commonly touched surfaces with products that kill 99.9% of germs like Lysol Disinfecting Wipes so you can have peace of mind and focus on the fun parts of being a new parent!”
  • Create a Germ Free Runway. “My kids’ curiosity and desire to explore is high these days. Whether they are crawling, playing, or running around, they’re constantly coming into contact with the floors in our house. One of the simplest ways to help create a healthier runway for their play is to keep germs at a minimum outside and have guests take off their shoes before entering the home.”
  • Know when to disinfect. “In addition to regularly disinfecting commonly touched surfaces, it’s important to disinfect areas after making a mess. When I’m cooking with my kids, and we accidentally break raw eggs on the counter, that’s a mess that needs to be cleaned up and disinfected! Raw eggs are at risk of housing bacteria that cause foodborne illnesses, which is definitely something a mom wants to avoid.”

I just love Lysol products especially the Lysol Disinfectant Spray and Lysol Disinfecting Wipes! I received samples and love using them all over the house!

It’s summer but sometimes it really is cool to stay in the house and play games! I have a new favorite by creator  SGN. I love that I can play this game on my iPhone or my laptop! It’s simply fun! What is the name of this game, you ask? Panda Pop! I have to admit I just love saving all the baby pandas! I also like that it is not complicated and that the game does not seem to glitch. I would feel comfortable with my younger nieces or nephews playing this game and adults will find it fun too! I actually was having fun playing this earlier today, when I should have been blogging!

IMG_3775.jpgpanda pop

Panda Pop is also a free game app! Now, how cool is that?! Sure! Like most game apps, you can also make purchases but you don’t have to. They are currently having a summer sale though.  I have to admit that I have just started playing but it seems like I am advancing to higher levels quite quickly and I would love new friends to play against! So, who wants to Stop, Drop and Panda Pop?

Just click on the SoCal City Kids link and play!  Here’s the link: http://sgn.me/29Ntpt8
