Penneys A/W 2011 - Excited?

lace

Just saw Xpose's look at what's going to be coming into Penneys for autumn/winter this year. Is it just me or does a lot of that stuff look really really lovely?

The stuff they have in at the moment is really nice, got loads a few days ago and I haven't bought anything there in months otherwise.
But yeah the A/W stuff looks amazing! They're really upping their game, hopefully now shops like Topshop etc will have to up quality or drop prices to keep up with them. I love A/W anyway, I much prefer winter clothes

Valentina

Wow it all looks gorgeous!
I love the shoe boots and brown mac with orange piping in the first photo.
I just hope it all looks and feels as gorgeous in real life.

mimihops

Fab!! Love that coat with the piping as well. And the yellow, red and brown bag! Haven't liked pennys much recently but this looks very promising.

Love the look of that bag! Those shoes are looking promising too! My A/W wardrobe might be a reasonable price this year! :P

LadyMayBelle

wow, love that mustard top and red wedges!

emmagination

Oh wow! Some lovely bits and bobs there! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out over the next few months!

Some really nice stuff there alright.


I wouldn't take advice off a blog that looks that bad though....

I wants that bag in the second pic! Penneys has been so good lately, they're blowing the other high street shops out of the water.

Novella

I must have those red wedges.

There's a few things there I definitely want a look at - the orange loafers and teh maxi for sure, and the swallow print skirt. I do find that Penneys photographs pretty well and up close the fabrics don't always stand up, but I must make a weekly pilgrimage for the next couple of months!

Pandoras Twist

I've come to the realisation that I'm going to have to hide under a rock until this 70s thing goes away.

Mustard and orange have no business in my wardrobe.

lace

I really thought I'd never wear orange but my wardrobe is full of that rust kind of colour lately! It's easier to try out colours and trends when stores like Penneys stock them.

Sibylla

I generally find penneys very hit and miss. I'm not sure I like the colours but it's a definite improvement and it's good to see Penneys making a good effort.

Exuberant

I'm actually loving the look of it! Some of the colours are just so great. Lovely vibrant blues in there, and some tempting deep wines and purples too. I also have never really tried the faux fur look, but think it looks so glamorous. Must give it a whirl this A/W In saying all that though, Penneys clothes can look great in pictures but the material might end up being horrible up close.

jenizzle

Can't wait for the stock to change, getting very sick of cack neon bellytops with flowers on them. Haven't bought ANY clothes in months Solid colours or black please

Cheers. Didn't mean to sound snobby about the other blog. The business I'm in relays around well designed websites/blogs.

I'm loving that dress in the top photo.

Actually double cheers for linking me to that blog. I like what she's doing!!

The coat with the orange piping is £45? Hope it's decent quality!

Any idea what pennys are like for their pound to euro pricing?

Fairly standard, I would imagine €50 or less than €55. It is similar to Dunnes before they hid pricing.

cocokay

yeah some lovely stuff...way prefer a/w clothes, can't be doing with trying to get the "perfect" fake tan all summer then wearing sandals and getting caught in torrential showers...give me pretty skirts n dresses with tights n gorge shoes/boots and a lovely winter coat any day! like that swallow skirt, i actually have a playsuit from them from this summer its navy with white swallows, got lots of compliments on it & so comfy to wear although a bit difficult to use the loo in after a few drinkies

emzibob

loving the look of the new collection can't wait to see it in store! penney's have definitely upped their game in recent times and are bang on trend i'm off for a look this evening to see what i can find in the summer sales!

Oh I agree, it was awful to look at!

I don't buy Primark/Tesco clothes myself but Blair's blog is down to earth and very popular, for obvious reasons!
