After months of brainstorming solutions and plan revision, Betsey Johnson LLC has exhausted all of their resources and, we are sad to say, have filed for bankruptcy. Within the next few weeks the brand known ‘round the world will be closing its 60-some freestanding stores and letting go of over 300 employees.
Though we are sad to say goodbye to the eccentric fashion shows Betsey Johnson has been putting on for years and years, we are happy to say that this is not the end of Johnson all together! The creative director will still be overseeing all of her moderately priced designs sold in Macy’s, as well as her jewelry line, Betseyville. WWD even reported the possibility of a reality show in the making.
On that morning when you're watching reruns of The Most Blinged Out My Super Sweet 16 and lamenting the loss of your million dollar upbringing (we know, we've been there too!), just remember that you've got a fat check coming your way!
In the midst of filing all of your taxes, maybe you forgot the light at the end of the tunnel. Your tax returns are set from the heavens, by stork and arrive at your doorstep just in time for super shopper deals! But where to spend the sweet bundles of cash coming your way?
While some of us might invest in a few household necessities, make a payment on a car, plan a sunny vacation or even join a new gym and commit to a get fit regime – we know just know to ‘invest’ our hard earned cash – ‘cause we plan to go shopping!
Every girl-on-the-go is pinched for time at some point or another, and every now and then, she may lack the inspiration to make a quick turnaround from the daytime look to one she can wear out on the town. Well have no fear busy beauties, Joonbug is here! We have come up with 5 great tips that can help you to create the perfect day-to-night look without having to stop at home or pack a duffle on your way to work.
Tip 1: Let’s start with shoes- Slip into a pair of your fave heels!
There is no better way to turn a day look into nighttime style than by ditching the flats and pumping it up (literally!) For those who don’t want to endure the “torture” of the 5-inch stiletto, we have the perfect solution to the misconception that beauty=pain. Check out the Cole Haan collection by Maria Sharpova. With concealed NIKE AIR technology leather, lined leather mid-sole, and stacked heel rubber sole, these babies add comfort to style (also available at Macy’s and Nordstrom). Once that’s taken care of, throw on a pair of your favorite skinny jeans and you’re good to go. We know, not all are fans of the skinny jeans, and if this speaks to you, try a trendy wedge sandal with your simple skirt or dress. It is the perfect variation of high-heels that is comfortable and sure to add flair to your look.
It’s official; Macy’s fashionistas sure know how to throw a great party. In celebration of the brand new INC collection and Editor at Large Kate Young, celebrity stylist and fashionista in her own right, the store hosted a stylish soiree last night. It was fashion with a view, if you will, at Le Bain atop The Standard Hotel. Against the backdrop of the Hudson River and New York City’s sparkling lights, the collection was presented on mannequins and a few stylish live models. But we’ll discuss that in a minute; let’s talk more about the party.
As cliché as it sounds- it’s the most wonderful time of the year. Even scientifically speaking- shopping produces endorphins- our happiness drug; is there any other time that we shop more than just before Christmas? That, paired with the out-of-this-world adverts kindly created by NYC classics like Henri Bendel and Saks Fifth Avenue, have us practically eating out of the palm of their deliciously gorgeous, string-lit, ornament-strewn, hand. But before any holiday purchases are made, some window shopping is in order. The window displays of NYC are a little piece of magic created intricately for anyone who still believes in Christmas. And while yes, it’s a ploy to get you inside, you can still enjoy the beauty for what it’s worth- and maybe score some incredible stocking stuffers (Think Bendel bangle or Serendipity-esque gloves from Bloomies).
Many shops all over the country decorate for the coming holiday season. Festive displays of red and green, tiny trees, Santa Claus and presents make their way into nearly every store we walk into for the next month. In New York, however, window displays are something to marvel at. Each year designers and artists compete in an elaborate flourish of skill to create the most beautiful window displays of the year. They’re a well known, if a little unconventional, tourist attraction for those visiting the city in the winter.
Between all of the mall madness and holiday shopping chaos, it’s nearly impossible to please every single fashionista on your list this joyful season. Rather than stressing over what will happen to your eh, mediocre gift, we’re here to give you the scoop on the best return policies for your not-so-satisfied gift recipients. Besides, who doesn’t like a nice chunk of change in a store credit? We know we do! :::wink wink:::

Unless of course you have the receipt, then you’ll get a full refund based on the original form of payment. If you buy something off Bloomingdale’s.com, you can return that to any of their stores as well! But again, just be sure to keep those tags with the return label!!
Kohl’s
Kohl’s has a Hassle-Free return policy. Bring the items you want to return and they’ll do the rest! First off, there is no time limit on returns! With the receipt, you’ll be fully refunded for every penny by the original method of payment. If you don’t have a receipt, you’ll just get an even exchange in merchandise credit. Yay!

Macy’s

Nordstrom
You can return anything at anytime to Nordstrom!! How wonderful is that? As long as you have the tags, you’re good to go. The tags just help them to pull up the item to refund your money. You do not need to bring the receipt, however if you have it, that’s always a plus. Say you use a credit card to pay for your items, you don’t even need to bring that credit card when you go to return your item. Easy, simple, stress free. We love!
Sephora
Get this, you can return used products to Sephora without the receipt, just make sure you didn’t use half of it! Sephora prides themselves on keeping their customers happy and satisfied. When it comes to beauty products, we can do some damage, especially in a beauty store heaven like Sephora. It’s quite comforting to know that you can return any product at any time, even without the original packaging. Say you’re not so happy with that coral blush you were so tempted to buy, not a problem! Head down to Sephora for a full refund in store credit. If you have the receipt and the original box you can get a full refund in the form of your original payment!
Zappos.com
The oh-so-popular online shoe store allows returns up to 365 days after the date of purchase! Many people are skeptical about buying shoes online. “What if they don’t fit?” “The shipping costs more than the shoes!” Well, they’ve nipped these concerns in the butt, because they pay for your shipping costs too. Hallelujah! Just make sure the bottoms don’t look worn out.
Women are like Mary Poppins when it comes to their purses, you never know what you’ll find at the bottom of our bags. Searching for your lip stick, handheld mirror, or wallet could be rather difficult in our dark-bottomless-pit of a purse. But now, thanks to Candy Store’s new line of accessories, you’ll never have to go looking ever again!
Andy Hilfiger (brother of Tommy) and Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler blur the lines between fashion and music to create this latest rock–inspired clothing brand, Andrew Charles. The line recently launched at Macy’s and is exclusive to their “high-end” Impulse Department. Tyler and his 22-year-old daughter Chelsea star in the look book and a series of ads promoting the line.
Inspiration for the collection comes from all things rock & roll. Tyler’s self-described “freak style” was very apparent, but you can clearly see traces of other legendary rock styles from icons like Guns N’ Roses and the Rolling Stones.
