The Frog N’ Princess
makes fairy tales come true
By Charlotte Smith
Ever since it opened
its doors 14 years ago, the Frog N’ Princess has understood how
special a child’s early years can be, and how important it is to
listen to what a child says she needs when she wants to look “magical.”
Since the early 1990s,
Peters Township children (and their parents) have sought out a
location where they could go for fashions specially tailored for
the young. The Frog N’ Princess brings the styles popular in New
York and Europe to McMurray in sizes, shapes and designs created
to fit infants through pre-teens.
Renee Lingle decided
to open the Frog N’ Princess when she realized that children and
parents in the South Hills had nowhere to go to find styles that
were unique and that made them feel enchanting.
Unique to Peters
Township, the Frog N’ Princess features girls’ sizes
preemie infant through pre-teen, and boys’ sizes preemie infant
through size 12. Girls’ items include pant sets, dresses, skirt
sets, coats/jackets, shoes/boots, swimwear, hair accessories,
hosiery, jewelry, and gifts. A recent store expansion created a
separate preteen room that includes sportswear separates, casual
skirt sets, party dresses, suits, shoes/boots and handbags.
Items for boys include
separates, sport coats, suits, tuxedos, coats/jackets, and
swimwear.
The store’s “special
occasion” section includes christening outfits and accessories,
along with gifts.
A full-line of flower
girl dresses and ring bearer Eton suits and tuxedos are featured
for wedding attire. In January, a Communion Trunk show is held
with Pittsburgh’s largest selection of communion attire for both
boys and girls along with accessories and gifts. Books, toys and
gift certificates are also available for purchase.
Kids who shop at the
Frog N’ Princess are on the cutting edge of fashion, sporting
clothes inspired by TV and movie stars. An example are those by
Juicy Couture, along with brands like Lipstik and English Roses
(which is named after Madonna’s books). The European look is
exemplified by clothes inspired by Catimini, Deux Par Deux, and
IKKS which is exclusive to the Frog N’ Princess.
For boys there is a
wide range of classics from Wes & Willy, along with trendy
jeans, cords, microfiber cargos, and the popular “skull and
crossbone” t-shirts.
The store is bright,
colorful and always cheerful. “The Frog N’ Princess
makes fairy tales come true.”
The Frog N’
Princess has moved to a new location. The new location is 3015
Washington Rd. McMurray PA 15317. The store is open 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
Mon.-Fri. and 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Saturdays. For more information
