Mostly Made in USA

We have recently deleted a bunch of Made in China items due to the nature of slave labor and the policies of China that we do not agree with. Most of the products now listed are Made in the USA or other countries that have fair labor practices put into place. Not all Made in China products have been deleted due to time constraints, however, it is in our best interest to eventually delete all of them. With time, you will see more items that are Made in the USA, France, Canada, and elsewhere. It is important to note that we understand no one is perfect and we cannot save the world but at least we can put more money into our own US economy by supporting Made in the USA. If you have question about this policy or comments, you may direct them to info at starlooksboutique dot com. Thank you and we look forward to healthy business relationships on all sides!

Group Issues Warning on Baby Bassinets AP

posted: 10 HOURS 38 MINUTES AGOcomments: 32PrintShareText SizeAAAWASHINGTON (Aug. 28)—

A government safety group is warning parents not to use a Pennsylvania company’s baby bassinets after two babies were trapped and strangled in the product.
The “close-sleeper/bedside sleeper” bassinets, made by Simplicity Inc. of Reading, Pa., can allow infants to slip through the product and suffocate, said the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Simplicity Inc.’s 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 convertible bassinets contain metal bars spaced farther apart than federal standards allow.
CPSC said a 5-month-old girl from Shawnee, Kan., was strangled on Aug. 21 when she became entrapped between the bassinet’s metal bars. Last September, a 4-month-old girl from Noel, Mo., became entrapped in the product’s metal bars and died.
SFCA Inc., the company which purchased all of Simplicity Inc.’s assets in April, “has refused to cooperate with the government and recall the products,” CPSC said in a release Wednesday. “SFCA maintains that it is not responsible for products previously manufactured by Simplicity Inc.”
Simplicity recalled about 1 million cribs Sept. 21, 2007, after reports of three deaths as well as reports that seven infants had become entrapped in its cribs.
