Beshir
imports the clothes mostly from Europe, but also sells apparel made by
American, Japanese and South American designers. Prices average about
$35 to $50 for clothing items; the store also sells toys. Beshir said
she’s attracted to European kids’ clothing because it tends to be higher
quality than mass-produced items sold in larger American department
stores.
