Estella customer for life! Originally received an Estella gift box for my baby shower and was blown away by the adorable and unique NYC themed pieces. A few months later, I decided to gift some items to a friend who is expecting (she loved it also!) and I saw the swaddle. I had to have it. The price point is comparable to other popular name brands for the same item but the unique NYC theme and use of soft colors makes it a winner. I’ll be an Estella customer for life!
