Introducing Baby Sara

You've met her big sister, Truly Me by Sara Sara -- please meet Baby Sara, Sara Sara's baby line. Using special treatment and novelty trims that are not easily found elsewhere, this new line incorporates embroidery, applique and trims that add a sweet touch to baby girl styles. This season, we're carrying a few pieces we think you'll want to see.

Introducing Truly Me by Sara Sara

Once upon a time there was Sara Sara, a brand we liked because of its super feminine, shiny and sparkly detailing that catches the eye. Recognizing customers' desire for a more value-priced option, they introduced Truly Me which captures some of the detailing and styling with a price tag more sensitive to the economy.

We are thrilled to introduce you to Truly Me's collection of dresses, tunics and leggings that allow your daughter to express her flair for life at school, home, playdates, wherever!

Tea Collection New Arrivals

Tea Collection's Indigo Arts line just arrived. Inspired by Japan's indigo dyeing tradition, it's perfect for back-to-school. Our favorite pieces for the little men in your life include the Sanmachi Henley, striped Nagase Hoodie, faux-layered Sayonara tee and organic long sleeve tees. For girls, the Kazari Floral Dress is perfect for picture day -- your little girl will look smart and sweet in this canvas cotton print dress, inspired by a vintage swatch. The Shibori Wrap Dress is another must have, it's a true wrap dress but easy to put on and wear. The soft cotton fabric is super cozy for school and playdates, especially when you pair with the coordinating organic cotton leggings in indigo or magenta.

We have a few pieces from late summer that we're marking down. Come in to snag a deal and stock up for school!
