A Betsey Farewell

My favorite Betsey Johnson store has closed, along with dozens of others across the country. I became a Betsey fan after my first pair of turquoise embroidered flats I wore with just about everything that summer. These are now my favorite Betsey Johnson heels -- the glitter Polly. She certainly has a knack for the fun and flirtatious. And for a girl who isn't afraid of hot pink, I dig her aesthetic.


I hear that the stores are closing but the brand isn't done. Personally, I look forward to many more cartwheels down the runway!

The Betsey bankruptcy and a reality show in the works

By now you've heard, and shed a collective tear for funky fashion lovers everywhere, that Betsey Johnson LLC has filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. It's still surprising to me that nobody stepped forward to rescue this dynamic brand! Word is that the Betsey line seen in stores like Macy's will continue to sell. But this blog is reporting that she has a reality TV show in the works with her daughter LuLu, who reportedly is interested in launching her own line. Just remember, Lulu. You got it from your mama.
