Lauren Conrad's Fashion Line for Kohl's

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: auto;"><div style="text-align: auto;"><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: auto;">Lauren Conrad has proved that she is much more than just a Reality TV star. She's written three bestselling books, runs her own beauty website and is the design diva behind two fashion lines - her own called <i>Paper Crown</i>, and one for US retailer, <i>Kohl's, </i>called the <i>LC Lauren Conra</i><i>d</i> <i>Collection. </i>For Fall 2011 Lauren collaborated with <i>Kohl's</i> on a clothing range that's both pretty and affordable.</div></span></div></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: auto;"><br /><br />Lauren's personal style is conveyed by the flirty florals, pleated skirts, 70's style blouses, boyfriend blazers, girly dresses and dainty jewellery. Ballet flats, wedges and platform loafers also form part of the range. I like that this collection is cohesive throughout, with a touch of vintage elegance melded into the peach toned palette. Every piece costs just under $100 / R700, with sale items under $50 / R350.

Mango Fall/Winter 2011

The well-known Spanish clothing brand chose the <i>Victoria's Secret </i>model for "her extraordinary beauty and naturalness." Isabeli represents the two sides of their Winter 2011 collection; ultra sexy femme fatale and masculine elegance. Each side is differentiated by the styling - tousled waves with smokey eyes, and slicked back locks with striking red lips.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A primarily black colour scheme runs throughout the range, with dashes of leopard print and polka dots. The collection is a mix of glitzy cocktail dresses, leather and faux fur, classic coats, luxe knits, mini skirts and impeccably tailored suits. I love the gold-tipped black shoes and embellished clutch bags. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With their Winter 2011 range, Mango seeks to style the modern, dynamic and independent woman. While the rest of you dress for success in one of these polished looks, us in South Africa will only be receiving the range next year. </span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEickiPgIpTXpMo_KluWI0cvK2VxGXg5p6cBZpKFO_F7F6u6zbmrZQnRTlWB7-FylFXmSF3jApdWDbf5AvK9B8Ryec7Cb5BTMSSdVFT3QZYdZBjJgC8zlYlE46hKPxlb6yggnYgbW-HBK7u3/s1600/mango+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEickiPgIpTXpMo_KluWI0cvK2VxGXg5p6cBZpKFO_F7F6u6zbmrZQnRTlWB7-FylFXmSF3jApdWDbf5AvK9B8Ryec7Cb5BTMSSdVFT3QZYdZBjJgC8zlYlE46hKPxlb6yggnYgbW-HBK7u3/s640/mango+1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0deSlkPWzr1lRNL_1QlbGvwxuMQ7SfvO3jLxUbxgsEDt_HnD1S6sFP4aeav3ONm81aVrsYYAMFpLiPXtfdgw7ykxebCX-qlMLRifVgqekNqEJSylJKKN2iWZVG_vQkjwHGXClufQ-t_L-/s1600/mango+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0deSlkPWzr1lRNL_1QlbGvwxuMQ7SfvO3jLxUbxgsEDt_HnD1S6sFP4aeav3ONm81aVrsYYAMFpLiPXtfdgw7ykxebCX-qlMLRifVgqekNqEJSylJKKN2iWZVG_vQkjwHGXClufQ-t_L-/s640/mango+2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7oQWt-1LQEzsAHbTG8e3Hhvwm1hGKX9kdvHGaCSw3hNT1uuy54UGErJq44T-EBTCOVuyR1vMF5m7u9fQna_qPZFL5n5jofvGlO1uSxqbkHV6aGcFIz_tLfkNbsE3OARtLz-sO9m9aoplc/s1600/mango3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7oQWt-1LQEzsAHbTG8e3Hhvwm1hGKX9kdvHGaCSw3hNT1uuy54UGErJq44T-EBTCOVuyR1vMF5m7u9fQna_qPZFL5n5jofvGlO1uSxqbkHV6aGcFIz_tLfkNbsE3OARtLz-sO9m9aoplc/s640/mango3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-wfefUoigd8NVZaxVDCd-chYwnTQPYO3azv88zi4Loss0BodmOLdCKGX34_rBqrognHsOzUpOwEiJ7t1xpRrEO1idicJTYGuxPzMK-wbNji-mJyX_CYtMMq6WcWFb6jlq2DnRCgEiaweQ/s1600/mango+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-wfefUoigd8NVZaxVDCd-chYwnTQPYO3azv88zi4Loss0BodmOLdCKGX34_rBqrognHsOzUpOwEiJ7t1xpRrEO1idicJTYGuxPzMK-wbNji-mJyX_CYtMMq6WcWFb6jlq2DnRCgEiaweQ/s640/mango+4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /><br /></b></span>

