So excited to have this place in East Asheville. When it comes to quality baby gear and clothes…read moreAsheville is a desert. We have what target can keep in stock and that's it. Enter The Littlest Birds! They have tons of carriers, swaddles, cloth diapers, clothing, and all sorts of gear. The best part is it's half consignment so your putting money in another parents pocket!(while reducing your footprint) Plus new premium bottles and pacifiers, organic toys/game, locally made clothing and more. The location is super convenient, just outside JC penny in the asheville mall, plenty of parking. Before you buy online or go to a big box store I would definitely call here or swing by to see if they have what you need.

The clothes are high quality and luxurious yet still play worthy. The service is very friendly and helpful. I had such a lovely time shopping yesterday that I came back today and bought more! If you have children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews, be sure to pop in when you are in Biltmore Village. They are located at the end of Boston across the road from Well Bred so get your sweets and then buy some beautiful treats!

Absolutely phenomenal staff. Nathaniel, Melissa, Rebecca and Jacey went ABOVE AND BEYOND to find…read moreitems to match my desired style, and even order things online that were not in store. Shopping can be stressful but not with folks like these around. Thank you guys, so much! Will be back for sure!

Biggest shout out to Amanda and Chelsey at Children's Place at the Asheville Outlets! While…read moreshopping today our daughter accidentally hit her mouth on a display and knocked out her loose tooth . There was an enormous amount of blood due to her hitting her gum first and then the tooth popping out. These two ladies were absolutely AMAZING!!! They comforted my daughter and myself provided us with paper towels and even took us to their bathroom and helped us with everything we needed to control bleeding and flush her mouth. They even gave us a zip lock bag for her tooth and a tattoo for being brave. Beyond thankful for their kindness and customer service! Bonus we got some really cute items before leaving!

Way back in 2003, TCP was the only kids' clothing company to offer coupons in free magazines you…read morecould get at obstetrician practices. Because I like to save money, I checked out TCP because of that coupon. I have been shopping there ever since. TCP clothes are made to last. One of my toughest rags is a vintage tank top that I inherited and that Ronni loved as a toddler. I have never thrown out a TCP item due to it becoming weak, pilled, or frayed. I buy TCP at thrift stores all the time. TCP clothing is very affordable, especially at this outlet. I scored a pair of teal, velvet pants* for Sophie. They were like seven bucks, and clearance leggings were $3.50. I was able to get a romper, a slap bracelet, tees at six bucks each, and even rose gold, mirrored sunglasses for Ronni. The point: I could afford to go crazy here. TCP clothing has varied looks so that everyone can be happy. TCP has prints, plain stuff, graphic, frilly, and soft. The clothes are comfy and cute. Who can resist a tee with smiling sushi and talking wasabi?! The dressing room is huge and can accommodate a wheelchair. Mesh shopping bags are at the front. General private school attire can be acquired (navy and khaki stuff). The employees are very nice. They can access your online points in order to save you more money (points have to be used within a certain time frame- I always forget that). Children love this place. So do parents, especially ones who love saving on gorgeous clothing. *The pants are size sixteen, so keep in mind that older teens can find stuff here.

J. Crew. The name conjures images of pastel rowers with perfect teeth. Or, if you search within a…read morebit deeper, a hip hop clique. My first contact with J. Crew was in the very late nineties. Steven's sister had modeled in a J. Crew catalog. The endless sky was behind her in her photo, and her arms were wide, either to embrace the world or show off the Crew sweater. I wanted blonde hair, but I wanted the sweater even more. Over the years, I acquired some J. Crew here and there from thrift stores. I didn't purposefully seek it out, but I didn't reject it, either. I never shopped specifically at J. Crew, as it seemed like a parallel universe in which one had to be J-y or Crew-y. I was neither. But Factory, Crew's li'l sis, has mostly affordable wares. Factory has sales like you cannot believe. Two months ago, I ordered earrings. Two weeks ago, I ordered earrings. Today, I ordered earrings. Ten bucks on sale. Shipping is free. Take that husband. Take that society. I went to the outlet in Asheville last spring. It was so peaceful that you could fall asleep on tees that had been folded by what I thought were cyborgs. The employees are sweet and regular, like us. There was a pretentious lady with a lap dog in the outlet, which seemed slightly surreal, but that was it for regality. Another woman let me and my husband know that she wanted to see the earrings, too, which is again slightly surreal because in my universe I just politely wait for a browser to finish. The layout of Factory is great. It is easy to get to stuff, but tough to make a decision. Everything there is cute, dammit. If you saw the amount of secondhand, quirky stuff that I have from J. Crew and Li'l Crew, you would bow down to me. OK, some is new. One needs a black lace printed sweatshirt with short sleeves. Needs it. Not hopes for it. Needs it. On sale for fifteen bucks, yeah, you need it. Plus, the sales associate told me that I can rack up points in order to save more money. Yep. Future self: bedecked with fake fur earrings and tees adorned with platypuses. (That's a hint for Factory to produce stuff like that.) I dream of one day being able to wear the J. Crew pants that were created by an edgy fairy and cached away, awaiting most likely teens who are clumsy with foodstuffs. I think of the 2014 J. Crew catalog that I recently stole away from my mother's house, because she has taste and I love neon in weird places. Whether you wear J. Crew or J. Crew Factory, new or used, people can see you comin' from a mile away. And I love that.

Julianna was wonder when I spoke with her this am. I was a bit distressed by Web site and the…read moreperson at site referred me to nearest store. 6 hours from my home. She was able to facilitate my order ( that was all sold out) and even gave me 40% off and free shipping ( Black Friday). It was a dress and jacket I saw and loved and had planned to wear for a special event. You know how when you see the perfect thing and you must have ( women will understand as Julianna did). Next trip to Asheville I will be visiting her store. What customer service is about. The corporation should be delighted to have someone working for them and being so helpful on I am sure their biggest day of the year. Just FYI if you want to use web site have to use .com. Not what is listed on website. That is Canada and it seems dresses can't be shipped from their location there. Can't wait to see my dress and coat.
