The two stars for me comes with a mixture of ridiculously high prices and not so friendly service. The prices are a little outrageous, and maybe that's just because I'm not some super wealthy individual. But I can't justify spending over $100 on a shirt for my 2 or 6 year old nieces. Then comes the service. Everytime I come in to look around I'm faced with two scenarios: 1. They think I'm stealing and hound me like a hawk. 2. They treat me like there's no way I could afford anything in their store, so I become leper-zoned. It really ruins the experience for me, making it difficult to ever want to actually splurge on anything they sell there.

Yes, the clothes are expensive, but no more so than Janie and Jack or other online boutiques and…read morethe pieces are top quality and unique. Know before you go in that you are probably going to spend $100-150 per outfit. (And you can get some of that money back reselling on eBay or in kids consignment if you take good care of them.) I have purchased outfits for photographs at Piper on four separate occasions and have had assistance with selection and fit that was helpful and respectful. I returned a couple of items that we didn't end up using with no trouble at all. My only complaint might be the limited sizes available. There were dresses and shoes I would have purchased, but they did not have my daughter's size in stock. However, it's a small store with only so much room for stock.

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.

This little store can easily cost me $$$ because I want to get one of everything. I also really enjoy their active social media presence and seeing all the new products come in. Very nicely curated and styled so even though it's a small space, it seems to pack a lot in there and the displays are constantly changing. Only complaints? Since it's a small boutique, the sizes I need are often sold out, especially if I'm trying to get my boys to match so I can't always find the right item in the right size. And second, I've sadly noticed the quality isn't as good as some of their Target and Gap standards. Several pieces that cost more than my clothes are already losing threads after one wash or starting to pill. So I feel I end up shopping here to support local and enjoy the cute trends, but not necessarily to find items that will last all season or be passed down.

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 don't spend a whole lot of time up in Hamilton County, however, a recent work conference gave me…read morethe opportunity to spend some time at Hamilton Town Center. Hamilton Town Center is essentially an open-air mall. Developed by Indy-based Simon & Associates, Hamilton Town Center opened in 2008 right on the cusp of when the more traditional shopping mall was starting to wane in popularity and developers were exploring options. Hamilton Town center features over 85 shops/restaurants and is designed to resemble a streetscape. Some of the dining options, in particular, are free-standing buildings in outlots. While I think it's pretty common to associate Hamilton County with a more affluent clientele, one of the things I like about Hamilton Town Center is that it has a nice diversity within its shops - from definite high end options to more "ordinary joe" type outlets. Hamilton Town Center also hosts Emagine Theatre (the former Hamilton 16 IMAX). I suppose a minor quibble would be that the vast majority of the options here are national chains, though I noticed a lot of the national chains tend to be smaller chains that might surprise you they're a chain. Being a Simon Mall, Hamilton Town Center has a rewards club and there are some online shopping options. Like most malls, Hamilton Town Center tends to host holiday events and has a Santa every holiday. Generally speaking, accessible parking is plentiful and curb cuts are well done. There's at least one very nice greenery area that seems to draw the kids quite a bit with its various playground-lite equipment. There's a definite "sprawl" here in terms of the landscape. If you have mobility issues, you may have difficulty if you want to go to several different stores at opposite ends of the "mall." In terms of accessibility, it works. It's just a bit tiring. I considered going a 4-star and a 4.5 is probably more accurate, however, the real clincher for me is that I like the diversity of shops more than Castleton and I like the economic variation more than Fashion Mall. I just feel like there's something for everyone here. While the mall generally opens at 10am, I do kind of wish they had a decent breakfast/brunch option. However, that's pretty easy to find within a mile of this growing area. If we're being honest, Castleton is okay but has definitely declined. Fashion Mall is just fine, and I definitely like the food options, but it's more than a wee bit pretentious. Greenwood Park Mall is probably the closest comparison, though Glendale Town Center is weaving together the hybrid experience these days. Washington Square and Lafayette Square? Um, yeah. No. While Central Indiana has other options, this is definitely one of the better mall experiences in Central Indiana and it's an easy drive from pretty much anywhere in Marion and surrounding counties.
