It's pretty common now, that the answer to the question "Guess What?" in a few of my circles of friends is "I'm Pregnant!" So, I duck into kids stores looking for cool stuff that an "auntie" like me would want to give. Wooden toys, cool local made…More »

I know I don't have children myself - but I've got lots of kiddies to buy for. And everytime there is a birthday, birth, or baby shower to attend - I hit up 4th Ave and make the rounds at Crocodile and Hip Baby.

It's not the store itself that is…More »

The last time I was Kiss and Makeup was a few years ago. If memory serves me, they were half the size and only carried make up and some accessories.
