This appointment-only boutique on Manhattan’s Upper East Side is the go-to place for moms in search of hard-to-find stylish kids' clothing
When you don’t want your son wearing the same chain store shirt as every other boy in his class, it’s time to book an appointment at Florence Fancy. Located in a quiet Upper East Side brownstone, Florence Fancy is stocked with a well-edited selection of stylish kids' clothes from all over Europe, hand-picked by Manhattan mom-of-two Nancy McCormick Vella. Shopping at Florence Fancy is more like an incredibly elegant play date. While your child tries on exclusive kiddie fashions by European children’s clothing designers, such as Eva Karayiannis of Caramel Baby and Child and Melanie Ireland of Simple Kids, you get to sip cappuccinos and munch on macarons from Ladurée. From adorable headbands to stylish and functional children’s shoes, you’ll find everything you need to make your little one’s wardrobe the envy of all the other tots—and their moms. —Melissa Schweiger
