Sizes: Girls 0 to 14, boys 0 to 16
About: Start by taking a style quiz, with four options to
describe your kid’s aesthetic: sporty athletic, classic
preppy, modern casual or city cool (or just “modern” or
“classic” for babies). Then click pics of your fave styles in
that category. Next, select what items you need most
(e.g., “school clothes” or “swimwear”), styles to avoid
(“big brand logos” or “short hemlines”), colors to avoid
and where you normally shop, and you’ll get a box of
goodies sure to please the pickiest of fashionistas. If not,
return it for a refund. You’ll get clothes from brands such
as BCBG, Butter Super Soft and Puma.I ordered a box for my artistic
12-year-old daughter who
loves cool, comfy clothes. The
box came very quickly after
ordering it, which was nice because she
was excited to see what she got. I was
pleasantly surprised. She received a
variety of high-quality clothes for all
occasions: a T-shirt, jean shorts, a jumper,
a nice pair of dress shorts and a matching
shirt. The jean shorts were a little small—
it’s a brand I know runs small. She loved
everything. It was well-priced, and I
loved the convenience. I have recom-
mended this to several moms at my
office and will be ordering again.

trendsetting tots. The questionnaire asks for your kiddo’s age and size,
where you normally buy clothes (the options include Barneys, Bonpoint,
J. Crew and Zara, so this one isn’t for budget shoppers), and even has a
spot where you can provide your Instagram and Pinterest handles so
your stylist can get a glimpse of your aesthetic. At checkout, you rate
the items you receive and leave comments for your stylist if you’d like a
diff erent mix next time.Signing up was a
breeze, and the box
arrived quickly. I
was so pleasedwere adorable, high-quality and
well-made. Everything we
received fit exactly as it should.
They sized down in one dress
that they knew ran big and sent
a note explaining the smaller
size. I can definitely see more
boxes in our future.

About:This one’s for the girls, and the style quiz is proof,
with questions like, “On a scale of one to 10, how sparkly is
she?” Your daughter can select her favorite silhouettes
(skirts, dresses, shorts or pants), jean cut (skinny, straight
or relaxed) and looks (from four categories: classic chic,
girly glam, trendista junior or always active). If she prefers
more coverage, there’s even an option for dresses that hit
below the knees and long-sleeve shirts. All of the clothes,
shoes and accessories are produced under the Kidpik brand.Everything was pack-
aged in such a cute way,
but I felt like the options
I received didn’t reflect
the style preferences I selected in the
online survey. We counted three out-
fits total. There was also a glittery
purse and three brooches (a free gift!)
in a little pouch. She was super
excited about the purse, but it was too
long for her and not practical. The
shorts were also a bit short, yet quite
cute. The price is fair, but I would have
liked more options and higher quality.
But my daughter loved the personal-
ized experience!
