Duro Olowu for JC Penney Lookbook

JC Penney is fairly new to the world of high/low designer collaborations, but for a company who has yet to master the ropes, their collab with Duro Olowu is breathtaking.

Designer Duro Olowu announced earlier in the year that the fashion house and department store would release a limited-edition collection consisting of women’s clothing, shoes, accessories, home accessories and luggage.

The collection is set to launch in stores and at jcp.com beginning in March. The price points for this collaboration are set between $10 and $100.

The collection is absolutely stunning, incorporating digital prints, black and white, Pantone’s 2013 color emerald and gold into androgynous, 1960s-esque silhouettes.

Below are some of my favorite pieces from the collection:

Throw in the fact that the Billboard Music Awards are not the [...]

A Model Covering US Vogue Is A Rare Occurrence Today

Years ago, models were everything. They fronted every major campaign, walked down every runway, and were considered to be celebrities as much as Hollywood’s biggest blockbuster’s leading lady. Today, when people think of a model, they think of Karlie Kloss. Ultra thin, ultra tall and primarily working the runways and editorial spreads in Vogue magazine. [...]

Questionable Product Names: The ‘Fatkini’

By no means am I always politically correct. Sometimes I say things that others would think are insensitive, but don’t get me wrong — certain questionable statements definitely get me to raise my eyebrows. Something that always makes me cringe is the use of the word “fat.” Being someone who has struggled with weight and [...]

You Don’t Always Have To Be Nice At Work

It’s tough to find the perfect balance between being nice and assertive at work. If you’re too sweet, you’re considered to be either fake or weak. If you’re too assertive, you’re a bitch and unapproachable. Since finding the perfect median can be difficult, most women usually go with one or the other. Which one should [...]
