How I Saved Over $300 Shopping at Kohl’s!

February 4th // 3 Comments

Today was one of my favorite days during World Conference because I got to talk about – guess what – SAVING MONEY! While on stage this morning Marc and I revealed one of my recent shopping binges on kohls.com, except it wasn’t really a binge because I saved over $300!! One outfit for JR + one outfit for me = $100. Can you believe it?!

Do you remember this from the slideshow? It’s become one of my go-to pieces for a night out:

Kohl’s, LC Lauren Conrad Faux-Fur Crop Jacket

The jacket was marked down from $80 to $24; those kind of sale prices combined with a Hot Deal and Cashback, well… how could I not have saved a ton of money?

So there’s my little secret:)

Love,

Loren

Completely Cool… and Totally Affordable! Rachel Roy’s Cotton T-Shirts

January 28th // 1 Comment

RACHEL Rachel Roy’s cotton t-shirts are every good thing: They come with a great fit and in nice fabric in a gorgeous color range – plus, the prices are a fraction of what Roy’s high-end designs would run you. In the February issue of Real Simple, the designer admits to wearing the tees with everything from vintage men’s Levis (her jeans of choice) to long evening skirts. And I can see why: The shades – from stone to shell pink to sea glass — are muted and earthy but not at all drab. It’s a tough balance to strike; Roy has done it to perfection.

Bonus: The t-shirts are on sale right now at Macy’s. These range between a happifying $18.74 to $47.24. Which color do you like best?

Love,

Men’s Style, Part II: The Charm (and unbeatable warmth) of the Three-Piece Suit

January 20th // Comment Here

A three-piece suit can look, on first consideration, utterly tasteful, straightforward and warm – and it is all of those things. But it can also be crazily elegant and cool. (Cue Bradley Cooper’s recent appearance on Letterman.) So let me just announce that Charles Tyrwhitt is having a crazy, CRAZY sale on gorgeous English 3-piece wool suits at the moment – you can save up to $600. Beautiful stuff.

Wear It Til April: Adorable Puffer Coats

January 20th // Comment Here

Even though it feels like spring down here in Miami, I know for some of you winter is still alive and well. Even so, I am jealous of those of you who get to wear super cute coats like these! It’s hard to say whether it’s the sleeping-bag coziness of a puffer coat, the weightless quality, or the fact that they’re toasty and sophisticated – but this look totally works for me.

Sheer is a huge trend for spring — so you can’t get by with just any old lingerie. Get thee to a pretty bra or camisole ASAP!
