Designers making their debuts at retail stores

I made a trip to J.C. Penney yesterday to check out the designer lower-priced lines. Following are the designers featured.

  1. Charlotte Ronson-there were lots of skinny jeans, tunics, dresses and cute tops. Prices range from $20 to $49.99. (new to the store)
  2. Allan B. by Allan Schwartz-lots of color! Maxi dresses, "pucci-ish" looking tops great tanks, tops and bubble hem dresses. (new to the store)
  3. Nicole Miller as been designing for J.C. Penney for quite some time now. Her tops are always colorful and floaty. Both her jeweled sandals and handbags also caught my eye.
  4. The Bisou Bisou line by Michelle Bohbot never fails to disappoint. There a black Jumpsuit from that line that I simply must have!
  5. Last and certainly not least is Kimora Simmons' line for J.C. Penney called "fabulosity". I love her denim vests and high-waisted jeans.

Target also has some designer offerings, which is a part of their Go International program.

  1. Erickson Beamon- debuts in March with colored gem stone cuffs, earrings and necklaces.
  2. Alexander McQueen-he is debuting a line called "McQ", that I believe will hit stores in March as well. I read that his line will have a "Brit-rock" vibe.
  3. Miss Trish of Capri-a line of wonderfully ornate sandals. They are known for adding things such as rhinestone starfish and more to their sandals. They will also make their debut at Target.

Target also has some really cute sandals for the season. My favorites are Xhilaration's "Trista" and "Tori" beaded thongs. Merona has come of with what I think is a classy, "Jackie-O-type sandal called Korey. You have a choice of Black and white, or green and white patent. Lastly, Mossimo's "Patty" sandal is heeled with fringe detail.

Don't forget Marshalls and T.J. Maxx for a wide range of name brand clothing, watches, jewelry, handbags and perfumes and shoes. Not to be forgotten is all of the great home decor items that each of these stores carries. Also check in on Ross stores, I always find a lot of Nine West shoes there along with Steve Madden and BCBG girls.

Happy shopping!
