Virginia little shops

Virginia's independent children's boutiques are the kind run by people who choose every piece by hand. We've gathered 17 around Richmond — in Carytown and the West End, through Jackson Ward and the Arts District, and out past the city line into Henrico, Chesterfield, Sandston and Ashland. Each one hand-checked, never a paid placement.
