Swell Savings: Lovely Winter Coat

I love when items that you can wear for the current season are marked way down, because the store needs to make room for all the next season stuff. An example of this would be a coat that I picked up at JCPenny today. It was originally priced at $200, but I got it for $39.97.

It's perfect for wearing to work. I picked the boysenberry color - a good color for any complexion shade.

The green, blue, and yellow could be a bit trickier. You can find it online here, if you are interested - a little pricier than in my local store. If you are in need of a mid-season wardrobe boost, now is the time to look, because your local anywhere-store is in a mad rush to stock swimsuits (which we won't need in my area for a few months, in which time they will be pulling the suits and stocking the back to school items).

Swell Style: Full Leg Jeans

What are your thoughts on the wide-leg jean?  Too That 70s Show? Right on trend?

They come in, go out, come in, go out. I have to say that I always love them. I'm a girl with full thighs, no matter what my weight, so wearing a skinny jean is tough for me. A jean with a fuller leg is so much more forgiving, plus they are funky and that's fun.

SELF magazine has a few pairs listed here, but Forever 21 has the same look for even less. Take a peek here and here.
