50 TOTAL hanging items only in sizes 0-18 months.

Teen girls/Juniors sizes 00 & up. Boys sizes to 18 Due to limited space for teen clothing we are particular on what we will accept. Brands that sell best are: Abercrombie & Fitch, Aeropostale, American Eagle, Hollister, Delia’s, PINK by VS clothing, Gap & Old Navy. Please, no “Mom clothes”. Teens are very style conscious!
