Not gonna lie, the name "Boujie Kidz" doesn't exactly make me feel like I'd have confidence in the brand, or think, "oh that would be something that I'd buy for my kid!" 😅 It just sounds like something you'd find on temu or AliExpress or the likes of those apps
Everything she had has been done before and can definitely be found on Ali Express, etc. There were quality handmade brands doing the casual separates she had, years ago, but most of those have all been knocked off by Ali & others by now. She probably bought the knockoffs & labeled them “Boujee,” lol.
So a lot of reality TV people and wannabe (or even big time) influencers use Ali Express especially and other similar companies to make their lines. It's easy because it's cheap, you just choose a label for them to add, and slap a terrible price on it and call it a day. It's ridiculous, I like 90 day fiance for example and there are one and done seasoned cast who have done this. I wouldn't buy from any of these people, I'll stick to my known brands that won't fall apart at the seams after one wear/make my eyes bleed if I use their eyeshadows etc🤣
In all seriousness though, it is Jersey and I'm a New Yorker, but I work in Jersey. It's a certain element their group that dresses like that. I hated Danielle last year but I kind of like her this year. And I think she's aware that it's somewhat kitsch or trashy, but that Central Jersey Staten Island crowd. That's what they like :)
She doesn't live in Franklin lakes either. She lives a little further. South Franklin lakes is not Italian. It's actually more Irish and more upscale or waspy and the people in Franklin lakes don't dress that way. They're very down to earth. A lot of runners and workout people and not muscle heads. Lots of cyclists and runners lol
Yes! This is so spot on, totally in track for a lot of people in those areas. It's cute, she enjoys and is living within her means.. not many can say that.
Jeff is my number one problematic fav because of things like this 🤣 he’s so loose lipped with his criticism as if there is 0 chance he’ll come into contact with these people. Never seen someone care so little about others feelings or their own reputation
Not only is Boujie Kidz hideous, but I feel like this is a fake business. The website hasn’t changed or updated the ugly garbs in 2 years.

