Out on the Street Again!

On April 25th, Strolling In Style, in association with Stroller Strides of Boca Raton was able to raffle off a Stroller Strides BOB Revolution to benefit the March of Dimes. The raffle raised over $500 dollars for the organization.

While at the event, the March for Babies, we were honored to meet so many babies who had fought for their lives as preemies and were now thriving and healthy thanks to the organization. Of course with so many babies there, it was obvious that there were some beautiful strollers!

My favorite of the day was the Red Bugaboo Frog with parasol, followed closely by the Bumbleride Flyer in Seagrass. I did see a Baby Jogger City Mini and a Baby Jogger City Series elite double as well! The BOB 12" AW looked great, and there was a blue BOB Sport Utility stroller somewhere in there as well!

It was exciting to see so many strollers out at once, all in support of such a great cause!

Maclaren GTLX

The Maclaren GTLX is here!

The brand new Grand Tour LX is a hybrid multi-terrain stroller by Maclaren, a trusted leader in strollers since the 1960's. Whilst Maclaren is known for their A-frame, umbrella fold strollers, they have leapt head first into this fully-loaded, full featured, luxury infant to toddler stroller. IN short, the Grand Tour LX is for parents who want it all in one convenient package.

The Grand Tour LX, which I will call the GTLX for short, has many features you will not find on any stroller in today's market. Here are a few:

Safety lights. The GTLX has safety lights located below the front swivel wheels. These lights are activated by a switch under the footplate and can be operated with a remote control which is included. The LED lights will give out a continuous bright white glow, flash red and green, or flash red, white and green. Safety lights allow for more night visibility to see your baby.

Console. The GTLX console is an outstanding marvel. The console consists of a timepiece, a temperature gauge and a strollometer. The Strollometer allows you to measure distance with every step and is easily calibrated. The conosle also consists of a phone/glasses holder, always allowing for easy access at your fingertips.

Nano-Tex. The stroller fabric is Nano-tex, making it UV treated, water resistant and even fire resistant. The Nano-Tex fabric makes the stroller unbelievably protected from the sun.

SO that is only a few of the amazing things that make the GTLX so edgy and unique, putting it at the top of today's market. Plus, the ticket price isn't bad, considering the amount of accessories that are included in the price of the stroller. Watch for it on our site in the next few days, and you'll see what we mean.

It's been awhile since our last post, but boy have we been busy! Our store is expanding and making the most of the space we have hasn't been the easiest process, but things are looking great!

In accessory news, we have new stroller organizers from Carry You, including the double stroller organizer which works great on the Maclaren Twin Techno and other side by side twin strollers! We of course have the Torino jogging organizer for jogging strollers and all the velcro-on snack trays for the bugaboo, phil and teds, UPPAbaby and other strollers with front bars. We have the demi milan organizer for umbrella strollers as well. An organizer from Carry You is a great way to add extra storage to your stroller and the soft cup holders are great for sippy cups, water bottles, and even your iced latte! Also, we are adding some stroller toys to our collection so watch out for those! Oh, and we have a bazillion stroller liners that are NOT online so if you live in the area and want to come by, you can see our collection here in the store...sorry everyone else, I hope to update that part of the website, but like I said, we've been so super busy!

In stroller news, the carry cot from Bumbleride has arrived and it is SO adorable! The picture above is the carry cot on the Bumbleride Flyer in Vita...doesn't it look precious? The best part is the fact that the Indie Twin can take two carrycots for newborn baby twins! The mattress is nice and soft, and it is just enough room for baby to get cozy and dozy. It fits in all Bumbleride strollers except the Queen B (which of course we don't have yet...shhh. One day soon!)

Also, expected to arrive next week is the Maclaren Grand Tour. However, no real definites on that, but will keep you posted. If you don't know what the Grand Tour is, and most of you probably don't, stay tuned; all will be revealed in the coming weeks. I assure you that this might just be the years hottest stroller...

Take care until next time! Happy Strolling!

Maclaren, Baby!

So, I've been saying it for months, but now it's finally true! Strolling in Style is finally Maclaren's newest retailer! We are proud to carry the original buggy from England!

