Oh my gosh. Some of their stuff is SO cute! Anyone have experience with this company? Attached is an example of one of their adorable jumpers.

Their stuff is all from Aliexpress (China) and they just resell at mark-ups. I would look on Aliexpress first!
ETA: Most of Aliexpress is also knock offs of small shops... so just be aware of that. I change how much I care about it on a daily basis It's been hard for me to even find out who the original designer/shop of many designs are, anyway.

I don't know about that company personally, but that looks like some of the Brass Razoo rompers. Those are pretty pricey, though.

@daniellemybelle: Oh my gosh...you were so right! It's less than half the price on aliexpress!
How's the quality? I can't imagine it's great.

@Coral: the romper pic in your original post vs the one in the listing looks a little different. The AliExpress pattern has more flowers and less white background. Super cute romper either way!

@Coral: I haven't bought items like these online, but I used to live in Hong Kong and would buy them for my daughters in little local children's shops for about $10-$15 US per item (so the price is right online!). As you guessed, the quality varied - it was easier to choose when I could see the items in person. In general, items with a lot of lace, tulle/chiffon, etc., really showed the cheaper quality of the materials/manufacturing - those materials tended to feel plastic-y, crunchy, or would shine unnaturally. Things that were more cotton based with nice trims tended to look more expensive/nicer. For $7, I'd say it's worth a try. Do double check that it snaps in the crotch, though. Sometimes the companies making the knock offs safe on manufacturing by making items a pull on style rather than having zippers or fasteners, which is annoying.
I also found that even things that look cheap-o in person can photograph really nicely - my friend even noticed this with a knockoff wedding dress she purchased just for photos!!!
Happy shopping! Post back if you order it, please! I'm also tempted by all the cute pop-ups for bubble suits and rompers on Facebook!

So I just fell down the rabbit hole of looking at things on Aliexpress, lol. I had no idea they sold individual items, I thought it was all bulk. I really liked the original romper posted, but I ultimately decided that I didn't like the straps on the back, they seemed like they would be constantly falling off.
Instead I got these two dresses I thought were really cute.

I know this has already come to a conclusion, but just wanted to add in a few things for anyone else that might show up reading this thread. I, a number of friends, and according to many strangers reviews online, have received terrible quality items from Lenny Lemons, that are ridiculously ill-sized, and barely last one wearing. Their customer service deletes any negative comments or reviews, and blocks people from leaving comments. These are not harassing comments from trolls, these are people that have a legitimate issue that they would like solved. I will NEVER recommend doing business with Lenny Lemins. If you want cheap, poor quality, but Super cute clothes for your little one, go straight to Ali Express or do a google reverse image search for the clothes you like!!

@sunny: It arrived in the timeframe they said it would, maybe a month or so? The quality was pretty good. They look pretty much exactly like what's pictured. The applique work was very nice, material felt nice.
Few things I didn't like/realize though...
- They run kinda big. My 7 month old was kind of swimming in the 7-9m size. In the pic below of the pink one you can sorta see the flutter sleeves were really big and the neckline was also swimming on her.
- The tag was on the outside. You can see it in the pic above of the yellow one, but I didn't notice before I bought it.
- And probably the most annoying thing is that I assumed both were essentially dresses, but they're like faux dresses. The skirt part is only in the front. You can see what I mean in the picture of the yellow one.
Overall for like $3.50 each they were still a good deal.
