Launched by two impossibly trendy moms in 2008, Little Hipster is an online boutique offering must-have items for moms and babies as well as unique baby gifts. Little Hipster carries all the trendiest baby clothing for newborns through 4T. Additionally, they offer a wide variety of accessories ranging from designer baby clothes to trendy diaper bags for moms-to-be and moms. Noel, based out of Michigan, found that her cousin and fellow new mom, Lori, had access to a lot more of the new, trendy items for babies and moms in Chicago. Oftentimes, Lori would tell Noel about a great item or brand of baby clothes she had never heard of, send it to Noel and she would spread the word in Michigan. Lori and Noel launched their online boutique after finding a demand from those searching for these high quality items to find them more easily.

| About Lori: |
Lori grew up in Michigan and is the mom to newly-one Quinn. After graduating from The Ohio State University with a bachelor's degree in business administration and marketing, Lori went on to hold sales positions ranging from pharmaceutical sales to medical device sales. She later moved to Chicago where she currently resides. As a teenager, Lori dreamed about going to the Fashion Institute of Technology and throughout her adult life, she maintained an interest in fashion and unique items and gifts. Having Quinn and having someone new to shop for rekindled Lori's interest in fashion. Starting this website satisfies both her internal fashionista and her enjoyment of promotion of items she believes in and is excited about.

| About Noel: |
Noel grew up in Ohio, is the mom to 15 month old Audrey and the provider to Audrey's canine sidekick Chloe. Noel attended The University of Michigan and graduated with an engineering degree. Currently living in Plymouth, Michigan, Noel continues to fulfill her engineering passion by teaching people how to use computers at a local community college. In addition to this, she also assists a wedding photographer and volunteers in community organizations. After seeing all the items Lori found in Chicago, Noel agreed that adding the development of Little Hipster to her project list would both satisfy her interest in engineering through website design and allow for her friends and others without access to these boutiques to find fashionable items easily.
