Monkey Pants
Erynn said: While actual Monkey Pants are a style of trouser for tots, this store imports them--and lots of other clothes--directly from Japan. The family-owned business brings tons of cute baby clothes, plus other quirky items from outside the US, to this fashionable downtown spot. Want to dress your tot up like sushi? Monkey Pants can also help with that!
Los Angeles, CANoodles Kids Resale Boutique
Erynn said: A local resale boutique that's been around since 2000, Noodles has all kinds of items, from strollers and other baby equipment to books, toys, and clothes. Along with offering resale items at reasonable prices, Noodles also runs specials, like a free outfit for your new baby plus first visit discounts. And, if you bring items in to sell, you'll receive store credit that you can use immediately.
Culver City, CABurro Kids
Erynn said: Burro shops started with Erinn Berkson, who opened her first store with stationery, trinkets, and other gifts, but that later expanded into baby and kids' goods like books, decor, accessories, toys, and apparel. If you need a gift for the child in your life, you can't go wrong at Burro Kids!
Venice, CAMUM&MINI
Erynn said: Mum&Mini started as a lifestyle blog and grew into a children's boutique in Encino, and it's now popular for gorgeous dresses, statement tees, fun accessories, and more. Many items feature water-based ink for prints plus Oeko-Tex certified components. You'll also find toys, feeding supplies, and other baby items here.
Encino, CAMy Little Shop
Erynn said: This boutique showcases adorable fashions for both boys and girls--items like tiny boys' suits and glittery girls' skirts and dresses. You can also find plenty of stylish looks for parties and other events that demand a bit of dressing up.
