Karen Millen heads to New York
Karen Millen is an upmarket British label for women and one of my favourites. They have great ensembles, they don't skimp on the quality of their fabrics and their clothes are well made. No threads or crooked stitching to be seen here folks. I wore a Karen Millen top during one of my birthday dinners last week and several people commented on it. The detail was simply stunning. If you haven't been into one of their stores, you can expect to walk in, find a beautiful dress and before you leave, you will probably pick up a matching bag and shoes in the same fabric or colour. When I lived in High Street Kensington in London, I used to walk past Karen Millen everyday and their windows changed so often that it was hard to resist the temptation to buy something new. They just reeled customers right into the store. I suspect the same will happen to the ladies of New York who are about to have their first Karen Millen experience next month. The company plans to open up to 75 shops in the US within the next 3 years. In Australia, Karen Millen has already been embraced in the shopping capitals with more shops due to open soon.
