Time to pay a visit to Brussels in Belgium! Until June 15, French-Brasilian brand Petit Retro is on display at Boucle d’Or, celebrating its 10th anniversary. Founders of Petit Retro, Luca Schiller and Tinou le Joly Sénoville have a special love affair with Boucle d’Or, a store they particularly affectionate, a “dream boutique for kids and parents, so different and unique” as they say.

Dresses, tops, swimsuit in exclusive prints, hand-embroidered sheets and bedding, toys (oh the little the suitcases are so lovely!), accessories…don’t miss this sweet collection wonderfully displayed in one of Belgium’s best children’s store.
