Mom to a 16 year old boy, 3 year old girl and 1 year old girl. We love girly clothes, especially Matilda Jane! All of our clothes are washed free from fragrances or dye and laid flat to dry. We are a smoke free and pet free home (except for fish)! While we do wear our clothes, they are all in an exceptional state and any defects or more than normal wash wear will be noted. I double bag all items and try to reuse packaging material as much as possible.