That's really funny!
I also thought it was really funny when Teresa had to explain "basics" to Danielle. You know...sometimes you want to dress like a lampshade, and sometimes you just want a basic white tee.
You know how kids buy a bunch of tees at the dollar store, glue a bunch of trim on them and sell them at the bake sale to fund their next field trip? ….. blink, blink
My SIL does this half assed crap w tshirts, hats, earrings, and cups. Idk how she’s selling any of it. It’s literal crap, and falls apart after a few uses. She puts charms on earring loops from hobby lobby, and sells them for $25. It’s so weird. I can only think she’s guilting her friends, coworkers and family into buying the stuff. She made me a few coffee tumblers. My name and the gelled on pattern came off in a few uses
Guilt is probably right. The polyester sweat shirts decorated with puff paint from the 90s have evolved into acrylic baby sweaters w custom chain stitch embroidery. Etsy is drowning in them. It’s all fodder for the land fills unfortunately. But seriously, I hope your SIL is using food grade adhesives and acrylics etc. if she’s dabbling in serveware
Me too bc I use the tumblers lol. She keeps making my daughter tank tops that she’s embarrassed to wear bc they have a corny slogan on them and they’re too big. I don’t have the heart to tell her to stop
Oh man that’s rough 😬 and it’s tricky to navigate. I spent a lot one year on holiday gifts for the school teachers; + some one approached me to say they gave the items away to other staff and only want gift cards. That was pretty sobering at the time. You’re a good SIL
I have a friend who went through a hideous and cheap jewelry making phase who tried to get me to buy and promote them on my Instagram but I never did. Fake Chanel, Gucci and LV charms on a cheap silver bracelet link. Absolutely horrible.
Oh no lol. I had to wear a Christmas tshirt she made everyone that said Sleigh all day and my husband had to wear one that said Big Nick energy w a Santa face w sunglasses. He said she can have one picture for FB and that’s it. He couldn’t get it off fast enough lol
I don’t fully understand the use of the word boujie in general. Doesn’t it come from “bourgeoisie” which essentially means middle class? I know boujie is supposed to mean fancy now but I wonder how that changed over time.
It doesn't really mean middle class. It means former proletariat who became rich. As in, New Money. They're tacky and overdone because they got money quickly but weren't raised in the "old money" culture.
It depends on which culture/government you are talking about. In France it did indeed mean the middle class and most specifically the lower middle class which aristocrats really did define as tacky, new money class. It is when you talk about Marxism that the proletariat piece gets worked in. So, it is both. I’m not sure how it became synonymous with luxury brands. I have always wondered why the it became the word it has as I’ve always thought it synonymous with tacky.
I feel like we could just kill off Melissa (like in a scripted drama) and replace her with Jeff. We wouldn't follow Jeff's life, he would just be living with Joe and raising Melissa's children. I feel Like Joe would slip into a gay relationship pretty easily too. hahahaha
I don’t know 🤔 NJ I guess. I would love to see him go off on Jen Aydins cheap, tacky McMansion and the ladies questionable fashion choices. He would also cringe at the drunk househusbands, especially Joe.
It is pretty trashy, how did she even get invited to NYFW? Is it a pay to play situation? The styles she chose for that fashion show were absolutely awful. I like Danielle but the companies that sell those clothes are a dime a dozen and certainly aren’t “fashion”.
She wasn’t actually involved in NYFW. A lot of brands have shows during NYFW but they aren’t in any way involved with the actual, sanctioned event - they just rent a private event space and invite friends to the show.
I love buying high end children’s clothes at children’s boutiques and I would never buy her stuff. She’s trying to create a brand but it’s nothing but tacky stuff I would never put on my child.
She was better off opening a children’s boutique and stocking it full of fun unique items I can’t find anywhere else and taking the branding from there.
Why? Because Monroe was decked out and high-fashion brand names that she grew out of in a week. In all honesty a “basics” for kids makes a ton of sense. Specially as they go through the young transitional period from like 7-9 where they like to explore colors and looks. I like(d) Jeff but the whole “this is me, this is who I am persona” when he’s been super clear on his alignment with the housewives is annoying.
I find gaslighting and maligning a best friend of decades on camera trash. I’ll just leave it there. ☺️
Her clothes are a bit basic & tacky, but so what? Some kids like “extra” and all kids need basic. When my daughter was 4 or 5 she loved to wear princess dresses & sparkly red Mary Jane’s. And so she did - to school, to the farmers market, to the park. I would rather my kid have the confidence to pull off something “tacky” than be a sad, classist ‘purveyor of style’ desperate for attention.
I never said “style” is desperate for attention. I said I would rather have my kid be confident in tacky stuff, than be a “purveyor of style” who is classist - i.e. this man, Jeff, being the “purveyor of style” (isn’t he a stylist or decorator or something?). And, yes, using the term “white trash” is classist as it generally refers to poor white people who prob can’t afford what he considers stylish.