Aimed at the young, cool and free-spirited, <i>NW3</i> is a trendier subset of the classic <i>Hobbs</i> brand. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span>All the outfits presented are very wearable and exceptionally tailored in a mix of traditional, quality fabrics like wool, denim and corduroy. The dark colour palette is functional, the styles practical and laid back. Navy blue is proffered as a neutral, with grey following close behind. This eclectic collection features chunky knits, fitted shirts, smart trousers, maxi skirts and adorable dresses. The classic blazers are lined with quirky prints and stripes, so you can roll up your sleeves for a more casual, contrasting look. Each individual piece is meant to easily weave its way into your current wardrobe. </span></span></span></span></span></b></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></span></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZIcwVg6VrnhgxpxbxvqnTplocgpzxz2BOAlm2BQF549Bg7taQCndlbzmwokvZq-Z1LHA0mMjIR5I5EXuqcWPuwvMuvmOqYil8gpPfiWAyPO_qCzoLC24OjGEU4Aed3ijngf_ZlVvvU1Q/s1600/hobbs1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZIcwVg6VrnhgxpxbxvqnTplocgpzxz2BOAlm2BQF549Bg7taQCndlbzmwokvZq-Z1LHA0mMjIR5I5EXuqcWPuwvMuvmOqYil8gpPfiWAyPO_qCzoLC24OjGEU4Aed3ijngf_ZlVvvU1Q/s640/hobbs1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOXkqdwwAOlB4xuZWQFptCxE2wEGGkMc4vFwWMq8tnAxlZYpD3heXMcoLZ5c30DtuSJa09-kTQQe74UuA3PXvn7YjD2S214qViWTotjF7yqx-I6p7cHs9a7l8GzQUntITd-H8lLoBxenM/s1600/hobbs2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOXkqdwwAOlB4xuZWQFptCxE2wEGGkMc4vFwWMq8tnAxlZYpD3heXMcoLZ5c30DtuSJa09-kTQQe74UuA3PXvn7YjD2S214qViWTotjF7yqx-I6p7cHs9a7l8GzQUntITd-H8lLoBxenM/s640/hobbs2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT4B9sMuRWFPyTEaurzWhQTUShQH8ymBc9ffCQutiPAG2YBurfvv5MS7T6p90o60pi4y8Y2MGXYlw0K14XlzZc0cA33kYrg9ijvLJBWsW0gO_ORm2jpCqnr1vE8qGTUlRtdbfZNnCtE54/s1600/hobbs3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT4B9sMuRWFPyTEaurzWhQTUShQH8ymBc9ffCQutiPAG2YBurfvv5MS7T6p90o60pi4y8Y2MGXYlw0K14XlzZc0cA33kYrg9ijvLJBWsW0gO_ORm2jpCqnr1vE8qGTUlRtdbfZNnCtE54/s640/hobbs3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzLNFGRd5-5FSQmawc692gHKkXogfwnXF_84o6oN7AattTlR9Bb5GIiGL-S7Azhs6HTe2l0rJMMU70DoA_Lr-iKfICB_jR5o58qrH7gYtDBE_nqA0aDsmwYsd46NAa5bT0KVLAfXgCXF8/s1600/hobbs4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzLNFGRd5-5FSQmawc692gHKkXogfwnXF_84o6oN7AattTlR9Bb5GIiGL-S7Azhs6HTe2l0rJMMU70DoA_Lr-iKfICB_jR5o58qrH7gYtDBE_nqA0aDsmwYsd46NAa5bT0KVLAfXgCXF8/s640/hobbs4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihGqh6txzc27dxH_VtudMXdr2MJTMKKCZWKf05ysxiXce1Iamvbyf48YJlin9crC8kw0JFNH_QKpLIQgCKQK_GXVDdlZblnjRAQbRri32_wJ81raFPNEIX0OdVT_-atYlmUyyOOUaKvsU/s1600/hobbs5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihGqh6txzc27dxH_VtudMXdr2MJTMKKCZWKf05ysxiXce1Iamvbyf48YJlin9crC8kw0JFNH_QKpLIQgCKQK_GXVDdlZblnjRAQbRri32_wJ81raFPNEIX0OdVT_-atYlmUyyOOUaKvsU/s640/hobbs5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAJzVQksKjwfgGngJkbh7ePfefLqiubjKx28I7TEMYEOUpOKWFWK-Cef6JWd96L1RMe2BqkOb4nMc2CGACgT4CAXz4GVXy-FgGXPN-peMUWDHegLaAnOZAC0xfrS2uawatEm66Z4609mo/s1600/hobbs6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAJzVQksKjwfgGngJkbh7ePfefLqiubjKx28I7TEMYEOUpOKWFWK-Cef6JWd96L1RMe2BqkOb4nMc2CGACgT4CAXz4GVXy-FgGXPN-peMUWDHegLaAnOZAC0xfrS2uawatEm66Z4609mo/s640/hobbs6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All the chic accessories pictured are also part of the <i>Hobbs NW3</i> range.

