The Budget Fashionista

Bitten, IS SOOOOOOOOOOOO Bad. Sarah yoou know these clothes are UGLY and you know that you will not wear them so get out now and do not try this again. Stick to what you do best.

The whole line looks ok but the peacock and camo outfit is just horrible. It looks like men?s clothing. Therefore by association I do not like any of these clothes. You are right about how everything looks like the Gap.

I saw on Styledash that they are actually delaying this line to redesign it because reaction to these photos was so bad.

It’s not really THAT bad, just incredibly boring. But what else can we expect from fashion these days...we’ve brought back Mod and have apparently forgotten why it went out of style in the first place. Most of the Mod looks do not flatter a woman’s body. Quite the opposite in fact. SJP doesn’t really have any creative room in today’s fashion market. And if it’s really her fabulous stylist, let’s start a petition to get Patricia Fields to start up an affordable line.

PS: Co-sign on the peacock and camo...are they serious about that?!!

It just reminds me of anything I could buy at Old Navy. Blah, plain and not too exciting. I’ll go for khakis under $20 if they are well made.

We are getting a Steve and Barry’s next month, so that whole experience will be new to me.

This reminds me of the stuff I buy a couple of times a month...for my 14 month old daughter (except for the whole peacock and camo bit). 
BOOOORRRINNNG!
I am so bored to death with fashion these days that I’ve really just quit going to department stores and have resulted to shopping at Target and Wal-Mart.
Seriously.
I found the cutest red polka dotted sundress and a bright YELLOW PATENT LEATHER bag at Target.
The dress was twelve bucks and the bag was 19.

Poo on companies slapping someone’s name on a line and thinking we’ll buy it.
If it’s ugly enough, I wouldn’t even LOOK at a line with someone’s name on it.
You can pay me a gazillion dollars to put my name on a line and make it the laziest and least efforted design ever.

Boring, boring, boring

Nay. BIG nay. These are items that look great on SJP, but not on a real person with a normal body.

Looks like the same ole same ole to me.  I would have loved to see some of the chic, quirky outfits that SJP wore in the first couple of seasons of Sex/City.

i’m not going to throw out my entire wardrobe and only wear this stuff, but honestly, it’s not that bad.  yeah, it’s boring, but it’s basics.  i personally like basics, so i’m okay with it.  it’s cute.  =)

Wow - those pictures DO look like they are from the GAP! And let’s just say that I haven’t been impressed with the GAP since about 1999.

I do not know about this Steve & Barry place but I do know these clothes look lame and cheap!

Those clothes are so dull.  There’s nothing special to them, nothing to separate them from anything else already out there.  I mean, it looks like the same sort of stuff you could get at the Gap, Target, JCPenney, wherever.  There is just no style to the line AT ALL (and what’s up with that jumper?  Can you say MOM CLOTHES???).

I am very disappointed.  I was hoping for clothes with at least some redeeming fashion value, something maybe even a little exciting, but instead we get stuff that most of us already have in our closets.  Bitten = Been There, Done That.

I really like SJP’s style but this stuff looks a little lame.  Maybe you are right, she has a great stylist.

I said yay a few weeks ago in regard to SJP’s new line. But its not that impressive. I expected more from her than this. No go on the high low.

well all I’ve got to say is that camo pants are never a good thing unless your in the army. So what the hell is she thinking.

this line looks like its doing a real half assed job at being trendy, and completely failing at it. Basic, boring, whatever. At least it’s cheap.

They’re… clothes. Not great, not terrible. Good enough, probably.

I still don’t see how or why SJP is supposed to appeal to customers 20 years younger than she is. I know that we all want to see ourselves as young and hip as we get older, but in reality high school kids (and college kids etc) aren’t looking to anyone 40 years old as a fashion avatar.

thank you for posting the pictures and not being cowed by steve and barrys lawyers. i believe the pics should stand for themselves.
i think the line is garbage. it looks like something a kid wouldnt want to wear after wearing it once.
and no one is going to believe that SJP “designed” 500+ items.
howevr i disagree with kathryn finneys assesment that the line is in any sense of the word “fashion forward”.

Ick.  So disappointed and not impressed.  She couldn’t have possibbly designed this stuff.  Even without a sytlist she’s bound to be better than this on her own.

Lame, boring, and WTF is up with the belt under the boobs?!  And wide legged white drawstring pants don’t look good on anyone, even SJP!  BLEAH!  I won’t be buying any of this.  Cathy, above, is right - looks like Gap circa 1999 and I haven’t been impressed with them since then, either!

Very common designs, another version of Old Navy stuff or the GAP (you’re absolutely right), very very disapointing...I think stars should focus on their acting and leave the designing to those that have a talent and a vision.

I don’t think we have a Steve & Barry’s, I just moved across country, but I’ve never heard of the store either way.  I wouldn’t buy any of this unless the quality was great, and it sounds like that won’t be the case.  I’d rather do the hunt and gather thing and buy a better brand on sale; quality basics never go out of style, but cheap basics...well, what’s the point?  Trendy stuff is where one should save their money, I think.  And I’m not at all basic in my style, I am much more like Carrie from SATC!

Very boring and no different to a dozen other high street stores, including the GAP. Having said that, I’ve not thought much of SJP’s style anyway, not since she left Sex and the City.
