New Boutique in Historic Downtown Clarksville
October 1, 2011
Couture Crush a new style icon
Clarksville, TN – Kaley Drew, a current APSU senior and Clarksville native, is launching a new fashion boutique in Historic Downtown Clarksville. Couture Crush is set to be the leader in fashion for women’s clothing in Clarksville and will feature clothing, accessories and much more.
Most girls Kaley’s age are still trying to figure out what they want to be when they grow up, but Kaley has known since she was little. “When I was 9, I began a small cottage business called “Girlfriends Forever”. I made jewelry and fashion accessories and sold them at a local craft fair,” remembers Kaley. As she grew older, her entrepreneurial spirit remained, as did her love for fashion. All this comes together to create Couture Crush.
