Explore Manila’s best stores for baby clothes—adorable, stylish, and perfect for thoughtful gifting.
One part of adulting I wasn’t prepared for is gift-giving. In high school, we gave our friends presents, but let’s be honest—our mothers were the ones who helped us pick and buy them. Recently, I faced a dilemma choosing a gift for my best friend’s wedding, and eventually opted for something practical. But then I started thinking: what about the future? What do I do when my friends begin having baby showers and gender reveals? Where will I find cute baby clothes to give as gifts?
My overthinking led me to do some research, where I found five stores in Manila that make shopping for my friend’s future kids a breeze. (And if you’re reading this with little ones of your own, consider this a set of style tips for your adorable kids.) These shops have everything you need to dress them in the cutest attire.
