Posted on 06/22/2009 at 06:02:05 AM | Comments (0)

If you're looking for a shirt to fit and flatter, try these tops from Rochelle Behrens, which fit well and are as stylish as can be. I absolutely adore this label from stylish Rochelle, and if you haven't checked out her collections so far, now's your chance. They are utterly stylish and fit so well, so take a look at these prime picks from the Rochelle Behrens collection.

The Designer

Rochelle Behrens was a Washington D.C. intern when she first noticed the problem: gaping shirts were makng her feel uncomfortable in the workplace. Now the designer of classic button-down shirts has been featured on The Today Show, The Daily Beast, Daily Candy, and more, and she's not stopping anytime soon. What's special about these shirts? They feature a specially-designed placket that provides extra room in the bust for those of us who need to stay away from the gaping thing that some shirts do all too well.

The Sales

I wasn't expecting a higher-end designer like Rochelle Behrens to offer sales picks from her shop, but she does. Right now, the entire store is marked down, with the signature shirts currently being offered for 30% off, or around $113.00. While that may still seem a little pricey, keep in mind that these specialty fit items won't disappoint.

Top picks include:

1. Rochelle's classic-button shirts with metallic buttons

2. The classic shift in croc print

3. Fitted tweed skirts

4. A tight tulip skirt in tweed or croc

The Press

As previously mentioned, the Rochelle Behrens Collection has been featured in plenty of high-profile news sources, including DC Mag, the Associated Press, Politico, Roll Call, and more. Project Beltway said last year of Rochelle that "Rochelle is smart as hell and has made a line of smartly tailored clothes for women who work and who don’t have time to fuss around getting dressed in the morning (even if we had the time, wouldn’t we rather sleep?). When I went to her trunk show back in July, the women were snapping up the blue scoop neck dresses like hotcakes…" Trust me, it's very unsurprising once you take a look at these pieces up close!

The Price Point

Jackets in the Rochelle Behrens Collection hit somewhere around $200-ish when on sale, but were originally priced at $355 before the season's discounting. The mainstay and must-have of Rochelle's work is certainly the button-down shirt, which is extremely stylish and priced under $200 when not on sale. Go for the 30% off now if that sounds too pricey! They are around $122 right now, which does represent significant savings.
