Step back about 25 years or more, before online shopping - heck, even before the internet was…read moreavailable to the public. Purchasing items through mail-order catalogs or home-shopping parties was the only way to find some specialty items. Twice each year, Kelly's Kids (which was a mail-order entity) would rent an empty storefront locally to sell all of their overages of children's clothing. For $10 each, you could purchase beautifully lined and appliqued dresses, jumpers, overalls, shirts, shorts and matching accessories (specifically hair bows). Always of high quality, their clothing stood the test of time through repeated wearing and washing and my children (who were pre-school age at the time) always looked sharp. Often my children and their cousins would be in matching outfits purchased from Kelly's Kids for a family portrait. Now, step forward to present day. Kelly's Kids is online and still offers those same beautiful items (with current designs and styles) that I had purchased years ago. And when you purchase at the "end of the season," prices are all $9.99 or less! Quality is still outstanding, just like it was all those years ago. Styles are arranged in themed collections so that you can mix and match tops with shorts or jumpers. Matching accessories are shown within the collection in order to pull an entire outfit together. Both boy's and girl's styles are listed in the collection (in case you want to do the matching-outfit thing like I did at times). Monogramming is available if you're into that. Their website is easy to navigate and ordering was a snap. Shipping was quick and packaged well. Absolutely stunning children's clothing from a reputable seller - all at phenomenal prices!

However, I have visited 3 times in the last couple of weeks and no one has ever greeted me or asked if I needed assistance. When I checked out today, the clerk was friendly and efficient, but that is the only interaction there was. As a new customer walking in, one would certainly be overwhelmed by the size, offerings, and layout. Perhaps some direction and information would be helpful to your guests.

There is at least one that carries everything, period. There are a few that specialize in the super-cute smocking and brands like Mud Pie.

Very likely no one else at the baby shower will give anything more beautiful. In terms of practicality. Well, 97% of the population will wince the first time Junior barfs on his cashmere knit longall. So not super-duper practical. *SHRUG* Definitely super-fun!
