Definitely not. Reasons:

Chinese site registered in Dec 2012 to a Chinese citizen
No geographical address
No landline
Email contact form only
Products likely to be fakes and could be seized by customs

Using a distinctly fake looking adress

Either will be fakes or you'll get nothing at all.

Well dodgy.

OP, any clothes site with 'cheap' in their tag line is pretty much guaranteed to be a Chinese knock-off site that will either send you shoddy fakes or take your money and send you nothing.

Any website that has no contact details is to be avoided. Any website that has bad grammar and spelling give a wide berth. If it sounds too good to be true. it usually is.

Either go to the offical Karen Millen site or trawl ebay of TKMaxx if you want a safe bargain.

I seem to remember seeing something online from Karen Millen asking people to report fake sites to them - there are a lot for some reason.

Good luck with that...

Said it before, but there really does need to be a sticky about these dodgy counterfeit sites.

Your best bet will be if it doesn't turn up in 14 days doing a chargeback on your card for non-delivery.

If it does turn up then it will be a lot harder as you will be relying on the card provider refunding for it being a fake (item not as described) and they will likely want you to return it to the merchant.

Having anything other than brandname.com or brandname.co.uk should ring alarm bells instantly. Avoid brandname2u.com, brandnameonline.com, brandnamedirect.com, brandname.uk.com, brandname.net etc.

Of course its not foolproof and you should do further checks but its a good sign that a site is fake.
