I haven't really done much online shopping for dd beside ordering from Hanna. So I was wondering....besides HA, where do you like to shop online for baby clothes?

Besides Hanna, the only other places I really shop on-line is Lands End. I am really a tactile kinda gal, and I like to feel what I'm getting. I'm fortunate to live in an area where we have a retail store for most things close by (even LL Bean). I do often check on-line for things and then go to an actual store to check them out. I do this for places like Old Navy, babyGap, The Childrens Place, etc.

www.oliebollen.com for Zutano

Definitely LE Overstocks. In fact I check it too much! I have also recently discovered the LLBean Kids sale page. It's small, but there are some good bargains there!

I often go to the Gymboree, Old Navy and Children's Place web sites to look at new lines, but I usually purchase these at a B&M store to save on shipping.

I know a lot of people on these boards also like babystyle.com.

Other than Hanna, and an occassional item from Gymboree.com that's not available in the B&M stores here, I don't do much online clothing shopping for DD.

I've been perusing this website, though: http://www.pokkadots.com

CUTE CUTE stuff--a purchase may be imminent. ;)

Hanna and Lands End, definitely. Occasionally www.houseofhattenoutlet.com.

Beth,

I'm in NoVa also. We are fortunate enough to have a lot of stores nearby and I love the fact that I get to see what I am buying in person. I hate having to return things that I buy online, I guess that's why I haven't done a lot of online shopping.

I actually bought stuff for *myself* -first time since DD was born - at LLBean yesterday.

Another Babystyle.com fan here! I actually hope that we DON'T get a brick & mortar store here in Illinois so I don't get zinged with sales tax. :) I really only buy everyday clothes at Hanna and Babystyle anymore, and buy dress-up outfits either at clearance sales at department stores or eBay.

Chalk up another big fan of babystyle.com, especially if you use ebates and when there's promo codes. Looking up their "steal of the day" is a daily must if you're a bargain shopper.

Lisa,
I noticed that you said you were in NoVA. We have a local Baby Bargains Yahoo group if you are interested in joining. email me if you are interested.

Jen, I love pokkadots too! They have the cutest stuff.

Like a few have previously mentioned, I like to check out the goods at TCP, BabyGap, Gymbo and then go to the B&M store to actually make my purchases. As far as pure online shopping, mainly Hanna and some LL Bean and Land's End.

What's an ebate for babystyle??? I bought some maternity stuff from there (LOVED it -- can't wait to loan it out to my next lucky prego friend) -- but never shopped enough to get in the know about sales/promos....

If you sign up on ebates.com, you can receive back 6% of your purchases from babystyle as well as varying discounts at lots of other online stores. In addition, babystyle offers promo codes once in a while like recent 15 to 30% discounts on most items (see slickdeals.net for an example); unfortunately, I don't think there's one that's running currently. This board is a good source for finding out new promo codes from babystyle and other online retailers. Another thing is that after spending $200, you get a flat shipping rate of $2 on all purchases within a year from babystyle and it's free after $500. Suffice it to say, myself and others have gotten some terrific deals on high-end quality clothing and gear...especially if you find something you like on their online outlet.

Gymboree.com is my top favourite; I am sure most of you guesed that!
The Gymbo here in town is small and doesn't get all items or a lot of each size.

Just started ordering from HA--I blame all of you!

And Ebay! I love Ebay.

www.kidssurplus.com is cool sometimes--I have ordered nice Kushies pack N play sheets there for good prices.

I ordered maternity clothes from BabyStlye, and I presonally thought their tee shirts were junky, some of the other items I ordered were fine. The tee shirts weren't very soft cotton and the cut was only so so for a maternity tee. The didn't hold a candle to Japanese Weekend IMHO. So I have been a little concerned about ordering baby clothes from them, I almost ordered a softest dress but didn't...

I like Hanna and Gymboree. I also like Trenditikes for Baby Lulu. It is so hard to predict sizing sometime at the more unique boutiques. Their return policies are not that lenient.
