Like most women my age, I have a huge girl crush on Lauren Conrad. She’s an exceptional role model for young girls, and let’s face it – the girl knows how to dress. For the second year in a row, she released a special edition collection with Kohl’s in conjunction with the beginning of New York Fashion Week. I’ve been looking forward to the release of this collection because the clothing and accessories are made with higher-quality fabrics and materials than what you’re used to finding at Kohl’s (even in LC’s normal clothing line). Everything looks and feels more luxe and high end. I spent some time (okay, a lot of time) browsing all the pieces, so here’s what I deem the best of the 2016 LC Lauren Conrad Runway Collection!
tops | lace cami, bell-sleeve chiffon blouse, faux suede jacket, deep v-neck sweater
dresses & bottoms | wide-leg cropped pants, maxi dress, long-sleeve floral dress, lace tulle dress
accessories | necklace, earrings, hair clip, block heel, lace-up heel, saddle purse
It goes without saying that I can’t wait to shop this collection. If you remember last year’s collection, the colors were more muted and neutral and very nature-inspired. I think that this year’s collection is far superior – I’m digging the darker, moodier feminine vibe. It is perfect for the upcoming fall season!
While I’m a fan of several of the clothing pieces – especially this sweater, this camisole (it will go with everything), and this dress – I was most surprised by the selection of accessories. A genuine leather saddle bag from Kohl’s that comes in three colors? Get out of town! You also never can go wrong with delicate rose quartz jewelry – these earrings and necklace will be worn on repeat no matter the season.
Only some items from the collection currently are available in-store, but you can shop the entire collection online. Plus, everything is 25% off, and if you’re a Kohl’s shopper than you already know that you can use additional coupons toward your purchase. A New York Fashion Week collection from our favorite California girl at affordable prices without the sacrifice of quality? You can count me in!
Are you a fan of Lauren Conrad? What are your favorite pieces from the 2016 Runway Collection?
oh, so many pretty pieces! i love LC’s items in theory, always have, but they never actually work on me. whether it’s fit, length, or just style, i like them better on other people haha. those lace up heels are pretty!!! i want. but i wouldn’t wear, so perfect example right there lol.
I’m the same way! If I’m going to buy any clothing of hers, I have to try everything on. And, I usually end up with nothing or only one or two things. I would never wear those heels either, but I love them. 🙂
Love all of these picks! The colors are so perfect for fall. That dress in the middle is calling my name! I’ve never paid much attention to that line, but this makes me want to start!
Her lines can be very hit or miss, but I thought she did a great job with this one. The colors and prints are so perfect for fall!
My love for LC runs deep, and this new collection just solidifies it even more! I need that jacket and all the accessories! Happy Friday gurlie <3

Right?! The accessories are so on point this year.
I can see why you love this new collection, it’s all so pretty!
It really is!
So many cute pieces! I need that saddle bag in my life!
I just ordered it, so I’ll let you know about the quality!
Loving all of those dresses! And that wine colored moto jacket? Gorgeous! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
So pretty, right?!
Someone posted something from her collection on twitter (i think) and it totally made me think of you! I’m loving all of these colors and the prints. I have no need/no where to wear it, but I love the cropped blazer and dress shorts.
I’m with you – I have nowhere to where any of this stuff, but I do love the colors and prints. I just ordered that purse, so I’ll be anxious to see the quality.
I love the wide leg trousers and those velvety jackets! SO good!

So pretty, right?!
Wow! What a great collection. Loving that suede jacket!

I know, I was super impressed with the collection. Loving that jacket!
What a great collection! I always forget she has a line with Kohls. That saddle bag is perfect for fall!
Her regular line is really nothing to write home about, but I do like when she does these limited edition collection. The quality is way better!
That jacket is swoon worthy and I love the bag – really pretty color palette! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
I agree, perfect for fall!
I adore that bag!
You and me both!