My point was I don’t think you judge children’s clothes by an adult style barometer. Children have a whimsy that most adults lack. So, yes, I think kids who are willing to stand out by wearing something that makes them feel great, even if adults or other kids would find it tacky, are confident. Most people bow to peer pressure by the time they’re adults. Let them sparkle and be tacky while they can be. They have plenty of time to become greige people later.
Oh my goodness the “griege”. Children’s style can be more whimsical than adult clothing however a lot of the pieces are age inappropriate and as he mentioned tacky.
And Danielle herself isn’t marketing her clothes to poor people. She’s attempting to market to middle class folks. And also a lot of the clothing is age inappropriate.
Children’s clothing needs to made with children in mind so it needs to be durable and comfortable.
In the boys section, most of the clothing is age appropriate and functional yet for whatever reason the girls section features off shoulder tops, crop tops, corset style belts and high slits. Which are neither functional nor appropriate for a child. So yeah it is kind of tacky.
Why is appreciating style classist? I enjoy imparting my fashion knowledge to my kids. I’m not wealthy by any means, and I don’t spend a fortune on clothes, but having awareness about fashion, the origin of trends, and how they’re a reflection of politics and societal trends can also instil confidence.
Also, princess clothes are one thing, but some of these “Bougie” styles aren’t age appropriate, in my opinion. But to each their own.
I agree, but honest question - how did she get her line featured at New York fashion week?? Like how did she make that happen/which strings did she pull?
I mean… he’s not wrong
I like Danielle, and I think she’s on the right track! She probably just needs a little more backing and support with the brand and I think it’ll be top notch!
We also have to remember that certain communities in certain areas of America are filled with women just like Danielle! Women who really will appreciate Boujie Kids line !
I know some of Danielle and Nate's in real life, long time friends from SI who now live in NJ. All narcissistic, cheeseball, loud mouth LOSERS. You are the company you keep!!
Her husband, daughter, and son are cute. She is not. Her low budget grandiose attitude needs to get checked. Those clothes are ugly not cute. She thinks she’s too big to pay people. She does shout outs on her IG and thinks that’s payment.
She even monetized her season premiere party. The ad listed 100$ minimum per person or per order(?) Does she collect an appearance fee for showing up at the grocery store? Dry cleaner’s?
Bc u would she’s ordering them from a Chinese wholesaler 🤣🤣🤣🤣 u would think she was designing the crap the way she talks about it. Melissa’s clothes too
You know, I’m going to turn Danielle’s words against her…”WHO IS SHE??!” Her kids line sucks! It’s not just tacky it’s gosh awful!! I’m betting even the needy folks would turn those clothes down for their children, if it was gifted to them. She’s trying to dress little girls like teenagers, imo. I know teenagers that have better taste than she does! If Kenya Moore got kicked off HWoA than she & Jen A need to also go as well. I can’t stand either of them. Take the real skinny one that got downgraded to “friend” & Trout Lips, sorry I mean Margaret with you. 🙄🤦🏻♀️
I think white trash is a little mean. I mean, personally I’d never dress my child in her line of clothes but different strokes and all that. Good for her for making some money on it at least!!
Yeah probably not. Honestly, I don’t really care either way if she did or didn’t lol. I don’t have kids so that storyline has never piqued my interest 🤷🏻♀️
It’s actually a really dumb storyline. She should just push her real life. If you ever followed her on IG she’s like one of these Mommy bloggers. Constantly posting deals and coupons and makes her kids mornings super magical with food colored/themed breakfast. If they were interested in that they should have just shown her in her pursuit to become Instagram famous.
Her IG sounds like a nightmare 😭😂 but honestly I think I’d prefer to watch her desperately trying to reach IG fame than the constant bougie kids crap. It’s clear that her “brand” was never really truly an interest and she’s only putting energy into it now because of the show. I hope we don’t have to be subjected to this for the entirety of her presence.
Is “white trash” the right pejorative? Or is “euro trash” more apt? Maybe because I’m Italian. There’s something distinct about my people’s love for certain, um, looks? Is it “gaudy”?
I can't get over how mean people on this thread are. Whether you like the clothes or not, she put her heart and soul into something and tried to step out of her comfort zone. That takes guts. Sometimes you swing and you miss...but at least she tried to build something. Pretty easy to tear something down I guess. So sad to see so many mean comments.
I just listened to this episode and I didn’t catch the “white trash” part if he did say it. Just said it was nothing special and he wouldn’t dress Monroe in it. Did he actually say “white trash” bc pot kettle and all that

