I was out and about this weekend when I remembered the boys in my house are running low on socks. Whoa, how about that for an opening line?! I bet you can’t wait to read the rest of this post! But hang with me.
Normally, I’d stop at the mother ship Target, but Kohls happened to be closer. No offense to Kohls, it’s just one of those stores I always forget about. And I certainly don’t seek them out for all the latest and greatest. So imagine my shock when I walked past a Rock & Republic display, that included these cropped colored jeans!!??

Hold the phone! Kohls sells Rock & Republic?! The cobalt blue came home with me, and I’m consulting Julia’s post on how to wear them. If they don’t make me feel like a giant Teletubbie, I may go back for the red ones.

Online pics are never great, but trust me when I tell you this striped dress is too cute! Um, it came home with me too. (Of course, I can’t stand too close to an open flame. Polyester doesn’t mix well with propane.)

Since I love all things striped and color-blocked, I was drawn to this skirt. Alas, it showed parts of my thighs that never see the light of day, so it stayed on the rack. I’m sure some crafty gal could easily add another stripe for more length.

On a shopping high (and socks forgotten), I ran through the shoe department and quickly added these espadrille wedges to my cart. I guess they know you’ll load ‘er up, so they provide wheeled carts!?

I’m shocked I was able to walk away from the pink ones for now.
