FORT GREENE — Little locals are losing a fashion destination.

My Brooklyn Baby, which sells Biggie-inspired bibs and other baby stuff with a Kings County bent, will close August 15 after four years on Fulton Street.

 

Owner Darcy Le Fleming wrote on her blog that she is pregnant with her second child and that closing the storefront made sense for her personally. She will continue to sell her Brooklyn-inspired baby clothes and gifts on the web.

“In the last four years, the way people shop has changed massively and for me, it just makes more sense to connect to my customers via the internet without the overhead and time consumption that comes with operating a brick and mortar shop,” Le Fleming wrote.
 

 

I just realized that is has been at least 20 weeks since I posted a pic of myself... Surprise! #20weeks
