A few days ago I popped into a Kmart store in New York City to check out what was new (and to cool off from the exhausting heat). I found some of the most agreeable fashions near the entrance from Route 66. This brand is targeted towards teens, but there were a lot of cute tees, tanks, shorts, jeans and pants priced under $20 that anyone could work into their wardrobe. I liked a striped neutral tank with neon lace detailing and a dark-denim jean jacket, a great wardrobe staple. Moving on, I saw some cute blouses, skirts and dresses from the Attention and Apostophe lines. I really wanted to buy some printed shorts and a colorful romper (you see them so often in the city, it's kinda contagious) but I had an event to attend and I didn't want to show up with an armful of shopping bags. Next time! Click through for more photos. Anything catch your eye?

Back in April, I had the magical experience of previewing the White by Vera Wang for David's Bridal Fall 2011 collection in New York City. With her Fall collection, Vera Wang presents seven new bridal gown styles, priced between $600-$1,200. Styles range from a romantic strapless ball gown with corded lace bodice and tossed tulle skirt to A-line, column and mermaid silhouettes for the classic modern bride. The Fall collection also marks the highly anticipated debut of seven bridesmaids dresses (all under $200) and shoes (under $100).
