European Invasion

Any female who has ever shopped for clothes in the UK or Europe in general will know these super high street fashion staples (which I just love) - and be excited they are coming to the States. ( My UK/European  readers sorry – will definitely post something more universal next week)

MNG by Mango - JC Penny

This collection that debut at the end of August in select JCP stores is a popular Spanish -based fashion chain similar to Zara or a high end H&M. MNG by Mango offers career and casual women’s sports wear as well as handbags, accessories and footwear. Currently the line is available in 77 JC Penny stores and is currently available at jcp.com. By fall 2011 they will expand the line to 600 stores around the country.
 I have already checked out the line in person and was not too impressed with the items they carry - its not a good representation of the real mango and besides there was no item that I eagerly longed for – for MNG I can wait and be patient enough till some of their stuff goes on sale - And by me saying that -  it means a lot because when it comes to cuteness I have no self control so I would have definitely bought something  if there was anything worthy.









So as you can see from the pictures nothing cute worthy  

French Connection - Sears

Sears is teaming up with French Connection (FCUK) to launch UK Style by French Connection which will be a new line of men, women and children clothing and accessories

The new line will launch in 500 Sears stores and sears.com in early 2011.

Also I am loving their prices starting from $10 and up - which is way cheaper than the original FCUK

Next - Sears

Sears is now carrying clothing from Next one of UK's largest fashion e-tailers. The Next for Sears’s collection includes fashion forward pieces for men, women and children including accessories and shoes. Sizes are also available for my petite, tall and plus size fashionistas.









Topshop

Topshop, New York opened late last year and currently they are in the works of opening a second store in Chicago.
Now although I haven’t been to the actual store in New York they do have a designated US website with $10 flat shipping - now for the bad new - its not cheappp





$400 - Love this peek a boo pleat trench coat








Till next time my dears - remain in a fashion state of mind.

  1. Wow...I didn't know NEXT was coming to the States. That's interesting, considering they once had some storefronts in the States that were unsuccessful. NEXT in Sears - I don't even know who this helps more really as fashionistas are rarely in Sears but this is a good reason to get them in there along with the FCUK line. I hope both lines are not diffusion lines and the quality and fashion remain the same as the original. Good post Yemisi!
