- The sizing- the Kohl's blouse actually runs a little smaller than the J.Crew blouse (I wear a 2 in J.Crew and needed a 4 in this, 6 if I wanted it to be a little relaxed.)
- The Kohl's dupe doesn't have rhinestones all the way around the collar (about 4 inches in the back without them), which I actually prefer. I find that my hair gets caught in the rhinestones, so I can only imagine what trouble having additional ones nobody could even see would cause.
- The Kohl's version does not have a very top button (visible in the J.Crew stock photo above).
- The Kohl's version has more stretch
- The quality isn't quite up to J.Crew standards, that being said, everything feels pretty sturdy and the blouse comes with extra buttons and rhinestones in a little baggie.
- The J.Crew blouse calls for dry cleaning, while Kohl's calls for hand washing or delicate cycle inside out (another win in my book).
Do you get excited about look-a-likes, or do you prefer to splurge on the real thing? I'm usually a loyalist, but I couldn't pass up the sleeved version... I may have gotten all three colors.
LOVE seeing this look for less version. Loved the J.Crew but just can't justify the price. I'm a big fan of Kohl's so I will definitely be picking up this blouse!
ReplyDeleteYeah! I hear you completely on Tilda! I just couldn't spend $100+ on a sleeveless blouse. Hope you enjoy your Kohl's version :) and thanks for stopping by!