'Mad Men' Collection at Banana Republic

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span>Do you have wardrobe envy each time you watch an episode of <i>Mad Men</i>? Now you too can get that 60's secretary look with the launch of <i>Banana Republic's </i>new<i> '</i>Mad Men' inspired collection. The American fashion brand have teamed up with Emmy Award-winning Costume Designer, Janie Bryant to create a classic collection for both men and women. Janie is the creative architect behind the wardrobe of the hit TV series, which is based on the cutthroat world of advertising in 1960's New York. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span>The collection features the best of retro designs, including high-waisted skirts, trench coats, empire-line dresses, fitted sheath dresses, blouses and cardigans. Outfits are accessorized with strings of pearls, scarves, gloves and sheer black stockings. I love the abundance of leopard print in this range. </span></span></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vNPfnMBoHpQ/Tjm6wziFQfI/AAAAAAAABGo/iJm013SCwJk/s1600/madmen1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vNPfnMBoHpQ/Tjm6wziFQfI/AAAAAAAABGo/iJm013SCwJk/s640/madmen1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A lovely leopard print trench coat is worn over a cream lace dress, belted in black.

There's the relaxed and romantic 'California Dreaming' and the sexy and spirited 'Pixie Party'. </span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i><br /><br /></i></b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifzX2jauctIyB6E9vea-LbnGmqegPbeXBGdvPh26ctT2gzN-VtjiIppC1KChQ2tX2wliOnBFBJVusgpZZvGF0TYDuye2RUtIQlptnyLNkJFaX5Ffge12JSRUAxA583ytBYG1y21NlM-lM/s1600/lipsy+pixie+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifzX2jauctIyB6E9vea-LbnGmqegPbeXBGdvPh26ctT2gzN-VtjiIppC1KChQ2tX2wliOnBFBJVusgpZZvGF0TYDuye2RUtIQlptnyLNkJFaX5Ffge12JSRUAxA583ytBYG1y21NlM-lM/s640/lipsy+pixie+1.jpg" width="462" /></a></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The colours are soft and girly with pretty pinks, peaches and flowery prints.
