NEW YORK, April 18 (Reuters) - Liz Claiborne Inc. said on Thursday first-quarter earnings rose 12 percent on improved sales of its full-price apparel and on lower expenses, and it raised its second-quarter profit outlook.

The New York-based company -- whose stable of brands includes Liz Claiborne, Lucky Brand, and Russ for Wal-Mart Stores Inc. -- said its results were boosted by the inclusion of Mexx, a European brand acquired last year.
