Blame it on growing up in the '80s, but when we think of Benetton, the first images that come to mind are brightly colored styles that veer more toward preppy more than Stevie Nicks. But we just got photos of some of the goods that are on sale at the brand's Shops at North Bridge location, and we've gotta say: we're sensing a little hint of rockstar.

The sale, which launches today, offers discounts of up to 50 percent on styles for women (sorry, gents, this is a women's-only store.) There are sharply patterned coats, floppy hats with studs, and grunge-inspired cardigans to be had at a steal. Take a look at some of the merchandise, and its freshly slashed pricing, below. Then rock on in that cardigan—we've got chilly days ahead.
