Update Your Wardrobe For Back To School Season

candies kohlsLast night in New York City the temperature was in the mid-60’s, which means one sad thing:  summer is all but over.

But with the change of season comes one very silver lining: it’s time update that wardrobe!

This weekend take some time and hit up Kohl’s. Didn’t think Kohl’s had anything besides pots, pans and clothes for your mom? Think again, missy. After being sent there on an errand for my mother I spent 2 hours shopping their awesome designers (at totally not-designers’ price) and walked out with over 3 bags full of stuff.

No joke.

They carry the new line from Candies, which is way more than (cute) shoes. It also boasts jewelry, apparel and other adorable accessories, not to mention Ms. Britney Spears as their spokeswoman. There is also the Vera Wang line, Daisy Fuentes, and Mudd, which has some pretty great denim in their fall collection.

People compliment me all the time on my Kohl’s finds. It’s definitely worth the trip.

Fergie – Nothing but a Billboard?

Fergie-billboardBlack Eyed Peas front-girl Fergie has just signed a $4 million contract with clothing and footwear brand Candie’s. In the terms of the contract, Fergie agrees to verbally mention the Candie’s brand in at least one song on her second solo effort.

If you were bummed when “Rich Girl” plugged Gwen Stefani’s brand L.A.M.B. and Eve’s Fetish, Fergie’s contract will be a rough blow. Fergie is scheduled to appear in a number of Candie’s commercials and will even have fans dress in Candie’s clothing at her concerts.

While Fergie is not the first artist to accept endorsements from a brand, the requirements in her contract with Candie’s require her to endorse the clothing very openly. She has basically been purchased and is allowing herself to become a walking Candie’s advertisement. Read More »
