Kids Los Angeles - November 23, 2009
Game On
Tomboy Kids Boutique Opens
Welcome back, folks. We now rejoin the action at Tomboy Kids, a bright new corner shop in Silver Lake, where there’s a classic clash of boys versus girls in progress.
It’s anyone’s game in the simply decorated space filled with handpicked indie labels.
The boys’ team makes a play for short-sleeve Indian-print shirts and flight suits by Clover New York. Girls counter with bold Kit + Lili dresses. Both teams vie for unisex Nico Nico leggings and henleys. By unanimous vote, MVP goes to a bird-motif sweater and purple coat by Siaomimi, with honorable mention awarded to the selection of quirky toys.
Looks like everyone’s a winner.
Tomboy Kids, 2945 Rowena Avenue, at Avenel Street, Silver Lake (323-644-1475 or tomboykidsla.com).
