A wonderful place to buy and sell really good quality children's clothes. The two floors are…read moreabsolutely packed with clothes, shoes, books and toys; it's quite hard to move and push chairs definitely need to stay outside. It's a wonderful place to browse/play and very hard to leave without buying something. The clothes may be used, but are always immaculate and often unusual - Arabella seems particularly keen on French labels.

I can't imagine shops like these were common in the early 80's, and, in any case, I stained pretty much anything within a two-metre radius, so I can't imagine my mum dragged me around boutiques of this ilk when I was a kid. But they're here now, much to the delight of parents everywhere. Fred and Grace's offers exquisite designer clothing for children under the age of 10, as well as accessories for a range of seasons. Nestled in the Morgan Arcade, it's not as easy to get to as your larger emporium type stores, but if you're in the market for high-quality kids' clothes, definitely stop by here. It beats fighting the crowds at Mothercare on a Saturday!

I'd love to be able to dress my son with clothes exclusively from Fred and Grace but it would be an…read moreawful waste - after all he has more stains on his clothes than a paint ball instructor has on his overalls. Having said that - if you fancy buying something lovely for someone's little boy or girl then pop in here you will find bundles cute little designer outfits that you can be certain will not be seen on anyone else (unless they've been here too). I also have to say that the service I received here was second to none.

I go to the shop in Westbury Village, and love all the gorgeous clothes and toys there. The price range is varied- you can pick a lovely gift up for 50p or £50 so there's something to suit everyone. They also have very knowledgable staff in both shops and they are always on hand for ideas if I need them. There are always lots of toys out for little ones to play with and they are breast-feeding friendly too! They sell lots of well known children's clothes brands such as Frugi, Kite, Pigeon, Hately, Joules and Blade & Rose, I have bought lots of gorgeous dresses for my daughter and everyone asks where they're from and comments on how lovely they are. They also have an online shop so if you're not in Bristol you can still shop here! I love Pickles and Poppets.

This one's slightly round the corner from the High Street proper, but well worth a visit. Besides a…read morelovely collection of clothes (last time there were lots of posh party frocks and a Hard Rock Café leather jacket for £50), they have some great bric-a-brac shelves. I've found some real bargains here: prices are often cheaper than in London charity shops. For instance on a recent trip I spotted ginger jars for £2.50 each. They also have some lovely carved wooden first-hand stuff. Kids mini jigsaws and money boxes with little carved animals on them. Lovely and very reasonably priced. In the back they have a book nook. It has to be described that way: nice neat shelves and a central padded bench were you can sit and read if you wish. The staff are friendly, and I defy anyone not to find something of interest.
