If you had told me just two weeks ago that I'd find ANYTHING with Lauren Conrad's name on it acceptable to wear ON MY BODY, I'd have called you a liar.

But LC Lauren Conrad, a Kohl's exclusive, is one of the few lower-end celebrity or designer diffusion lines that has pleasantly surprised me.

While there are some basic tanks, tees, sweater and jeans in the collection, LC Lauren Conrad really excels in the pretty and feminine printed tops and dresses. Two standouts are the gorge watercolor dress (below) and the brushstroke sheath dress. Each piece is staggeringly affordable (the dresses are both on sale for under $50 each) and of relatively good quality.

If you're in the neighborhood of a Kohl's, stop in and check out LC Lauren Conrad and of course, the Simply Vera Vera Wang collection (which boasts some very cute jewelry!)
