Isabel Toledo Teams with Payless for Affordable Handbags and Shoes

Posted on: Mar 23

We can soon get the First Lady's look for less, with Isabel Toledo confirmed to design a capsule collection for Payless.

The line won't feature a suit like the pale yellow-green one Michelle Obama wore at the president's inauguration, but it will include affordable handbags and shoes. The range will feature a fun selection of fabrics, including patent leather, rubber, and mesh, and not one piece costs more than $40!

"For me, fashion is personal and intimate, I love the unexpected, and I am truly excited to join Payless in its continuous mission to democratize fashion," Ms Toledo said. "As a fashion designer, I focus on the consumer to create designs that are meaningful, inventive and very functional. Shoes must be flattering and wearable, and I am thrilled to collaborate with Payless to create something new and fresh for all women through my new Payless shoe line."

The collection will be available in Payless stores across America this fall. Apparently this is just one of many collaborations in the works for the budget retailers, so I can't wait to see who's next!
