White Jeans and Pony Hair
Who said white jeans are just for summer? Not true. I paired up a pair of Target winter white jeans with a black "leather" stripe with this fun pony-hair sweatshirt. That sweatshirt is WAY thick and warm, so I saved this one for a brrrrrrr cold day! (Are you guys SICK of this coat yet??? Well, I gotta say, it has been my most FAVORITE buy of the season! I wear it ALL the time … [Read more...]
The AWESOME Shop from Target
Two of my FAVORITE things... TOGETHER!! In case you didn't know, Target has created a site that has curated their most pinned items from Pinterest. BRILLIANT. Basically, its most popular items pinned get a spot in the shop! Um HELLO? Genius! Makes total sense, right??? It's like the marriage of the most amazing shopping/good stuff/fashion/trendy/style/domestic entities! {did you understand that at all???} So meet The Awesome … [Read more...]
Travel Style and Comfort
Two things here... well, really three. Travel, style, and the jogger pants. Remember those? The jogger pants? I kinda chatted a little bit about them HERE, and although most of mine are kinda cargo style, but not all are, and not all are silk, and I'm seeing them more and more of them here lately. Are you seeing them when you're out shopping? I know I am. So I was on a little getaway this weekend with the fam and a few other peeps.... … [Read more...]
Capes Part 2: I am superwoman.
A Friday fashion follow up to THIS and the wishy washy weather made me pull out my cape of 3 years for the FIRST time. I snipped the tags and wore it... and LOVED it! I will say... the only thing hard about a cape is carrying a SHOULDER bag, but I still made it work. It was doable. Mine is actually a deep charcoal wool and I wore the ever so coveted KISS T-shirt underneath from … [Read more...]
Five From Target
I'm obsessing over these five things from Target this week. Some little details that are awesomeness about these... that glass on that table is SMOKEY as in HOT! {big grin}, those little specs you see on the glasses, those are gold dots, and the pillow has amaaaaaazing black little beads on it. DIVINE! Love all these little beauties that will add some special touches to your home without breaking the bank. All of … [Read more...]
3.1 Phillip Lim for Target
In case you weren't aware, Target's latest collaboration was with Phillip Lim and I made my way out to my favorite super store this morning to check things out and see what needed to come home with me.... This beautiful BIG number came home with me for the hubs (I guess you can tell travel is on my mind).... A few others that made their way into my life.... and this.... that I styled like … [Read more...]
These Boots Were Made for Walkin
See if you can guess what store was the FIRST store I ventured into upon coming back to the states? DING DING DING!!! If you guessed TARGET you win $10,000!!! HA! But seriously, we all know how great of a store that is, right? As I made my way down the aisles, these were all lined up and jumped out at me. Here are some of the cool new looks for fall (yes... I said the F word... is it getting close to that time already???) that I saw, and it … [Read more...]

I am tickled pink wanna squeal with delight with this one, my most recent purchase (as in YESTERDAY) I had to share with you! First... take a peek at what it was... I just picked up this number on my most recent trip to Target when I went to buy all of 4 things (none of which were … [Read more...]
Neutral Sandals
I donno how you roll, but I'm a creature that gravitates to the same thing over and over again. I thought about doing a post on sharing how many "neutral" shoes I have, or how many gold bracelets I have to layer, or how many pale pink nail polishes I have.... you get my drift right? Always going for the same thing THINKING oh but this one is a LITTLE different. Right? HA! yeah, not so much! So as the new summer season has been approaching, … [Read more...]
On Target Decor
If you're anything like me, you can relate going to Target with a list of 5 things and walking out with a cart FULL of goodness you had NO plans to bring home, but they WILL find a perfect place at home with you. Right? We can talk more in detail about WHAT ends up home another day. But today, FOR the home. From Target... Seriously, you do not have to spend a fortune to make your home look like a fortune. So here are some of my favorites … [Read more...]
This is my first.
So here is my first. My first ever true "fashion" post I'm sharing. Sure, I take tons of selfies, but never have done this. I've always enjoyed seeing the everyday style of fashion bloggers and never thought I could do it. So, I finally said, "Here I go!" So humor me by saying it's ok even if its not! Remember this past December... when Neiman Marcus and Target had this huge collaboration with all these fab designers? Where it got lots of … [Read more...]
Spreadin the love… GIVEAWAY Wednesday
Just the basics. Remember those? I covered those here. So most of the basics, I've included below. We can't leave home without em, right? But..... a little HO HO HO Holiday cheer...... OH my..... Now.... I will tell you... remember 12-1-12? When I heard the designers "coming out" the RED LIGHT for me was Marc Jacobs. I SWEAR I'm in love with his bags.... I think I have over 20, not including these. Insanity. So I nearly … [Read more...]
It has arrived.
I donno why I was SO stinkin excited, but I was!! I donno if it's because if it's 2 of my favorite stores? Maybe if it's because of all the INCREDIBLE designers I love? Maybe because it was the first time EVER, so that means it's HISTORY in the MAKING? All I know is I was going to treat this like Black Friday. And I've never gone out and partaken in that day's events, so this early thing is all new to me. Here's how it all went down.... I … [Read more...]

Color Blocking
Something you will see all over this season... COLOR. You will see me talk about color lots in the coming weeks ahead. I noticed early this year when I went to Target and they were starting to hang decorative props from the ceiling that were all these vibrant colors. The next thing I noticed were some of those same props on their ads on TV. Yup. Color had made its arrival. Not only that, color blocking, where contrasting colors are put … [Read more...]