Let me speak for a moment on Maclaren strollers. Maclarens are known for their lightweight frames and classic style. Adding a Maclaren Triumph or Quest to your stroller collection is a great idea for quick trips around town, or for traveling! A Techno XT or the luxurious Techno XLR would be more than ideal for your primary stroller! The Twin Techno XT is an amazing lightweight double! Also, a Maclaren stroller is also a great stroller for every stage of your child's development. Most are compatible from birth or three months, and will accomodate up to 65 lbs; simply amazing, since Maclaren's heaviest single stroller weighs in at just 16.3 lbs! The picture shown here are the Maclaren's in our showroom! Check out the Maclaren collection on our website as well, http://www.strollinginstyle.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_218!

In other news, the majority of the Bumbleride '09 Collection has arrived! We are still missing the Carry Cots and Snack Packs, but the strollers are in the store and looking fabulous! The '09 Indie in Orange Spice is dressed in a daisy green liner by B and V kids (find it in the dress up my ride section). The backrest on the Indie has been upgraded for '09, in addition to the harness and the streamlined canopy. Next, the Ruby Flyer for '09 is here on the floor. The '09 Flyer features an updated canopy and harness as well. The same great Bumberide features such as the reversible handle, full recline and adjustable footrest have stayed the same! Also, the Ruby color features a beautiful beige falling leaf patten in the lining. You can check out pictures of these strollers on our facebook page! Also, while you are there, you can become a fan!

We have had a bit of interest in the Bumbleride Queen B lately, so look for it in our showroom soon. Speaking of adding strollers to our collection, if anyone has any ideas, if you love a stroller or wish we carryed it, please let us know. Your opinion matters!

Also, I wanted to thank our customers for their patience! Here is a small bit about us... we are a small family owned and operated business whose number one goal is to give you, our customers, excellent one on one service. If you do pay us a visit and we are busy with another customer, we want to make it clear that although you may have to wait, we will strive to give you the same individualized service. Please be patient with us. Also, if you would like a phone consulation feel free to call and we will return your call at a time when we can speak serious stroller talk without interuption! Alternatively if you crave individual attention, please make an appointment for Sunday or Monday by calling 561-994-3535.

Happy Strolling!

Hot New Price on the Frog!

Enough Said! Wow! Bugaboo has done an amazing thing in taking their first stroller to hit the market, the Frog, and offering it at this unbelievably competitive price without changing a single thing about the stroller!


The Bugaboo Frog, with it's Frog like-suspension, beautiful colors, and bassinet seat combination is the perfect mix of style, comfort and function! Check out the Frog on the website for information on specifications and more features!


Coming soon: the arrival of Maclaren (Finally!), and new Skip Hop bags, new Bumbleride strollers and more surprises in March!

Accessories and Gifts galore!

I feel like things are always changing here, every day is something new and different!

In accessory news, our latest and greatest accessory is the brand new Carry You snack trays! The Carry You snack trays fit on all strollers with a front safety bar including Bugaboo, Uppababy, Phil and Teds, and Icoo! I have heard many complaints from customers about how "Bugaboo's don't have snack trays!" I knew there was such a demand for this product that allows moms to feed their kids on the go. What a cool product, Carry You! Carry You also makes innovative stroller organizers and other stroller accessories.

Also, we have the most beautiful gifts on the floor now. The Mia Belle Baby bunny is a plush bunny that features a posh Fleur de Lis stroller clip on one side and pacifier holder. A perfect gift for the baby who has everything! Another gorgeous option for a gift are the all new Blankeyclips. Blankeyclips are plush dog, bunny or ducks that are also used to clip a blanket to a stroller so it doesn't fall off! Furthermore, Blankeyclips come with their own beautiful fleece blankey!

Here at Strolling In Style, your opinion matters! We love feedback, so if there is anything you think we should carry and don't, please email us or give us a buzz and let us know !

Stroller Update!

Since my last post...

We have officially become the lastest Valco Baby dealer! Valco strollers are extremely practical and functional. The Valco Tri-Mode features an optional toddler seat and hitch-hiker standing board. Therefore, with one single stroller, three children can take a ride! Upgrade to the twin Tri-Mode and 'up' the capacity to four, yes, four kids on one stroller! Whoa! Valco strollers are also known for their wonderful extra storage both in the canopy, and the sides of the under basket! The fold is also fantastic! So if you are looking for a jogger hybrid with doubles potential, this is the stroller for you mama! Also, Valco cup holders and hitch hiker boards are univeral accessories for any stroller!

In other stroller news, Bumbleride rolled out their '09 collection this past week! The '09 Flyer, Indie and Indie Twin boast new colors including Vita (Hot Pink) and Lava (Black.)
