Charlotte takes her coveted cool to the discount aisles.

Recently, some fashion writers have condemned JCPenney, saying it doesn’t belong in a trendy arena.  But we respectfully disagree with the idea that the superstore is only for fridges and microwaves, and here’s why:

Charlotte Ronson just launched her second collection there, and it’s gorgeous.

The clothes are a mix of clingy, long tees (as seen on family friends like Jessica Szohr and Mischa Barton), cropped flannel shirts, and tons of leggings, plus a few accent items like blouses and dresses in Charlotte’s trademark hippie prints.

Can you go to the Oscars in this stuff?  No.  But with a great pair of heels, some lipstick, and layering, you could show up at any velvet rope and fully expect to waltz right inside. 

Bonus:  Your outfit will probably cost less than your bar bill.  Which isn’t just egalitarian – it’s also damn cool.
