Well, after being in business for almost 2 years, we have embraced another little piece of technology and finally writing this blog!

For those of you who don't know what Ollie's Closet is (and I'm sure there are quite a few!!) let me give you a brief history.....

When I found out I was pregnant with my first child, I did the inevitable and went mad-he had a full wardrobe before he was born..and I didn't even know what sex he was!


I soon realised that most outfits stayed in the wardrobe as he had outgrown them before he had a chance to wear them. So, the idea for Ollie's Closet came literally from my son Oliver's closet. If I've got piles of hardly used, lovely little bits from my son-then there must be lots of other mums with the same.

And so Ollie's Closet was born- we opened our doors on the 10th May 2008 and haven't looked back since! We sell pre-loved clothing from Next and M&S to Ralph Lauren and Oilily- and be assured, only the best will do. If it looks like it's been worn, it doesn't get through the door!

We moved to a bigger premises at the end of last year-there just wasn't enough room for all of our lovely bits. And now we have a full range of wooden toys- you can view them all on our website created by the talented Martin at http://www.fullphatdesign.co.uk/.

Well, that's where we are so far- Cardigan Road, Winton, Bournemouth to be exact!! Maybe we'll see you there.....
