Classic

"Monday's child is fair
of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace…" goes
the delightful verse that gives this lovely little children's
clothing shop its name. Tucked among the charming shops at
historic Crilley Warehouse in Old Town Alexandria, Monday's
Child offers classic, impeccably-made apparel that never goes
out of style.

At Monday's Child, you'll find precious dresses and outfits
recalling a gentler age when children looked like children,
and the tiniest details mattered: hand smocking, fine embroidery,
quality fabrics, and exceptional finishing.

child empty handed, if that is the case. We think of everything,

“Church
Dolls”
Church dolls were
originally made during the Civil War so if dropped during a
church service the congregation would not be disturbed. Our
fine linen church dolls are very popular baby gifts and can
be embroidered with the name of the recipient. The doll's bonnet
is a hanky that can be saved and carried at your wedding for
"something old."

|
Personalized
Gifts
One of our most
popular gifts is a personalized blanket. Choose from fleece,
cotton, or flannel in pink, blue, or white. Personalization
only takes one week. Pillows, hooded towels, and bib & burp
combinations are also available. |
