Fun and Frugal Baby Fashions

Actress Rebecca Romijn has played many roles in her life, but her latest and greatest is mother to 16-month-old twins Dolly and Charlie with husband, actor, Jerry O'Connell. This coming Monday Romijn is hosting a baby fashion show in New York to unveil the Huggies Jeans line, which are diapers styled to look like denim. She came to "The Early Show" studio Thursday to how you can make your baby look great for less on any occasion.

Romijn also spoke about her involvement with the all-volunteer LA Diaper Drive charity, which provides low-income families in the Los Angeles area with diapers to place an emphasis on fostering safe and healthy environments through education. In addition to relieving financial pressure from the parents, the diapers are often used as incentive to take important life skills classes aimed at improving lives and promoting safe and healthy families.

Looks featured on "The Early Show":

Neighborhood BBQ/Family Reunion:

Let's face it, when you are bringing your baby out on a summer afternoon to be social, you want them to look their cutest. So this is an outfit where you as a parent can get creative. We have put together a white denim outfit, that will keep them covered while still keeping them cool. The white jean jacket is from Old Navy, and is a little less than 20 dollars. It looks great on arrival and if your baby gets hot, just take it off. This outfit offers some really adorable layering. We match the white denim jeans with the jacket from GAP. When it comes to an outfit like this you can accessorize as little or as much as you want. We have dressed it up with sandals, a hat, a purse and sunglasses, but for a boy you can try a baseball cap and cool sneakers.
