"Thank you for the lovely announcement. I love the way you described your
Autumn Organizing Frenzy. I have relocated down to Sarasota, FL. but
still will keep in close touch with the Upper Westside neighborhood
whenever I shall be in town. I have such fond memories of my daughter
Natasha growing up in many of KARIN ALEXIS's signature outfits and her
photo albums will be a chronicle of your collectibles, a very special
keepsake. There was this multi-pattern patched quilt with navy pencil
stripes amongst whimsical Asian prints that I have made a shadow box to
frame as a display.
I look forward to visiting your new store. Keep up the beautiful work
that has brought so much joy to my family and friends. Sincerely,"
-Irene - Sarasota, FL
"I've been a customer of Karin's since she first opened her unique children's
clothing store at 83/84th Amsterdam several years ago! The patterns are sweet and interesting with a vintage flair and her materials wash so beautifully!
She has great burp clothes, stroller blankets and gift items, too! I always find myself at Karin Alexis when another friend has a baby girl -----the blankets and tutus are adorable! I remember as a new mom, I was always looking for different places to shop besides the typical department stores or overpriced boutiques."
-Lori Beth - New York |
