Sierra Designs Diamond Spring Sleeping Bag

If you’re going to be out sleeping in nature, you need to be warm and comfortable…with a bit of cute factor mixed in. Sierra Designs’ Diamond Spring goose down bags are designed specifically for a woman’s body shape, with extra insulation in the toe area where women tend to get colder. The bags feature SD’s Flex technology, which offers up flexibility to move around, too. They also come in fun, feminine colors with a cute flowery lining. 15-degree bag $229/reg and $249/long; 30-degree $199/reg and $219/long. www.sierradesigns.com

Sporthill Nirvana Zip Top

The name says it all for this midweight layer that’s a must-have for all of your fall and winter activities. Made of a soft polyester and spandex blend, the Nirvana features a handy zippered sleeve pocket with an audio port for your iPod or MP3, so you can carry your tunes wherever you go. On chilly days, stick your thumbs in the thumbholes to keep your hands warm. $70, www.sporthill.com

Belle Baby Carrier

For moms looking to carry their newborns in style, this is the carrier of choice. Designed for babies 10-25 lbs., the carrier has an easy-to-adjust five point support system that transfers the baby’s weight directly to your hips and not your back, so you can get out walking and hiking with your little one safe and close. Best of all, the carrier comes in fun prints like dalmation and cheetah, or softer colors such as lilac and sky blue. There are also two new organic fabric styles in moss and sand. $90, $100 organic, www.bellebabycarriers.com
