Off the Rack: LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl's May Highlights




During a quick trip to Kohl's last week to buy a birthday present for a one-year old, I couldn't resist scoping out the latest LC Lauren Conrad collection offerings. I didn't have time to try anything on, but I snapped these pics to show you what you might find at your local store: Lots of easy-to-wear tops, casual dresses, and shorts that are perfect for spring and summer. Yet again, LC delivers modern, feminine styles that are sweet but not precious. It's the little details that make this line so appealing - a floral lining on a blush blazer, a cotton tank with artsy bow applique. The color palette and prints are tasteful, too, like the stripe halter maxi dress above. It's just really pretty and chic, the type of dress that's guaranteed to get you noticed for all the right reasons. If you can't get enough Lauren Conrad, check out her new beauty website, too.

Lunch Hour Shopping: Seven for All Mankind at Gilt




LA-based denim brand Seven for All Mankind is having a big sale today at noon on Gilt Groupe. Pick up a pair of their classic wide legs or skinnies for around $100 (much less than you'd pay at a department store). The sale also includes cool shorts, a few dresses, tops and skirts, too. I have one pair of Sevens and they are among my favorite pairs of jeans, I got them on sale of course but never regretted the "splurge"!
