Theyskens’ Theory Takes Marc by Marc’s Old Spot: Irene really did a number on the NYFW schedule. Following Marc Jacobs’ announcement that his show would move from Monday to Thursday due to time lost, it has just been announced that Theyskens’ Theory won’t be showing Monday either. Instead, Olivier is sliding into the Tuesday 4pm slot, which Marc by Marc had until they moved that up to the former Marc Jacobs Collection slot on Monday. It’s like musical chairs! {WWD}

First Look: I Heart Ronson Fall 2010

by

We must admit: Charlotte Ronson’s I Heart Ronson collection for JC Penney is consistently cute. And wildly affordable. (Most items ring in at around $30.)

Good news: You can use the look book as a guide. Click through to see what’s in store.

by

Memo: Charlotte Ronson’s I [Heart] Ronson line for JC Penney is now available for perusal on the JC Penney site.
