The U.K. accessories brand worn by boldfacers such as Kate Middleton and Rihanna opens its first NYC store, after unveiling two California locations last year. The flashy space features the company’s trademark shoe chandelier in the window, with plush couches at the back of the store for trying on the ultratrendy footwear designed by Rebecca Farrar-Hockley. Glass shelves hold styles that run the gamut from classic (pin-heeled suede pumps, $300) to edgy (studded motorcycle boots, $290). Standouts for guys include neon-studded loafers ($215) and suede desert boots ($200). We’re partial to the kick-ass accoutrements, such as perforated-leather totes ($380) and spike statement necklaces ($155).