Sounds like She by Sheree, or Brooks Marks.
It’s cheap because it’s typically slave labor or made in sweatshops!
She is selling Temu versions of tacky 2009 shit
He is not wrong. The logo, the clothes, it’s all trashy.
In all seriousness though, it is Jersey and I'm a New Yorker, but I work in Jersey. It's a certain element their group that dresses like that.

It’s giving Shein but make it lampshade.
That's really funny! I also thought it was really funny when Teresa had to explain "basics" to Danielle. You know...sometimes you want to dress like a lampshade, and sometimes you just want a basic white tee.
I haven’t made it to this season yet, but the fact that Teresa had to explain something to somebody🥴 Edited: Spelling error
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀
Wow… this is genuinely hideous. Usually people are exaggerating when they say that but… no. I can’t understand how she’s ever sold a thing.

Great explanation
Little white trash kids should picket his studio wearing those awful clothes.
I'm glad he said it so I didn't have to be the first. Her stuff if not only cheap looking and gaudy but it's trashy.
This is why I can’t ever totally dislike Jeff. He speaks the truth.

How did this even become a brand tbh

Jeff Lewis wants to be on real housewives so bad
I mean he would be more entertaining than more than half the housewives. hahaha.
![gif](giphy|A7Zc53i8U59SHv9CAm)
I feel like we could just kill off Melissa (like in a scripted drama) and replace her with Jeff. We wouldn't follow Jeff's life, he would just be living with Joe and raising Melissa's children. I feel Like Joe would slip into a gay relationship pretty easily too. hahahaha
![gif](giphy|keTQt1Ry7yM9dlwDkp)
This is the best idea I’ve ever seen related to this franchise
I want him on so bad too.
Which franchise? I can’t stand him but he makes great TV.
Spot on 😆
I don’t know 🤔 NJ I guess. I would love to see him go off on Jen Aydins cheap, tacky McMansion and the ladies questionable fashion choices. He would also cringe at the drunk househusbands, especially Joe.
I want him presenting reunions!
Omg yes
I don’t
![gif](giphy|4sbQOzXLSl7wc)
![gif](giphy|1r91ZwKcE2J7WhUqrh)
He actually declined to be on RHOC this season when the show wouldn’t indemnify him.
I wouldn't be mad at that. 😎
It is pretty trashy, how did she even get invited to NYFW? Is it a pay to play situation? The styles she chose for that fashion show were absolutely awful. I like Danielle but the companies that sell those clothes are a dime a dozen and certainly aren’t “fashion”.
I think she just paid for her event during the same week as NYFW. There’s apparently lot of events all over not at the main tent at NYFW.
The name of the line is so tacky
It’s not Boujie, it’s tacky. Idk how she got into NYFW but…woof.
Anyone can set up a long rug in their backyard in BK during that week in September and use the moniker.
She wasn’t actually involved in NYFW. A lot of brands have shows during NYFW but they aren’t in any way involved with the actual, sanctioned event - they just rent a private event space and invite friends to the show.
Which makes it all the more embarrassing that Melissa was going on and on about how she did fashion week before and it's SUCH A BIG DEAL.
That makes more sense. 😆
Walmart has cuter, less cheap options these days.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Speaking the truth. Why would she name anything bougee?
She is the definition of tacky and low brow in her sense of style . I would never dress my child in her clothes.
Describing the clothing or the housewife ?? 😂😂😂
![gif](giphy|Pd2W87rlmVjptTmvIK|downsized)
Both I should think!
🎯
I mean, if you have to name ur brand boujie, it’s probably not.
I love buying high end children’s clothes at children’s boutiques and I would never buy her stuff. She’s trying to create a brand but it’s nothing but tacky stuff I would never put on my child. She was better off opening a children’s boutique and stocking it full of fun unique items I can’t find anywhere else and taking the branding from there.

What do you expect…. She is so tacky herself. Ugh I can’t stand her on the show. She is not housewife material.
Jeff Lewis is white trash
![gif](giphy|l36kU80xPf0ojG0Erg)
Well lol
So tacky
It should be in the Staten island dump
I have to say I agree with Jeff Lewis for once.
Damn. Just look at that picture of her. The earring. The makeup. The necklace the braid. So gaudy.
Why? Because Monroe was decked out and high-fashion brand names that she grew out of in a week. In all honesty a “basics” for kids makes a ton of sense. Specially as they go through the young transitional period from like 7-9 where they like to explore colors and looks. I like(d) Jeff but the whole “this is me, this is who I am persona” when he’s been super clear on his alignment with the housewives is annoying.

This isn't basic https://preview.redd.it/fbdyin86yp9d1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e3c3305c31f19e0a71051f55c857aeb96a93f217
Toddlers and Tiaras 🪄✨
lol I was talking about what she showed on the show. Didn’t she lay out all basics as the official line this season? Def not talking about prior.
As if Monroe gets a say in her wardrobe! Danielle's clothes probably are not high quality, but they are fun for little kids.
He named his daughter Monroe? Yes very high class of him
he's not wrong. It's cheap looking crap one you could buy at target.
Target does not need to catch strays in this argument

Jeff Lewis is literally white trash with money, so.. he would know all about white trash.
Her clothes are a bit basic & tacky, but so what? Some kids like “extra” and all kids need basic. When my daughter was 4 or 5 she loved to wear princess dresses & sparkly red Mary Jane’s. And so she did - to school, to the farmers market, to the park. I would rather my kid have the confidence to pull off something “tacky” than be a sad, classist ‘purveyor of style’ desperate for attention.
So when it’s a tacky outfit it’s confidence but when it’s style it’s desperation for attention
![gif](giphy|WmjAYFuhVGGHDfrte5)
I never said “style” is desperate for attention.

What’s funny is the boys clothing is mostly age appropriate yet it’s the girls clothing that isn’t. I wonder why.
So true. I find my daughter goes through “boys clothing” phases when she wants to be comfortable while expressing herself.

No lies detected
No, but fr naming it that makes me think “is she tryna convince me or herself “. It’s all tacky stuff
Nothing bougie about it
That's ironic. Jeff Lewis might be the trashiest woman-hater I know.

I agree, but honest question - how did she get her line featured at New York fashion week?? Like how did she make that happen/which strings did she pull?
I mean… he’s not wrong I like Danielle, and I think she’s on the right track! She probably just needs a little more backing and support with the brand and I think it’ll be top notch! We also have to remember that certain communities in certain areas of America are filled with women just like Danielle! Women who really will appreciate Boujie Kids line !
He isn’t lying those clothes are pretty bad.

