Here's My Milly for Kohl's Review Complete with In-Store Photos and Dressing Room Selfies


Milly for Kohl's

Yesterday I managed to time my son's sometimes-nap with a little shopping trip to Kohl's, where I scoped out the new Milly for DesigNation collection. While my store didn't have a huge selection, I was able to try on a few dresses and assess the quality and sizing. Here's what you need to know: Fit is true to size (similar to Kohl's ELLE brand). The fabrics feel soft and substantial. I had trouble with some zippers but no deal breakers with quality or fit. Be careful to note that some pieces which look like Milly are in fact part of the ELLE collection (like the lemon dress and the matching crop-top skirt sets you'll see featured below). The similarities are...awkward. But if you find yourself preferring some of the ELLE pieces, no harm in that!

Selena Gomez looks effortlessly sexy in a grey jersey tank dress paired with unexpected extras, like combat boots, a geek-chic doctor bag, and bomber jacket, casually draped over the shoulders. We love the pop of color on her lips and cool sunnies, too. Can we please borrow just an ounce of this girl's cool factor?

Eva Longoria launches a new home collection exclusively at JCP!

Actress and stylemaker Eva Longoria has joined forces with JCPenney to unveil her first home collection, Eva Longoria Home. During a press preview earlier this month, I got to check out pieces from the collection, which currently includes beautiful bedding and window treatments featuring global-inspired prints. There's Marrakech in a palette of graphic black and white, Adana, a Mediterranean escape of rich shades of coastal blue and crisp whites, and Mireles, reminiscent of Spanish tiles in soft gray, yellow and white.
