There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.

A curated kids' concept store - women-owned, mom-tested, and thoughtfully sourced.

Founded in 2021 in Portland, Oregon, Lovely Margarethe is a children’s lifestyle and apparel store offering hand-me-down quality clothing and accessories from independent, mostly European brands. Our collection is carefully curated for families who value sustainable materials, timeless design, and functional fashion for every season.

We feature beloved brands such as:

disana – heirloom-quality wool outerwear

Engel Natur – organic wool and silk layers and baby bodysuits

Pickapooh – sun-protective and weatherproof hats

New Kids in the House – stylish 5-panel caps

Canopist – ergonomic, eco-friendly school backpacks

Ducksday – waterproof snow suits and swimwear

Fairechild – breathable, waterproof rain gear

Holy Lamb Organics – natural wool bedding

House of Jude – fast-drying Turkish towel ponchos

Every product we offer has been tested and loved by our own children - so you can shop with confidence knowing it’s been mom-approved.

Behind Lovely Margarethe is Nadja Parker, a German-born mom of two who moved to the U.S. in 2020. Nadja combines her German roots with a passion for quality children’s wear, curating practical, beautiful, and sustainable must-haves for children from newborn through the teenage years.

“Es gibt kein falsches Wetter, es gibt nur falsche Kleidung.”
There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.
