Lennoxville is set to welcome a new addition to its retail landscape with the opening of “KiddoKloset,” a boutique specializing in affordable children’s clothing. The store, co-operated by long-time friends Brook Roy and Ashley Coulombe, will officially open its doors on Aug. 1, offering a range of high-quality, budget-friendly apparel for kids aged 0 to 5.
The inception of KiddoKloset was born from a shared experience common to many parents: the rapid growth of children leaving them with barely worn clothes. “Ashley and I are both moms; she has two girls, and I have two boys,” explained Roy, alongside Coulombe, in a July 27 interview on the scene. “We found ourselves with all these great clothes that our kids had outgrown, and we thought, why not do something with them?”
This idea led to the creation of KiddoKloset, a name that reflects the store’s fun and accessible nature. “We wanted a name that wasn’t strictly English or French but something that everyone could relate to,” said Roy. “KiddoKloset felt perfect because it’s playful and inviting, just like the space we wanted to create.”
Located within the Rustic Roots venue, KiddoKloset offers both new and gently used clothing, ensuring a diverse selection for shoppers. The store focuses on providing stylish, high-quality items at affordable prices, featuring brands like Carter’s, H&M, and Nike.
