I purchased the Dana Buchman top I didn't try it on cause I wear a Medium so I brought it home & didnt try it on for a few days its snug. The material & style I love, does she make her products smaller, it's almost looks like I gained a few!! Does anyone feel the same way as I do.

Love the Dana Buchman Cup Sleeve summer tops. I wish she made them in Navy,
Brown, Red and Chocolate. I’ve bought 9 of them this year. Love them.

i saw my mom admiring a d. buchman purse n wanted 2 buy it 4 xmas.the original price was $165 and w/the sale it came to $55(kohls seems to be famous 4 their sales but it seems obvious that the prices are jacked up so that when they have a ‘sale’ u feel like u actually saved something).now that ive read the reviews i think i’ll buy something else.too bad-the purse LOOKED gorgeous.

I purchased 2 items from Kohls in the Dana Buchman line and I am very displeased with both purchases. The purse within 2 months had a rip in the handle. The dress sandles the webbing on the sides ripped on them. I am very displeased with the brand. They look great but do not hold up at all. I have only worn the sandles maybe 6 times. The purse everyday but only for about 2 months.

Bought 2 Dana Buchman purses at Kohl’s. Worst mistake I made, they keep falling apart. the straps have what looks like a buckle on the bag and the bar that goes though falls out.Keep taking them back!!! They look nice but they weren’t made to use, just look at them . Got one for my Grand-daughter and her’s broke.. Sooo Trrried of being ripped off !!! HELP

I too, am not impressed with the Dana Buchman clothing line at Kohl’s. Being 38 and plus size (double whammy 🙂 ) I saw a cute dress online but have never seen it in the store. I did find a cute pair of shoes today and with the early bird specials paid a little more than I would have if I went to a chain shoe store so why not, we’ll see, as I was looking around, I saw some of her jewelry. I’ve never been a chunky jewelry person but the pieces I saw I could see myself wearing…but that is for another shopping trip.

I am extremely disappointed with a new purse I bought about 2 months ago; I bought it on sale for around seventy dollars. I am not trying to sound stuck up, but I typically will splurge once a year or every two years and buy a Coach purse. Not wanting to spend that kind of money, and really wanting a new purse…I figured (how bad can a purse be for half the cost?) Well, I totally love the style, but the quality is horrible! The front pocket threads are pulling loose and today I find holes in the lining of the other pockets!! I am so bummed!!! I always thought it was crazy to spend a lot of money on something so simple but the difference is unreal!! I was hoping that I could continue to buy “cheaper” purses, but I have just been reminded of why I don’t.

Thanks

When I first saw Dana Buchman’s Tunic – I was thorougly impressed with the color and design. I went to the Kohls to try on one that I had literally fallen in love with – TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT.
There is no Consistency in the sizes – it says L -but will look like XL. Size M was tooo tight and S was just right!!!!! NO two Tunic of the same size and color measures the same.
So I tried the S – though it fitted – it was totally off on the neck – like someone pulled it from left!.
The design cut & stitching are PATHETIC. Needs lot of quality control.

My 75 yr old Mother purchased a Dana Buchman tote (fake leather) hand bag for me as a thank you gift back in Feb 2009, when her line was first introduced to Kohls store. Since that time I have exchanged that bag 4 times for a new one due to the handle falling apart. This bag retails for 96 dollars. She paid cash for it and no longer has the receipt, so the only thing they will do is offer me a new bag or store credit of 46 dollars. I can get a REAL leather bag for the same price that will not fall apart.

I also have to agree. I am “of a certain age ” - 45 - and the clothes were “yawn” and uninspiring. I went in because I had seen some great Buchman tunics, and the Kohl’s stuff is really dull, no , it is an even worse D word - DOWDY.

Too bad.

I saw some pieces early on and was like- wow it could work but Kohls has a habit of pricing their items too high for the quality (vera wang???), why would anyone pay $98 for a pleather handbag? or $130 for a pair of boots, when you can get a pair of leather boots from DSW for less than $75? Just doesn’t make any sense and I am not sure where they are coming from.

@EmilyKennedy - totally agree with Kohls being a bit more dumpy… I grew up with Kohls and it has a very midwestern focus, but where I am from (Minneapolis), people still like style (hello home of Target!)

Kathryn, I was waiting on your thoughts re: this line! I saw a few items in O magazine in Feb and thought nice can’t wait. Well, I reviewed the items online before hitting my local store…just okay. Hit the store and couldn’t find the line..poor product placement for a new line and then more online then in the store?
Not impressed and a let down. However, I did purchase a Bohemian tunic I had seen in O magazine, I liked the fabric and the price. Normally, $52 w/ 30% off and
$10 off that price (received discount card in the mail specifically to be used for Dana Buchman). Price - $25, I wouldn’t have paid more…and frankly, there is nothing else in the line I’ll be rushing back to get.
