Store Opening: Michael Kors in the Glendale Galleria

michaelkorsKP062608Last night, Michael Kors and Lucky Magazine threw a bash in the Galleria honoring the opening of their newest store.  Living up to expectations, it was all gorgeous bags and shoes, fabulous cocktails and super markdowns.

When I walked in, I was handed a cocktail and asked if I wanted a stylist to choose an outfit for me.  As I begged no, I watched women have their photos taken for the Lucky Magazine website.  Super cute stuff but I’m way too shy for that so I hung back and lusted over the bags.  Because I have a special problem where I always pick the most expensive thing in the store, the first one I honed in on was a python hinge clutch that retails for just under a grand.  Hmmmm…starving artist salary here, do I need a mega clutch?  That would be no.  The next one I picked up was from a special collection.  It was beautiful…the size of a letter with a chain handle.  It was also $600.  So, okay, okay, I couldn’t afford to buy what I wanted, but I truly enjoyed looking.

There was clothing, of course, but it really took a backseat to the bags and shoes.  Ah, the bags…. gleaming and back-lit, begging to be taken home like puppies in the pound.   I’m okay.  Really.  I’ll be fine.  Couple more free cocktails and I’ll live.

    Interesting they chose to open in Glendale Galleria and not the Glendale Americana. Quite a coup for the Galleria.
