yet not the clothes!
I say this as being trying to sell a new MK garment on eBay for months now. Started the price high originally (but not high for MK!) now it's at Primark prices. No interest despite being a lovely (and seasonal) garment.
I don't get it. I thought if it was one of the 'current' names for bags and watches, it would be the same for the clothes?
but, obviously not.
I remember last Christmas everybody wanting the bag or the watch. It's not that far on in the year or is fashion really that fickle?!

I complimented a colleague on her gorgeous Navy tote this week and was shocked to find it was an MK bag - I've always dismissed them as too much blingy hardware and obvious branding before. It was very nice and classic.

Agree that the tacky gold branding is the problem with the bags.

I thought some of the MK watches I've seen online looked quite nice, though. Then again, my current watch is a Guess one, so maybe I have tacky watch taste. Sad

(It's plain chunky silver and the Guess logo is quite discreet, though...)

Some of the MK stuff is ok I have a double wrap leather wrist watch which is not oversized. It is lovely though I have to replace the strap.
