I've had friends tell me over and over how much they love Kohl's. As an avid thrift store shopper, I finally made the plunge and went to Kohl's. \n\nFirst of all, of the clothing that they offered, I must say that I was really disappointed. I'm a 30 something and while I'm not going to go around sporting the hipster look, I'm not ready for retirement. Nothing I found was particularly fabulous and I ended up finding a few passable items in what I assume was the \"juniors\" area and quickly found out that there's a reason they have a juniors and a misses area in stores. The pants I bought even though I went a size up from my usual size were still not big enough for me. I'm not a teenage girl anymore I know.. but a bigger size was still so small I couldn't zip them up or even fit my thighs. I've put in panty hose easier than these pants and everything I found was hip hugger style. I was looking for casual office attire and instead I just looked like a 30 something trying to pathetically hold on to my youth or something. That, however, was the bad side. \n\nThe housewares.. bedding/linens, bathroom goods, kitchenware/cookware exceeded my expectations. If I can't find things at a thrift store, I'm either forced to look at Target or Walmart or pay the overpriced department store prices. Not true at Kohls. I found good quality for affordable prices and if you go at the right time and stick to the \"sale\" items, one can get a lot of very nice things for very little money. I could have spent a fortune there. I got the most beautiful duvet that although it was missing a sham from the set, it was normally $250 marked down to $54. I walked out of there with my \"savings\" at around $400 and aside from the clothing which I returned all of it, I had a good experience.\n\nOverall, I will still continue my shopping at other venues, but I will add in Kohl's to my shopping rotations when buying for the house.
