lollie + 'Lina Bean Partner for a "Shop for a Cause" Trunk Show

‘LINA BEAN AT LOLLIE IN EVANSTON

Caroline Ritter, creator of ‘Lina Bean, an exclusive line of children’s accessories from burp cloths to bowties, will be featured at a trunk show at lollie, a unique kids’ boutique located at 1312 Chicago Ave., in Evanston, on Tuesday,  Nov. 22nd from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

‘Lina Bean products are designed for the busy mom who wants to have pieces that look great and work effortlessly. Ritter uses the cuddliest of fabrics to match the softness of baby’s skin…they’re  baby (and toddler)-approved. All ’Lina Bean products are hand-made in the USA with only the highest quality fabrics.  Ritter’s line includes blankies, burp cloths, bibs, crayon rolls, capes and ties in twelve different patterns.  

A North Shore native, Ritter studied at the Moore School of Art in Philadelphia and worked for Anthropologie, J. Crew and Lily Pulitzer before her move to New York to work with Ralph Rucci, creator of the Chado Ralph Rucci line of the luxury clothing.  Now living in the Philadelphia area, she focuses on her line of baby and toddler clothing, worn proudly by her two sons, Miles and Luke.

Founded in 2003 and under new ownership in 2010, lollie is known for its selection of distinctive clothing, toys, books and gifts from infant to size 12. With a belief in natural materials, organics and supporting local wherever possible, lollie's products are hand-selected based on quality, age-appropriateness and safety. Featured in "Make It Better" magazine's 2011 "Best of the North Shore", lollie celebrates the wonder and innocence of childhood every day.

A portion of all sales at the trunk sale will be donated to the Danny Did Foundation, an organization that celebrates the life of Danny Stanton, a child who died of Sudden Unexplained Death in Epilepsy. The foundation works to find causes and help others to avoid SUDEP.
