On Monday, May 2, Kohl's hosted an exclusive press preview in New York City for the Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony Collections, which we first heard about here. The affordable collection of apparel, accessories and home decor will launch Fall 2011, exclusively at Kohl's stores and kohls.com.

Watch the short video above to hear J. Lo and Marc talk a little bit about their vision for the collection, plus hear what fashion editors like Nina Garcia think of this celebrity powerhouse fashion line.

I was skeptical at first but I feel like I've gotten to "know" J. Lo and Marc as a couple more since she's been on Idol and I'm feeling pretty confident that this likeable husband-and-wife-duo are going to deliver a great collection that Kohl's customers will love. What do you think?

Earlier this week, I checked out the Calypso St. Barth for Target collection and tried on a dozen or so dresses, tunics, bathing suits and the like. Each piece instantly whisked me away to beachy retreats along distant coasts (fashion can do that, you know). My favorites pieces on the racks were the colorful silk tunics with cool detailing like sequin trim or crochet accents. These ran true to size (or even a bit snug - I appreciate that the tunics are fitted for a slim, non-muumuu look but the armholes were a tad tight and there's not much give with fabrics like silk, cotton and linen. Of course, I'm not complaining about the awesome fabrics. It's great to see Calypso use natural, breathable fibers for a resort collection instead of polyester. That would have been disastrous.
