concept by bringing new and gently used children's clothing, shoes and
accessories to the Rail District in Birmingham. Upscale resale brands include

Ralph Lauren, Charlie Rocket, Janie & Jack and Cotton Caboodle, while new
lines from Tea, Luna Luna and Sara's Prints round out the mix. "We have
200 brands right now," says Crawford, whose retail background helped her
branch out on her own. Even in a down economy, resale is up, she says.
"Customers are so excited about how great our clothes are," Crawford
says. "They don't have to weed through anything to get to the good stuff."
Consignment by appointment only; clothing goes from newborn to size
