It’s been a while since I have taken professional pictures of the kids together or gotten all of the grand kids together for family portrait photos for my parents. I definitely wanted to get some photos taken care of this Spring for Mother’s Day and wanted to purchase some nice clothing for the kids. I really lucked out with the President’s Day sale at Hartstrings.com, I was able to get 20% off my order AND free shipping!!
I really liked how easy it was to navigate on the Hartstrings website. I immediately go to the Sale section just to see what they have since they did have a large banner advertising up to 75% off, what can I say I love a good deal! I found a great red and white button down shirt and these jeans for my 7 year old son. I wasn’t sure which size I should get since he is generally small, luckily there was a size chart:
Imagine my excitement when I found the same exact shirt and jeans for my soon to be 3 year old nephew! I then searched the girl’s section and found this adorable black shirt. Here is a little background on my daughter, she will not wear a dress. No skirts for her either so I wanted to get her a nice shirt to wear with jeans. I got her a ribbon shirt that looked nice but wasn’t too girly. It was part of the KC Parker line which consists of beautiful fashions for sizes 4-16 girls.
I was able to get both boys outfits which included jeans and the long sleeve button down shirts for less than $40 total!! The price tags on these items of clothing were originally $40 a piece! That is $160 worth of clothing for $38!!! Unbelievable, deal right there getting 5 pieces of clothing for around $50!
Unfortunately, the shirt I ordered for my 11 year old was too small. Not really the fault of Hartstrings, my daughter grew literally like a week over the last year and is actually taller than me. I was hoping a size 16 would fit her and she said it felt like it was suffocating her. Bummer, the shirt was beautiful I am almost sad to send it back! In fact, I loved all of the KC Parker brand items that Hartstrings carried. Everything looked quality and was very beautiful.
Now, the clothes I ordered for my son and nephew were adorable!! We tried them on and the boys had so much fun wearing matching outfits. We got everything a little big so they could wear the clothes in the Fall/Winter later this year.
But Auntie, I am too busy playing for photos!
Okay maybe a couple photos.
Sure son, you can hold a fake chainsaw in the photos.
As you may see, my son prefers to not tuck in his shirts and it looks a little big.
I told my sister in law that we can hopefully keep these outfits nice until we can find Adrienne some clothes and get the photos done.
I went back to Hartstrings.com today to check out their clothing and I’ll be honest, with my sister in law having baby number 2 in a couple months I am on a baby shipping fix. I did notice right away that the site has been redone completely! I thought it was easy to navigate before but now everything is at the top and I can just start from there. Also, the photos on this site are amazing (I have photographer envy).
On top of the quality clothing I received, the great prices and fabulous new website, I love that they offer $5 flat rate shipping on all orders so I can have many shopping fixes without breaking the bank! They also offer a 10% coupon code when you sign up for their newsletter!
On a post shopping note, I can’t believe I forgot to check Ebates.com to see if Hartstrings was on there. They are!!! If you shop Hartstrings be sure to shop through Ebates for 3% cash back!!
