Outfit Inspiration from Kohl’s

Not only does Kohl’s offer a destination for kids to stock up on their back-to-school outfitting needs, but it also has what adults are looking for to update their wardrobes with the return of social gatherings, family outings or even when heading back to the office. Rooted in apparel that can transition from the office to your kids’ after school activities, Kohl’s is the place to shop for comfortable, yet presentable and stylish attire.

• Active & Casual: As people begin their post-COVID lifestyle, one trend that is staying strong is people’s preference to dress more casually and comfortably for every occasion - whether it's to the office, a day out with the family, or events with friends. For men, that means suits have traded to khakis and dress shirts, and khakis have traded to denim and polos. For women, there has been an increased interest in jackets and third layers. Think boyfriend blazers from LC Lauren Conrad, cropped jackets from Nine West and oversized cardigans from Sonoma Goods for Life to compliment new proportions in looser fitting bottoms with denim a key complimenting component. Kohl’s new athleisure brand, FLX, is another option for people looking to take their workday outfit to the soccer sidelines with options like performance leggings, tees and blazers that can transition along with the day.
• Beauty: Everyone is going to want to look their best when reuniting with co-workers, friends or family in-person and a new set of makeup can add the finishing touches to the perfect look. Kohl’s innovative new Sephora at Kohl’s beauty experience will open in the first 200 stores just in time for fall and will be available on Kohls.com beginning August 1. From Sephora exclusives like Fenty Beauty and Drunk Elephant to cult classics like Lancôme and Bare Minerals to emerging clean beauty brands like ILIA and Milk Makeup, the wide-ranging Sephora at Kohl’s beauty assortment will have a brand and a product for everyone.
