Just when you thought the party season was over, it’s time to start shopping for the perfect prom dress!  There are many styles to choose from, floor-sweeping gowns, halter styles, strapless or short prom dresses. A great way to make the process less stressful is to stay within your budget, and lucky for you, you won’t find a shortage of affordable designs.

With all of the dancing that you will be enjoying with your friends, you should consider a prom dress with a shorter hem to prevent any missteps or unexpected tumbles.  A gorgeous organza dress with a halter style on top is a great choice for hitting the dance floor while looking like a princess for your handsome date. If you are looking to grace the event with long flowing dress, a dress with a high low hem style to give your look the best of worlds. A one-shoulder chiffon dress with a beautiful flair in a gorgeous jewel tone will make all heads turn as you make circles around your friends.

A printed prom dress or floral pattern will keep your style fresh for Spring. Look for vibrant colors, such as fuchsia, or fun prints like turquoise multi prints, and you will rock your prom as a night you’ll never forget!

If you are a fan of premium denim, you will love this news! Rock & Republic will be available at Kohl’s department stores next year. Rock & Republic brand was acquired by VF Corporation earlier this year, and recently announced an exclusive agreement to bring Rock & Republic brand to Kohl’s stores.

The California-based denim brand has sold the rocker chic jeans for $200 in upscale retailers, such as Neiman Marcus. However, the new agreement with Kohl’s will make the jeans more affordable, with prices ranging from $39-$49. Rock & Republic will be available at all Kohl’s stores starting in the Spring of 2012. Initially, the brand will focus on apparel and footwear for men and women, but hopes to expand the line for children’s clothing, accessories and home decor.

I love the LC by Lauren Conrad  and Simply Vera Vera Wang lines at Kohl’s and I am looking forward to checking out the selection from Rock & Republic. Are you excited about seeing the new line at Kohl’s stores?

Donatella Versace for H&M

It’s been awhile since we’ve heard of a fashion collaboration with a high-end designer, but now we have something on our fashion radars. H&M announced today that it will have a glamorous collection with the luxurious brand Versace as its Fall designer collaboration. The exclusive line will be available at selected H&M stores starting November 17.

Creative Director Donatella Versace will also design a Pre-Spring collection for the budget retailer, which will be available online starting January 19, 2012. Hopefully H&M can bring e-commerce to the U.S. by the end of the year!
