Juvie Named Best Kids' Clothes by Nickelodeon's ParentsConnect

July 24, 2008 - PRLog -- Juvie (http://www.juvieshop.com), the store for older kids located in Los Angeles and online, was voted the 2008 Best Kids' Clothes store in Los Angeles as part of Nickelodeon's ParentsConnect's Parents' Picks Awards.

The ParentsConnect's First Annual Parents' Picks Awards Awards identified the best family-oriented places and resources in 52 major U.S. cities. Users, real parents, voted for nominees online at http://www.parentsconnect.com/parentspicks from May 19 to June 30, 2008. On July 15, 2008, the ParentsConnect.com site published the Parents' Picks winners and the winning venues' information will remain featured on the site for a year. All Parents' Picks businesses were nominated based on recommendations from ParentsConnect.com local city editors who live and work in the cities they cover, in conjunction with ParentsConnect users' feedback. Users' votes and rankings ultimately determined which venues are selected as winners in their respective categories.

As a relative newcomer to the retail world, Juvie's owner Kristen Taylor welcomes the win as a validation of the tween store's concept and execution.  "We are thrilled that parents voted for us as the best kids' clothes," said Taylor.  "We strive to fill the older kid niche with clothes that children and their parents love, and this award tells me that we are providing that for families in Los Angeles and across the country."
