Retailer Report: Christine Campbell, Crimson Mim

from www.dailyfrontrow.com

When former tech guru Christine Campbell opened Crimson Mim, her Los Altos, CA boutique pioneering emerging accessory designers, in 2005, there weren't many places to buy Loeffler Randall. After successfully navigating the recession, Campbell opened a second location at Town & Country Village in nearby Palo Alto just last month, giving the locals the clothes they always wanted (but couldn't find). With a memorable name (an homage to Campbell's grandmother and her favorite color) and a stable of devoted clients, this little boutique that could is poised to be a big player in the Bay Area retail scene.