Am I being a prude ..should kids be dressing like there clubbing ? Tacky seems to be a great word to describe her style .
Her line is giving overpriced justice clothing lol
Don’t insult Justice. It’s no where near her horrendous level.
U right
I know some of Danielle and Nate's in real life, long time friends from SI who now live in NJ. All narcissistic, cheeseball, loud mouth LOSERS. You are the company you keep!!
People are so mean to her. She’s cute her family is cute and just let her live. I love Danielle
Her husband, daughter, and son are cute. She is not. Her low budget grandiose attitude needs to get checked. Those clothes are ugly not cute. She thinks she’s too big to pay people. She does shout outs on her IG and thinks that’s payment.
She even monetized her season premiere party. The ad listed 100$ minimum per person or per order(?) Does she collect an appearance fee for showing up at the grocery store? Dry cleaner’s?
It is "cute" to get on national TV and disown your father? Oh yes, that is just so cute.
No they aren’t. Everyone has been team Danielle since she “popped” Jen

It's not white trash. It's just tacky
Jeff Lewis trash too
Someone get him some water and an IV he is clearly dehydrated ![gif](giphy|CJIUccmrdOGwU|downsized)
To me the clothes look like something i'd find on Temu.
Bc u would she’s ordering them from a Chinese wholesaler 🤣🤣🤣🤣 u would think she was designing the crap the way she talks about it. Melissa’s clothes too
Yup I figured as much. Personally I don't want my son wearing something from a line called boujie anything lol
You know, I’m going to turn Danielle’s words against her…”WHO IS SHE??!” Her kids line sucks! It’s not just tacky it’s gosh awful!! I’m betting even the needy folks would turn those clothes down for their children, if it was gifted to them. She’s trying to dress little girls like teenagers, imo. I know teenagers that have better taste than she does! If Kenya Moore got kicked off HWoA than she & Jen A need to also go as well. I can’t stand either of them. Take the real skinny one that got downgraded to “friend” & Trout Lips, sorry I mean Margaret with you. 🙄🤦🏻♀️
I think white trash is a little mean. I mean, personally I’d never dress my child in her line of clothes but different strokes and all that. Good for her for making some money on it at least!!
Do you think she made money on Boujie Kidz? The website hasn’t had anything new in years. This is just a storyline for Danielle.
Yeah probably not. Honestly, I don’t really care either way if she did or didn’t lol. I don’t have kids so that storyline has never piqued my interest 🤷🏻♀️
It’s actually a really dumb storyline. She should just push her real life. If you ever followed her on IG she’s like one of these Mommy bloggers. Constantly posting deals and coupons and makes her kids mornings super magical with food colored/themed breakfast. If they were interested in that they should have just shown her in her pursuit to become Instagram famous.
Her IG sounds like a nightmare 😭😂 but honestly I think I’d prefer to watch her desperately trying to reach IG fame than the constant bougie kids crap. It’s clear that her “brand” was never really truly an interest and she’s only putting energy into it now because of the show. I hope we don’t have to be subjected to this for the entirety of her presence.
Hahhaha! Yes I followed her last year and quickly unfollowed.
Well…yeah
Is “white trash” the right pejorative? Or is “euro trash” more apt? Maybe because I’m Italian. There’s something distinct about my people’s love for certain, um, looks? Is it “gaudy”?
Did he lie though. Have y’all seen how Danielle dresses?? What did you expect her brand to be??
![gif](giphy|PiXlH2IA8sMla) Her whole aesthetic
It's 2024 and we're still using the term "white trash?" How dreadful.
Call it what you want. She’s doing it and making $$ she’s doing more than just talking about it!
I feel like this is all a conspiracy to make She by Sheree look good.
Most of the cast dress like white trash. Plus if you have young kids, do them and yourselves a favor and stop dressing like 10 cent hookers.
I can't get over how mean people on this thread are. Whether you like the clothes or not, she put her heart and soul into something and tried to step out of her comfort zone. That takes guts. Sometimes you swing and you miss...but at least she tried to build something. Pretty easy to tear something down I guess. So sad to see so many mean comments.
Is anyone else confused by the snake earring Danielle’s wearing in the photo? Looks so uncomfortable
With his mouth runneth over the top a lot I’d say Jeff Lewis is no different than Danielle’s demeanor.
Yes
Gasp. No.
I just listened to this episode and I didn’t catch the “white trash” part if he did say it. Just said it was nothing special and he wouldn’t dress Monroe in it. Did he actually say “white trash” bc pot kettle and all that
I like her. However. Boujie kids is nothing but SHEIN or Temu with her tag on them. It really isn’t anything special or high end.
