Clearance sales abound! Avast ye bargain shoppers!
It's probably pretty clear that my favorite time for shopping is anytime, but I do so love the end of season sales - and what a doozy we found over at Parasols Kids Boutique.


If you act fast, you can grab designer duds for your kids ranging in price from $5 to $25, which include summer styles as well as last fall and winter - an extra cool bonus. There are plenty of boy options, which seems like a rarity - like this great boys' button down shirt (currently $15 down from $65 - pictured) which is perfect for fall. For girls, I love the adorable and versatile Courtney pant, also only $15 right now.

It's definitely worth flipping through each of the bins because you never know what items will catch your eye. But show now - with those prices, I'm pretty sure these items won't last long. -Kristen

Check out the great summer clearance sale at Parasols Kids Boutique.
