What makes the perfect baby registry? Our Dream Baby Registry series answers just that, providing an endless source of inspiration for those putting together their own Over The Moon registries. We enlisted the help of some of our most stylish and in-the-know friends—whether they’re already proud parents or still awaiting the arrival of a little one. Peek inside the registries of tastemakers, from editors and stylists to influencers and beyond. Your dream registry is just a click away.

Charleston-based tastemaker Jillian Eversole and Edwin Eversole are expecting their third little one in mid-March, and in anticipation of the due date, she’s sharing her favorite picks from her Over The Moon Baby Registry. The parents of two boys are keeping the tradition alive of not knowing the gender beforehand, so Jillian has prepared for any outcome. “We wait to find out the gender of our babies until they are born, so the birth day is extra exciting because we have such a big reveal take place also!” she exclaims. 

For names, they’ll continue to stick with strictly classic family names for the first and middle. “We are lucky to have so many wonderful names to choose from!” Jillian smiles. “Our oldest son is named Rowan Clarke, and our second son is named Joseph Henry—but he goes by his middle name, Henry.”

Design-wise, this newest arrival currently has a nursery filled with lots of greens, tans, and whites. “Our accent color is kind of a sea-foam blue, but I love blue no matter the gender,” Jillian asserts. Aesthetically, she loves classic pieces that won’t go out of style. “So far, we’ve had two boys, and my second son has worn so many hand-me-downs from his big brother, so for me, quality is important and fun yet timeless prints and silhouettes are key—I’m not a big graphic tee gal.”

When it came to making her Dream Baby Registry, there was “a method to the madness!” Jillian exclaims. “I opened four different windows on my computer and selected items that fit in four different categories: toys, clothes, gear, and nursery. From there, I went through the whole OTM children’s section and opened every link I gravitated toward within each of my four categories. I then narrowed down from there. To be honest, everything on OTM is sensational, so I knew I couldn’t go wrong!”

Jillian’s must-have items fit into two buckets: aspirational/inspirational or practical/necessary. “OTM also carries products we have used for our boys that I can personally swear by like Gooselings bedding, the SNOO, Olli Ella seagrass and rattan items, and Small Foot Toys play equipment,” she states. “Each item in my Dream Registry is more special and useful than the last, but I simply couldn’t be more excited about this organic cotton sleep suit, this baby book, and this changing basket. I think the print on the sleep suit is just about the cutest print ever for a baby—it comes in blue and pink. This baby book is my favorite one to fill in for my children. I have the same one for my older boys. Also, there is no better changing basket in the world than this Olli Ella one. We have it and I can confidently say you don’t need a fancy changing basket—a simple seagrass one is perfect.”

For those making their Over The Moon Baby Registries now, Jillian advises to think about those two buckets—aspirational and practical. “Simply put, there are items you need like a high chair, an easy-to-use stroller, and meal sets. However, motherhood can be messy so I also like to surround myself and my baby with beautiful specialty pieces and heirloom quality items they will have forever!” Jillian says. “I adore the personalized Tricia Lowenfield collection on OTM for this reason.”

Jillian and Edwin are both from families with three children, so they’re very familiar with that dynamic and can’t wait to introduce their boys to that unique experience with their newest sibling. And Jillian leaves us with key motherhood advice: “Celebrate everything, big and small! Life is so precious and so out of our hands. I never want a day to go by where I don’t celebrate the beautiful life I have or the extraordinary children I have. Also, this too shall pass. Children grow up so fast and there are constantly new phases, transitions, and twists and turns. The hard parts do come and go. It can be hard to see that as a first time parent but it couldn’t be more true.”
