Among the large amount of new children’s e-stores brought to the web every month, only a few are (unfortunately) worth a visit. Minikin is one to remember as it is fresh, personal and beautifully made.
Minikin offers fashion-forward yet timeless pieces that are fun and easy to wear as well as a large range of cute accessories and home decor objects. The selection of brands is limited and very focused on creativity, high quality and craftsmanship. The overall offer is rich, yet not overwhelming, which makes the shopping experience a real pleasure.
Minikin is also a good one to follow on Facebook for their products picks, associated in the most poetic way. It is inspiring and always gives the urge to go shopping or to look more closely at products I might not have noticed by looking on my own.
Minikin carries most of the brands I cherish, including some from Europe that are hard to find in the U.S, like Louis Louise, Louise Misha or Woodstock London for example. The icing of the cake is the gorgeous packaging you receive when you place an order… just beautiful and making you feel like you received a very special gift…
Also available at Minikin : Wovenplay, Mini Rodini, Atsuyo et Akiko, Bobo Choses, Soft, Gallery, Motoreta…
