Fashion Friday: Madewell.

Today I’d like to feature a label that I feel is under appreciated; Madewell.  In case you are unaware, this is the little sister of J Crew.  J Crew companies opened stores in 2008 under the Madewell label offering simpler fashions at 20-30% less than J. Crew prices.  I am a big fan.  Here are a few of my pics from their current line-up.

Love ’em or Hate ’em..

You’ve gotta love their closets.  Story of my life, I have a pile of unread magazines with the average issue backdating three months.  Well, Johnny-come-lately here just read the September issue of In Style and went bonkers over Khloe Kardashian’s closet.  Khloe‘s always been my favorite.

Second favorite, Kourtney.

And bringing up the rear (just like in real life)….  Kim… Drab, lifeless and B-O-R-I-N-G.

Just sayin’.

I Want To Go There.

Last month C. Wonder opened up their Flagship store in Soho. These pictures make me want to hop right on the Acela STAT.
Drool-worthy housewares…

Preppy-chic clothing….

It’s a dream come true.
 Amazing, right?  It’s kinda Jonathan Adler meets Kate Spade meets H & M.  At a whopping 7,200 square feet (in NYC no less) this retail mecca hits a lower price point than you would expect.  The designs are preppy yet fun, punchy yet sophisticated.
Who is behind this brand? It’s none other than Tory’s ex Chris Burch.  (That’s him there with Kelly Rippa, of course.) 
 The grand opening pulled in some fabulously stylish ladies
like Brooke Shields

Elisabeth Rohm

Kelly Rutherford

Maria Menounos
and Josie Bissett (Melrose Place, anyone?)
