Comment below if you avoid JCPenny.
Bam, I think that just resonated with a lot of my readers.
We often think of JCPenny as 1) outdated, 2) dingy, and 3) our mother's favorite store.
But behind the 1970's brown & white storefront and sticky carpeting we can actually find a few *trendy* treasures. That's right-- JCPenny is never too far off the mark when it comes to the season's trends. You haven't seen them? Here's the trick-- shop in the Misses sections. Avoid the Juniors sections and the (old) Women's sections at all costs. Another secret-- never pay full price for anything at JCPenny, because within 2 weeks it will be marked down by 40-75%. Amazing. Also note-- JCPenny always has more discounted inventory in small sizes (2-8) since most of their target market is between sizes 10-18. 

Check out this denim dress I got marked down from $72 to $17.99. The removable belt came with it, and honestly, the belt alone could have been $17.99. If you have brown hair or blue eyes, this dress would be stunning on you. It's still in stores, so get it fast!
As for jewlery, I chose not to necklace because of the busy neckline, and I chose not to wear a bracelet in order to keep the focus on the belt. Instead I went for some simple hoops from Forever21 ($2.80) to coordinate with my brushed-gold sandals.
Hope you like! I might do more of these posts in the future.
XOXO,

Wow, that dress is adorable! I definitely swore off JCP for years until a couple of weeks ago when I was there with my Mom (of course) and spotted a fantastic, colorful, Ikat, high-waisted skirt for <$20. Now, I'm going to have to check out this dress! Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteI love the dress. But yes, I do hate JcPennys. It's not my mother's store, it's my grandmother's store. Lol But they do have lots of great sales.

Pretty!
ReplyDeleteI have long loathed the JCPenney's junior's department. Since moving out on my own though, I've found some great discounted housewares. I'll have to give their misses section a try now, too!
