I was actually shocked at the sizing. I took a gamble on Ebay and bought a jumper. Normally in most mall or designer type clothes, the sizing doesn't go up high enough to fit me. While I'm a 14/16 in Old Navy, the rest of the world doesn't work on their sizing scale. :P Anyway, the XL jumper fit PERFECTLY and was even a little roomy.
Sadly, I don't know of a Steve and Barry's nearby or I would be there in a flash!
Everything is normally $20 and under...BUT there was a special sale EVERYTHING in the store $8.
For $62 I got 2 jean flood pants, a jacket, 2 pairs of cotton shorts...and my mom got shoes and sweat pants. So this was obviously a plus, getting all that and spending so little. I usually spend $62 on one shirt or something other places.
There are some negatives though...the sizing is a little small. Me and my mom needed one size up in everything, which is usually typical in cheaper clothing, but on a bright note, they do carry really big sizes, so your next size should still be there.
And I can't speak for all the stores, but this particular Steve & Barry's isn't in the hottest neighborhood. It's not the complete ghetto, but it was no place I would shop or dine if I wasn't on this specific mission. Because of this...the store was chaotic. The workers didn't care and clothing near the dressing room was piling up in huge heaps.
I guess my over all review is that the stuff is cute...and cheap cheap cheap...so it's definately worth looking and grabbing some pieces. But it's definately not some place someone can build an enitre wardrobe.
I have been to the store. I don't really like the store and I have to say I do not like her clothing line. I just think the clothes are too dull. Sorry no offense ot anyone who does like it. We all just have different likes and dislikes.
Just visited the website. That stuff is Cute and Cheap (Affordable)! I usually don't go for celebrity stuff, but I could see myself doing damage to my credit card on her clothing line.
Uh-oh! I used the store locator and found that the only one near me is "Coming Soon". I guess I could take a long drive up to one in the 'burbs though.
FINALLY went.
Here is the review...

Thanks for the review! I need some cheap pieces to round out my weekend wardrobe. Hopefully I'll find a great haul like yours.
The Bitten line has some good classic peices and yes, it does run bit small. I found a long tan winter coat in an XS that fit perfectly! There are some nice solid colored pants there also. I was a little disappointed, as I had hoped there would also be some trendy pieces, reminiscent of her character on Sex in the City, but it's hard to beat the price!
