This morning,
WWD pondered whether celebrities – who lend their names to affordable lines for Wal-Mart, Kohl’s and more – actually wear the affordable (read: cheap) clothes they are hawking. We did a little digging ourselves, and found that Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears and Lauren Conrad are all guilty of choosing high end brands when possible. The proof:
Britney Spears Candies Collection vs. True Religion Denim Cut-Offs:
Even though Britney has this a pair of $38
frayed denim shorts in her Candies Designed by Britney collection, the singer opts for this $171 True Religion pair.
LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl’s vs. Alice + Olivia Boyfriend Blazer:
LC could have saved a pretty penny shopping her own line: instead of paying $385 for this Alice + Olivia Sateen Rolled Blazer, Lauren could have gone with the $60 boyfriend blazer in her Kohl’s collection. It’s perfect over little black dresses and summer dresses alike.
The Jessica Simpson Collection vs. Swarovski Clutch:
Jessica could have dipped into her own Jessica Simpson collection, snagging this clutches,
boyfriend blazers and the
best shorts for your shape.
