I visited Hey Little Diddle to find a gift for my new niece, who has a fancy name, so this store…read moreseemed like an appropriate place to begin to look for a gift for her. This store is a little fancy, but not overly so. It's very carefully curated, and the color palate is beige-taupe-oatmeal-neutral toned. It's like if Restoration Hardware created a baby store. If you're looking for neutral baby clothes, Hey Little Diddle is your place. The prices are a little too rich for my blood, as I prefer outfitting babies and toddlers in hand-me-downs that they can throw up on, fall down in, get muddy and messy, and also don't cost $125. The clothing here is adorable, though, and you won't find outfits like these anywhere else in the area. I wasn't looking for baby clothes, but more like toys or trinkets. They do have a few, but not a huge selection. I would visit this store for clothing mostly.

Adorable clothes! I think my son's wardrobe is approximately 90% Janie and Jack apparel right now…read more It has that classic look that is so sweet. I didn't know anything about this chain until my MIL introduced me to their precious styles. They come out with new designs on a very regular basis and they also have great sales. Clothes are high quality and last many washes. Def on the $$ side, but I'm hoping they'll be closet staples.

If you need a sweet, super soft and cuddly gift for a new baby, or even for an older child (up to…read moreabout size 8), head over to The Fashion Mall and check out Janie and Jack, where you'll find the most adorable clothing you've seen in a very long time. This store is not a local mom-and-pop shop, but it's worth mentioning on here because the clothing is so well made and so much nicer than almost anything else you'll find around. It's actually part of the Gymboree Company, but these clothes seem to be a step up from even that. They are more "boutique" in style, I think, and the prices reflect that. Be ready to spend a pretty, shiny penny on anything you get here. But it's worth it. Especially if you're shopping for a new baby. These clothes are so delicate and precious, almost as much as the baby that will be wearing them.

I'm happy to update my review, and positively, at that! This Once Upon a Child location saved the…read moreday. I was driving all around town trying to find pajama pants that would fit my tall son. It's surprising how difficult it is to find older boys' pajama pants. Anyway, I thought to try Once Upon a Child, and they had a plethora of pajama pants to choose from. It was a relief. I grabbed three pairs of pants for under $20, too! The service was great: fast and friendly. The aisles were organized and the store was clean. I will definitely be back to shop again!

Have you ever stopped into a store "just because?"…read more That's pretty much what triggered a recent visit to Butler-Tarkington's Lunch Money Boutique, one of the more recent additions to this perfectly lovely area that specializes in luxury children's clothing from newborn to size 16. Lunch Money Boutique emphasizes sustainable fashion for the kiddos (Am I the only one who wrestles with whether to spell it as kiddos or kiddoes?). Lunch Money is located next to Byrne's Grilled Pizza. I really do love this corner, though it's definitely more of a premium corner in terms of shopping. Lunch Money? The styles are adorable (and yes, leaning toward "luxury"). The employees are friendly. The store itself is nicely designed and a genuinely pleasing atmosphere. I'm not sure what it says about me that these newborns have better fashion sense than I do, but if their parents shop here it's definitely true. For those with mobility issues, entering from the back is your best option in terms of accessibility. There is a step up-front. It's my one major downer for this entire neighborhood - it's just not particularly wheelchair friendly. I didn't end up buying anything on this visit, though I undoubtedly would. If you're looking for more premium options and care about sustainability, I'd definitely recommend a visit here. As an added plus, this is also the same building as Kids Ink. While I'm getting old enough that most of my friends don't have young children, on those occasions when I am looking for options for the children in my life I won't hesitate to return here.

(I'm not pulling these numbers out of thin air; there is literally a train set siting on the shelves over at Pottery Barn Kids right now for $150.)

And they have stuff set up in a way that you can picture them in your child's room. It's a good place for inspiration and aspiration.
