liliputians NYC blog

Liliputians has had another time out!  We’ve been mentioned in Time Out New York Kids magazine again!!!!!!!

I discovered this pleasant surprise last night while soaking in the tub, perusing my various magazines subscriptions.  Time Out New York Kids is one of my favorite periodicals for finding places to go, new boutiques to shop at, fun events for the family, and just learning more about this fabulous city where I’m lucky enough to live.

In April’s issue, there is an article entitled Spree For All, which interviews Joanna Dreifus, a fellow New York mom (and art historian like me) who blogs.  As I get into the article, I’m like “I know her!”  Ok.  Well I don’t “know” her, but I recognize her name, her blog’s name, mymomshops.blogspot.com, and she is also a liliputians customer.  Even further into the article I’m delighted to see liliputians mentioned.

From the article . . . “Dreifus typically writes about products she’s personally stumbled on; most are small companies and websites that parents might not otherwise know about.  Her favorites include New York City indie designer Liliputians (’I purchased both of my children’s birthday outfits there.’)”

Jewelry designer Pink Papillon has created a new Mother’s Necklace design and I’m thrilled to be able to offer it in the liliputians boutique. This two-tone creation consists of a texturized vintage brass pendant with an overlapping, smaller silver one. Both are hand stamped in her custom girlie font letters with the baby’s name and birth date and hangs from a 24 inch vintage brass chain. These are limited edition and one of a kind creations that are the perfect gift for a new mother.

Although there is a quite large selection of birthday outfits in the liliputians boutique, custom orders are always welcome. Created special for a customer, the newest liliputians’ creation turned out so cute we had to add it to our offerings.

Birthday Cupcake Party Stripes is a vibrant outfit that is “all girl” with its pretty pink palette. The fun shirt has several overlapping appliques; the birthday number of your choice made from colorful striped fabric with decorative aqua blue accent stitching and the same number of cupcakes each complete with a little birthday candle. The coordinating pants (available in capri or full length styles) are made from a hot pink, whimsical fabric print of cupcakes, balloons, stars, streamers, confetti, and presents of course. A contrast cuff of the striped fabric with decorative aqua blue accent stitching gives them the perfect finishing touch.
