Consider Burberry London the quieter, more demure sister in the Burberry family tree. She’s elegant but sartorial, modern but timeless… and she’s never late for a meeting. She’s the friend who, never forgetting your birthday, sends a letterpress hand-written card — by mail — to your home address. She prefers lunch conversations to text messages, carefully crafted umbrellas to those hurriedly picked up from the guy on the corner, and expertly-stitched suits, jackets and dresses. This is the lady who hosted the bridal shower and completed Monday morning’s major presentation during the same weekend. There is never a dish in her sink.

Of course she’ll be at our Burberry London shop opening this week (it’s our only complete Burberry shop in the store; for more details about it, call 212 872 2830). Featuring a collection of iconic trenches and perfectly tailored separates, our new Burberry London shop has what your closet’s been yearning for: essentials. To achieve the Burberry London look, consider pieces like their Skinny Ankle-Zip Pants, knit tops & iconic trench coats. Another closet essential is their black boot cut pant, flaring at just the right point to make your legs long and lean. If Christopher Bailey’s printed Spring 2012 Burberry Prosum Collection struck your fancy, then try the Geometric Print Silk Dress or Stitched Jacquard Pencil Skirt. Complete this tailored look with clean accessories, a shoe that reads confidence and an unbuttoned, haphazardly-tied Burberry London trench coat.
