Kohls Anniversary Sale Going On Now Through Sept. 27




This morning I stopped by my nearest Kohl's store to check out the new LC Lauren Conrad Collection. The bad news: They don't carry it (yet). The good news: I realized the Kohl's Anniversary Sale is going on NOW! Take an extra 15%, 20% or 30% off everything in stores or online at Kohls.com when you use your Kohl's charge now through Wednesday, September 23. Plus, get $10 Kohl's Cash for every $50 you spend. What's more, you'll get free standard shipping online when you spend $75 or more (after all discounts taken). These heavy discounts happen 12 times a year at Kohl's, so smart Kohl's shoppers will do the bulk of their shopping during these sales. Not sure what to buy? Try a statement necklace from Simply Vera Vera Wang; a leopard print top by Chaps; a boyfriend cardigan or cross-body bag from ELLE. Happy shopping!

Wear your military jacket to work with a nice blouse and dark trouser jeans; on a hot date with a girly dress and ankle boots; or to run errands with boots, jeans and a tee. The possibilities are endless!
