Why Basically Bows and Bowties is Amazing!

Starting as a home party and third-party retail vendor, Rita Mote made only bows by hand. Over the years, everyone fell in love with their bows (how could you not), and Rita’s daughter Kristin joined the business! They created a one-stop boutique experience for mamas and began offering not only an incredible supply of bows and hair accessories, but the absolute cutest clothes on the market. Although they’re not handmade by this duo, they are simply some of the best clothes out there!

The Clothes

When I said they already know exactly what you want before you even shop, I meant it! From shoes to pjs and every day outfits, you will not be disappointed in the selection. You’ll find the cutest seasonal picks from Posh Peanut and the best organic and ethically made neutrals from Quincy Mae. Check out their selections for bamboo clothing from brands like Gigi and Max, and pick up a pair of totally functional and chic baby shoes from Freshly Picked. With just these few amazing brands, need I say more? Probably not, but I will anyway!

The Accessories

We can’t talk about this mom-daughter duo starting with just bows, and not talk about all the accessories! It’s quite simple – there are so many! Find a beautiful, OCD-friendly, eye-pleasing rainbow wall of bows in store! It’s truly worth a heart-tugging tear to see all the hair accessories so prettily hung – and they’re all hand crafted. But don’t worry, there are even MORE accessories throughout the store for you to fall in love with. From sunglasses to purses, backpacks to hats you’ll find everything you (yep, mamas, too) and your little ones need to complete any look.

The Quality

You only want the best quality and sustainable items for your babies, but don’t worry, Basically Bows and Bowties already read your mind! Whether it’s cotton, bamboo, USA made, or ethically sourced, you’ll find it here. Kristin has curated a wonderful boutique selection and experience just for y-o-u. And don’t worry, if you’re looking for functional, they’ve got it; dressy, they’ve got it; stylish, they’ve totally got it! You can even match with your mini.
