Ever since my kids were born my mom has insisted on showering them with gifts. We have come to a wonderful understanding… I will appreciate the gifts she lovingly gives and she will accept a little guidance on what we need, value, and have room to store. Part of that understanding is that she can buy them anything she wants from Naartjie.
The company is from South Africa and naartjie means tangerine in Afrikaans. They are expanding their operations in the US, but are still mostly found in shopping malls on the west coast. So at this time Naartjie clothing is still unique here on the east coast. Even when it is everywhere I believe I will still appreciate the way this company combines fun prints, details and colors with super comfortable cotton clothing.
Some items are very loudly branded with the word Naartjie — good marketing, I guess, but I prefer the pieces where the branding is more subtle.
Bonus for cloth diapering families: Everything we have bought from Naartjie so far has worked well with cloth diapers 
ETA: Naartjie has arrived in the Northern Virginia area. There is a store at the Dulles Town Center.
