I am a bit late to join this conversation.... (very busy at work)... I am also a fan of N&B and have been a VIP member for almost 5 years since I have my daughter.
Its clothes are really attractive (though expensive) especially for girls. I also bought for my boys 2 years ago and the clothes for boys are smart too (especially the last year winter collections, the coats are extremely smart but they were sold out very shortly) Start from last year, I also bought for myself as some styles are also trendy for adult. So I can pass my clothes to my girl when she grows up
For its quality, some are good but not all, even most of the items were dried clean (never wet clean).
Now, I also go to another shop "Marco & Marni", the clothes are nice too and $ are comparable to NB...
I haven't been to NB these months but saw its catagories, seems the clothes are less attractive than previous years.....
