Introducing Juicy Couture Timepieces: The Ones To Watch!

Juicy Couture  has been a fashion superstar ever since celebrities began sporting the brand’s signature velour tracksuits back in the early 2000′s.  While Dillard’s has carried Juicy Couture fragrances for some time, and recently began offering Juicy Couture sunglasses, we are now proud to extend our line-up with Juicy Couture timepieces.

Like all things Juicy, these watches exude Southern California’s palm-tree ambiance and red-carpet  glamour.  We  especially like the Juicy Couture Pedigree silver bracelet watch with its silvertone-plated stainless steel and oversized XII on the face.   For those in love with shine, the Stella silver bracelet watch – with a Swarovski crystal dial — is the clear alternative!  Go for the gold with the Jetsetter round gold bracelet watch, which has a goldtone dial and crystal bezel.  Think pink with the Pedigree pink silicone watch.

After you pick your timepiece, why not add a pair of Juicy Couture shades like these Aviator Sunglasses?  Then complete your Juicy-self by applying a fragrance like  La La Eau de Parfum Spray.

Juicy Couture has always appealed to the young at heart. Start the clock on a newer, more adventurous you by shopping for a Juicy Couture timepiece now.

Is a watch part of your everyday accessory line-up?

Wedding Wardrobe FAQ

Congratulations, you’ve been invited to a wedding! Your next to-do? Picking what to wear. We’ve tackled frequently asked wedding wardrobe questions to get you there in style.

Q: The reception will be outdoors; any suggestions on shoes?
A: Skip the stilettos and go for wedges, chunky heels or flats. Wedges and chunky heels don’t sink into grass and provide more stability on uneven surfaces. Slip on flat, strappy sandals or peep-toe ballets with a touch of shimmer for a dressy look without the height.

Q: The invitation requests cocktail attire; what does that mean?
A: This is your time to shine! Skip floor-sweeping gowns for shorter dresses in lustrous fabrics with metallic high-heel sandals and dramatic earrings. Make sure to grab your favorite clutch for all your beauty essentials.

Q: I’m a bridesmaid and I’m worried about humidity and frizz. What products or tools are my best bet?
A: Try the T3 SinglePass 1” straightening iron. It’s your go-to tool for sleek, straight locks or lasting curls. Other frizz-fighting must-haves? For a summer wedding, try the Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Smooth Sailing Anti-Frizz Cream. Or try this 5-star favorite on Dillards.com, the Frederic Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Cream for softer, easier to manage hair.

Q: I’m going to a destination wedding. What are some great portable beauty products?
A: For a flawless look on-the-go, here are a few of our suitcase-ready favorites.

Q: As mother of the bride, how can I make a good impression without upstaging the bride?
A: That’s easy! First, remember 2 quick don’ts:

  1. Don’t wear white.
  2. Don’t match or clash with the bridal party.

After that, the dos are fun!

  1. Do find a flattering fit (maybe something with pleats or a matching bolero for extra coverage).
  2. Do match the formality (or casual feel) of the event.
