I’m not a huge Kohl’s shopper, but I found some really cute spring tops there by Lauren Conrad. Nothing is drab. It turns out she is somewhat of a conservative too.
Thanks for the tip!
Aw! Thank you! And may I say you have an astonishing memory? According to YOUTUBE, that commercial is from the 80s!
For the past 15 years, or more, Easter pastels of pretty pinks and blues, lovely yellows and greens have been ditched, with BLACK tinted hues added in everything.
Pastels have been unattractive for ages, in cosmetics, nail polish, in apparel, wall paint and color decor.
Thanks for posting. Great idea to search for alternatives.
Giant was playing non-stop sad music on inauguration day. Four songs in a row while I was there. I’m terribly afraid I was grinning like a loon.
But back to fashion, drab colors are easier to mix and match for an office wardrobe, saving money in a rotten economy. They aren’t as noticeable when worn twice in the same week the way a bright color would be.
You’re welcome. I kind of gave up on Kohl’s a few years ago as I didn’t like their clothes. The Lauren Conrad stuff is really cute for this 56 year old. :) I’ve always loved fashion and she has some great pieces for any age.
I have an astonishing memory when it comes to useless information. Just don’t ask me what the date is or what day of the week it is.
I do see signs of the rotten economy everywhere. The quality of cotton sank even while we were assured that the economy recovered and everyone who wanted a job, had a job.Polyester or “modal” replaced cotton. Fabric tags moved from the color to a side seam or were printed in light ink on the fabric itself. Quality of wool and silk sank like a rock - gotta love that recovery!
