Cotton Tails

I like this place. They stock the best-​made, cutest, and most unique clothes for children anywhere in Memphis. When I’m looking for something special for my son, I head here. I’ve always been greeted my multiple personnel, but I’ve also never felt crowded.
The prices are higher than Target or Gap, but if you catch them on a sale (they announce them via mail and on their FB page), it’s actually pretty typical department-​store pricing. Recently I picked up two warm shirts and two pairs of pajamas for $ 60. And if I had a little girl, I would definitely buy one of their frilly dresses!

I love the clothes here. While I do agree with previous reviews about lack of boys items. that is how it is everywhere… So my stars won’t reflect that. I also see in a previous review about the snottiness of employees here. I agree there have been times I feel the snotty entitled air in from a couple of ladies. But I think that is in other stores too and restaurants and everyday life. It has not been bad enough to affect my review. Actually I have been helped tremendously by the staff. They were so very helpful numerous times:
1-​I was looking for a specific style of bib for a birthday. They went out of their way to search while I was on the phone. When I arrived they helped me… like 3 people, to find the perfect one. They all then helped me with monogramming (some of the cheapest monogramming in memphis btw!) The lady that mopnograms even delivered it because of the time restraints we were on to our house the day of the party!
2-​when iso of gifts they have always gone out of the way to help me find the perfect items.
I know I mentioned the monogramming but worth mentioning again. It is awesome and the cheapest I have found anywhere in Memphis!
This store is BIG for a boutique and very well organized. This is the biggest plus, imo. You don’t feel crammed in while looking for sweet outfits. They have a huge selection of shoes including squeaky shoes! :) They have many diaper bags you can only find there locally.
The clothing is pricey (as expected in a boutique) but they do have sales and if you follow them on social media you will get tips about when big sales are happening!
note: I would have given 4 but I am giving 5 stars to raise their stars due to a ridiculous, imo, one star review.

I’m knocking Cotton Tails down a star because I have revisited with my brand new mom-​eyes. I joke that I could review everywhere I’ve visited prior to having a child and it would be a totally different outcome, but the joke isn’t that far off. This place has some spectacular clothing… for little girls. When I visited the first time I thought it was a fair representation of both genders, but now that I have a boy of my very own I notice that there isn’t quite the same selection for them.
I first stopped back in here after I found out I was having a boy. It really knocked the wind out of my sails. The section of infant boys (size 0 – 6 months) is so small compared to the girls’ sections. I know it is this way in every major department store as well, but I came to expect more from a place like this. It is designer clothing for kids. I know designers make things for male children, correct? I probably would have even shelled out the hefty price on those designer clothes tags if they had a better selection. I’ll revisit once he’s a toddler as they have a bit bigger section of boys clothing for that age range. Still not huge, but big enough to offer something nicer than what you will find at all the other children’s clothing stores in town.

This store may have gotten more stars for its product lines but the attitude and air of snootiness displayed by its employees brought the rating down to one star. I walked in and wasn’t greeted by any of the FIVE women standing around the counter chatting. This may be a small gesture overlooked by some but when I’m in your store for a list items that are going to cost me quite a chunk of money, the least I expect is a «hello». When I approached the women to ask a question about one of their product lines, I was given a blank stare by one while another looked as though she was being bothered. Since I spend half my year in LA I’m not confined to this boutique store for my child’s clothes and am relieved I do have choices. In fact, my style is trendier than what Cotton Tails offers (they cater to the southern and the traditional) and I was there only for a very specific product line that I was told they carried. Needless to say, after this experience I’m simply returning to online purchasing when I am not in LA.

All Memphis’ well dressed babies shop at Cottontails. Or at least their mom’s do. :)
This is a very upscale little boutique featuring designer type clothing for babies and young children. And the clothes are just so cute! My kids are all older now, but when they were little, I would drool over the smocked dresses and little boy knickers, all in the cutest of colors and designs. And all with a nice little price tag as well!
I still shop here for baby gifts though. They have adorable layette items and nice gifts.

I would shop here every single day if I could… they have such a cute selection of children’s clothing. I’m a sucker for smocked bishop dresses and I’ve seen some beautiful ones here, along with matching hair bows. I also love the jumpers, jon-​jons and bubbles. I could probably spend my whole paycheck on my daughters’ wardrobes here.
They also have a nice selection of infant clothing, bibs, and accessories. It’s a nice place to shop for that perfect baby gift.
A bit pricey, but the clothing really is fine quality, and the sales professionals are very welcoming and friendly.
