Celebrity StrollerScope 2008 -- stroller style inspired by the star's stars

Choosing a stroller can be tricky business. Looking for a little guidance? Why not check out your StrollerScope? We’ve put together a year of stroller recommendations inspired by the zodiacs of the celebrity moms and their kids who share each sign.

Note from Danielle: Please read Ciaran’s suggestions with the understanding that we believe a stroller is an investment, like a car. Higher priced strollers come with more advanced and innovative features (and of course, styling). These things cost more time and money to develop and build so they tend to be more expensive than strollers that require less groundbreaking work. Budget strollers tend to look a lot alike so it would be kind of hard to differentiate them as much.

We understand that not all of these strollers are in everyone’s budget so we’re going to try to put together a budget StrollerScope on theReviews site. If you have any suggestions for innovative strollers under $300,please email us at tipsATcelebrity-babies.com.
