As Seen On...

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with ABC 33/40's Talk of Alabama. As many of you know, Nicole Allshouse, one of the hosts of the show, recently announced her pregnancy. We are excited for Nicole and are thrilled to be "dressing" her each day for Talk of Alabama throughout her pregnancy.

Nicole will be wearing something from The Swanky Stork each day, which is a great way to see maternity styles and fashions on an actual person, as well as, keep up with the new styles and trends as they arrive each week.

In addition to Nicole modeling maternity styles each day, over the next several months, Talk of Alabama will feature segments on maternity style, nursery "must haves", the latest trends and styles in kids clothing and more - all available at The Swanky Stork and our baby store, Fireflies & Fairytales. Tune in this Friday for "finding the perfect diaper bag" featuring Petunia Pickle Bottom and Fleurville Diaper Bags available at The Swanky Stork.

And in celebration of Memorial Day and a fun weekend at the pool, on the lake, at the beach, etc, watch the link below to see some fabulous maternity swimwear for all shapes and sizes available at The Swanky Stork.
