Top 3 Catherine Malandrino for Kohl’s Pieces

Gone are my Barneys New York shopping days since moving back to Florida and adding two little tots to the mix. Well, except for the occasional splurge online or when in Manhattan. I mean, doesn’t every girl deserve Barneys? Just walking through the Flagship store on the Upper East Side is a treat…beauty everywhere you turn. But I digress…these days, I have to get a little bit more creative in finding fashion pieces that fit into my on-the-go lifestyle which usually includes two little boys 3 and under. Let’s just say, life can get a little messy.

So when I heard Catherine Malandrino was arriving at Kohl’s, I had to stop in and see just what they had to offer. I have to admit, until yesterday, I was a Kohl’s virgin. But, this isn’t my first time at the rodeo…and by rodeo I mean the crazy shopping frenzy associated with designer collaborations a la Target and Missoni, Target and Phillip Lim…you get the picture. So I did my homework and previewed the collection online and headed out early. Sadly, there was not a huge assortment in the store I visited. The piece I wanted most? The black cutout shift dress (above) that looked like a black leather doily…edgy and sweet all at the same time. Plus, dresses are my fave to travel in. One piece makes an entire outfit and is super comfy. But no luck at my Kohl’s.

But here are the top three pieces I did find of Catherine Malandrino for Kohl’s.

Top 3: Gored Ponte Dress, Colorblock Lock Top, & Pleated Knit Skirt

1. Gored Ponte Dress: This one is a no brainer as it’s easy evening wear when traveling as it’s knit. Plus, it can carry you from day to evening in the winter…throw a jacket or sweater over it during the day and reveal the lace sleeves at night.

2. Colorblock Lock Tee: Tees are great travel pieces as they’re great for layering and a cute one like this can be paired with black pants or can jazz up your denim in no time.

3. Pleated Knit Skirt: This skirt is super comfy. No zippers and no drycleaning. A black skirt is an essential when traveling and this one has a bit more excitement to it with the pleated hem.

What shocked me? The numerous other collaborations they carried…Vera Wang, Jennifer Lopez, Rock & Republic, Dana Buchman, and Lauren Conrad. Who knew? I’ll definitely be stopping back by Kohl’s again soon to check out their latest fashion pieces for less. Probably sooner rather than later for this super cute Jennifer Lopez faux fur vest that looks too good.
