Gwen carrying Kingston in a Gucci baby carrier
Gwen Stefani was seen out on Thursday in LA, carrying her 7 week old son Kingston in a Gucci baby carrier.
The Gucci baby carrier is recommended for babies aged 3-9 months or weighing up to 20 lbs. However, it is suitable for a child as young as 3 weeks. The very flashy baby carrier retails for around $730.

Gucci baby carrier? Oh my goodness. The straps do not look very comfy for $700. I think my Bjorn is a better deal.

Lola was right in the last post of Gwen at Barneys way to spot the expensive goods

A little excessive but don’t we all go a little overboard when new ones come? You tend to spend what you have and she has more than normal people so good for her.
rock out kingston!

OMG, $730?! Talk about having money to blow. Honestly, that money could’ve gone to better use. How about spending the money on the less fortunate children in the world who are starving? Sorry, but that just gets my ‘goat’. Outrageous. Kingston isn’t going to care what’s carrying him! LOL

Doreen, I agree that King doens’t know the diff…. That is deffinetely for mom and the world!

For all we know the baby carrier could be a gift. I agree that $730 is a lot for a baby carrier but she might not have bought it herself

I dont like it at all really. When I first saw it, it honestly reminded me of a dog carried and how the top part is so high it looks like it would smuggle him (i know it wouldnt) but it just looks that was and it also looks like it would be very uncomfortable to wear and be right that high up infront of her face.

I LOVE Gwen, but I don’t like this baby carrier…Gucci or not I think it’s ugly! lol

Probably a gift. You know you had those baby clothes or gifts you had to ‘use’ at least once. It really doesnt seem very Gwen-like so my bet is on it being a gift.
July 10th, 2006 at 5:34 pm
Those thin leather straps look really uncomfortable!

Am I the only one who thinks that the thought of baby vomit all over a $700 carrier is rather funny?
hehehehe
The thing about baby things, no matter what they cost (clothes, whatever), inevitably end up covered in vomit, poo and food. heh.

The ring sling was way better, even if she was wearing it wrong. It seemed like it suited her style better, and fit the baby better too.

So true Tea!!! but I do think that it is a baby shower gift!
July 11th, 2006 at 3:33 am
yeah, it looks like a gift to me — doesn’t seem very… Gwen…
I learned the hard way with my first baby that if its too nice to be covered in vomit, they don’t need it. LOL.

He looks like he’s drowning and very uncomfortable, lol. It might be a nice gift or something she might’ve bought, but it’s a bit much for him at this age. JMO.

The carrier looks uncomfortable but maybe it would look better on an older baby…
as for wasting money, she earns so much that $ 730 is probably peanuts for her. Like with those Fendi bags for around $ 2000 that are so popular among celebs now (I don’t know if Gwen has one). I don’t know what many celebrities spend on clothes, shoes, hair treatments, jewellery etc. every month, but it is probably a fortune. I don’t believe in wasting money like that while elsewhere people are starving, but for all we know, Gwen might be donating thousands of dollars to charities?

I gotta chime in AGAIN. First, my little one Sophi and luv luv luv Gwen. We have her CD’s and listen religiously. Gwen is a first time momma at age 38 (?) and she has EARNED the right to spend whatever she so choosed on her little guy. Also, yes, it very well could have been a gift. I DO live by the “live and let live motto”… however, that blasted thing is UGLY to me, not that MY opinion should matter to her or anyone else. And come on!!! that little fella is swallowed whole in that atrocious thing!!! Something that is just a matter of “TASTE” doesn’t change my op of Gwen … it’s sorta what makes the world just a bit more interesting….. LOVE HER.!!

Gracious, for an english major in college ( a life-time ago)my spelling was pitiful. sorry

It’s all relative. Celebrities spend tons on cars, houses, vacations, designer clothes, etc. This dumb little carrier probably seems like a 40 dollar one that we’d all buy to rich people like Gwen.

all of ya’ll are haaaaaaaaterrrrrrs! You know you’d have if you could. And what’s all this stuff about the Baby Bjorn carrier being just as good and cheaper? There are baby carriers (as good as Bjorns) that are 1/4 of the price of the Bjorns and you all find ways to justify spending close to $100 or more on the Bjorns. Why didn’t you just buy the $19.99 Target or Walmart sold bay carriers? Because you had the extra to spend!!! That’s right! You had the extra dough to spend. So quit hating on Gwen for having more money to spend than you!!!!

I have this carrier in black and LOVE it. it is comfortable, my baby loves it and it takes a LOT of pressure off the back versus some of the cheaper brands of carriers (which i have also used) it matches the gucci diaper bag and i love both!
