Pink & Brown is an award-winning organic children’s boutique in Old Town Alexandria. It offers products made from 100% organic cotton. This is both better for the environment and the baby; the organic cotton is considered to be better in preventing the trigger of allergies, while also being softer to the touch. And just because the clothing is environmentally friendly doesn’t mean it is visually displeasing. The baby clothes are adorable and from some of the most sought-after brands. Keep your baby in the softest and most environmentally friendly clothes around.

When people thought of maternity wear in the past, they thought about muumuus and general baggy clothes. These clothes were not always flattering or fashionable. Now, modern maternity clothing can be stylish, trendy and comfortable at the same time. At Apple Seed Maternity & Baby Boutique, mothers and gift buyers are delighted at the beautiful options they have to choose from, including the options for baby clothes, from oxford shoes to seersucker rompers. Both mother-to-be and baby will be looking their best.
