Our Little Sweethearts is a super cute children's boutique on Pollokshaws Road. They stock brands…read moresuch as Ben Sherman and Ralph Lauren for a designer child, but nothing with garish designer labels just subtle pieces which are very cute indeed. They stock clothing from ages 0 -12 so if you have a friend or family member who has just had a baby then you can get them a really cute little outfit from here. These really are special occasion clothes and are the kinds of items that you would only put on your child for a special day out at the risk of them getting covered in food or mud. They also stock a range of smart clothes for older children under 12 such as beautiful dresses for birthday parties. The shop is bright, fresh and inviting and the window displays are so sweet that it would be hard walking by without popping in if you have your own little ones.

This little shop has been at The Avenue for as long as I can remember, but today I realised I'd…read morenever been in so popped into see if I could find something for my nephews/niece. It's a clothing shop and they have a really good range for all ages - even up to early teenages. My niece/nephews aren't quite that old yet but they had nice stuff and I found a few cute little jackets that I'd definitely consider getting. Prices seemed kind of high but then I don't have kids so I actually don't know what kids clothes should cost, and I don't tend to mind when buying as presents. So while I didn't buy anything this time, I was impressed with the range and will definitely pop back for a purchase soon.

If you take a look at Bellissimo's website - you'll see that it's a lot fancier than the actual…read moreBellissimo store! Although their Dumbarton Road store has a large range of children's wear - it's looking a little bit scruffy on the outside, and is actually missing a few letters from their name. In fact, I think it should currently be known as BEL_IS__IMO. Hmm. Now, I wouldn't head to Bellissimo for general every day kids clothes. They sell designer kidswear, which makes it particularly good for special occasion wear. They even have christening gowns as well as a large range of confirmation dresses. (Is it just me, or are those things really freaky?!) They sell clothing ranging from birth to eight years - and this includes ranges from Lelli Kelly, Coco, Vivianne, Marco Polo, Ducky Beau and Arabella. So yes, Bellissimo Kidz do have a nice range of kids clothing - but some of it is really expensive. Maybe it's just me, but if I'm going to spend £45 on a babygrow - I'd like to do it in a shop that still has all the letters from it's name.

I've got to say, I agree with Katie on this one. You would never guess that Bellissimo stocked some…read moreof the designers it did because of that tattered, worn down fronting. With a sign barely legible, it's hard to believe that it hosts prolific names such as Marco Polo and the like. If you peek through the window, it looks like the only stock it has is its Christening dresses. It has an overwhelming amount of formal kid's clothing of this nature, not to mention wee flower girl wedding frocks. They're not overly expensive but I must admit I am overpowered by the amount of these things - you could probably spend hours raking through their endless supply, trying to find one you liked for your child. Huddled in another section of the store is the designer baby boutique offerings. Some of the stock here is undeinably cute and really well priced but again, I felt like there was too much to rake through. You may find some bargains in here and if you're interested in designers for baby then it's worth a look. But I found this store a wee bit run down and a sensory overload. With a lick of paint, a new sign and a better layout Bellissimo could be so much better.

"But woahhh, wait a minute there, you've given it four stars smart arse...", I hear you cry. Well it's no mistake. No, this long serving proprietor of children's goodies has been nudged up a star simply because of its name, which continues to be the best of any business in the city. Aptly situated in the historic Trongate area, this shop has now become a Glaswegian institution and continues to raise a chuckle with locals while baffling visitors on a regular basis. Party on!

While it's debatable whether children who are only two or younger know what looks good or not, if…read moreyou are a new Mum or know one this is definitely the place to go to buy some baby clothes that are both cute, trendy and a wee bit out of the ordinary. The clothes range also covers expectant mums, glad no doubt, to be able to choose something other than the usual dungarees and huge t-shirts. Recent additions to the shop include very pretty Mother and child accessories and crockery, including a Beatrix Potter range. While not cheap (some of the clothes are crazy dear, craaazy dear) you can rely on being the best dressed Mum or child around, if that is your priority. Otherwise, it's hard to beat Asda's George these days.

Tucked away down on the quite splendidly west endy Skirving Street on the South Side, this place is a quite funky wee shop with cutsey clothing, accessories and other bits and bobs for gals and babies.....there is a gentle nod to some guys stuff but really, with a name like Butterfly Kisses they aint exactly lookng to corner the man market. Anyway, this is a cute wee place with some really funky gear. Ok its a tad pricey but to be honest the gear looks to be of a high quality and its in nowhere near the same ridiculous price bracket as the west end. With a freindly and helpful owener i do hope this place is around to celebrate its second birthday come next year.....me likes.

I was looking for an extra special baby gift and an Emile et Rose stockist and this was one of the stockists I was directed to by the Scotland Rep for Emile et Rose. This is a goregous shop - helpful, friendly staff (and not pushy despite a new auntie and gran preparing to go mad amongst the pink baby selection) with gorgeous baby clothes - designer brands (dior) and also known baby brands such as Emile et Rose, Sarah Louise, and Le Petit Bateau to name a few. Everything sold here from baby basics (sleep pods) to coats and christening robes. Well worth a visit if you are looking for a special baby gift for family or friends. Gift wrapping is £3 but is lovely with tissue paper, boxes and ribbons. Lots of choices for all ages (girls = babies to 16 I think! and boys = babies to 10yrs). I'll be returning at the end of the month to purchase more - a great find!

Of course, the plan fell down when I realised that he was no longer of the age where they still order sizes by months. The clothes are cool, a little expensive but well made and stylish. The staff were very patient as I tried to work out my nephew's size, and made good suggestions even when I went on about his hobbies, in the hope that would help me. One warning: this site is one that seems to struggle. In the past few years, it has changed hands frequently- it used to be a great Green Tea shop cafe. I hope that Peace can overcome the history.

You could rack through the pretty, quirky kids clothes for ages! They host an eclectic assortment of clothes for children up to 8 years, from quaint looking plaid dresses to punky duds for romping tots. It's probably the only shop I've ever been to where I've seen a skull sweatband for a 2 year old, and my wee baby cousins would like the wee combat trousers and camoflage tops. My cousin recently surprised us with a baby (when I say surprised I mean she told us after she had popped Noah out) so I made an impromptu shopping expidition to buy some new baby pressies. It was a whole load of fun but whoa, the prices are steep. I bought a dummy, rompersuit and jumper and it cost my an arm and a leg - almost caught me off guard as much as her having a surprise September baby did. So if you're going to go nuts spending like I did, be prepared for the cost. But with the friendly staff and seriously cute knitted pirate jumpers, it's the kind of place you would be willing to part with money in. Maybe it's just as well I don't have a bambino just yet, as I'd probably spend more money in here, kitting my baby out to be a mini punk rocker, than buying food and prams and all that necessary nonsense! It's cool that a baby shop exists where you can find some cute and different gifts.
