[Do you ever feel like you can’t pull something off? Have trendy pieces in your closet that you would never have the courage to actually wear out? Well take those pieces out, shake off the dust, and continue reading!

In this series, I will choose a different piece that can be difficult to incorporate into an outfit and give you ideas on how to wear it. If there’s anything you would like to read about in the future, please leave a comment!]

Bubble shaped skirts are a big trend this fall from the runways of designer brands like (see above) Dior, Armani, and Erin Fetherston. Like the ruffles we’ve seen all season, this silhouette is really flattering; the volume of the skirt makes your legs and waist appear tiny in comparison. It’s also a fresh look for any holiday parties you will be attending this season (you social butterfly, you).

In case you haven’t heard yet, Milla Jovovich and Carmen Hawk have been tapped to bring their Jovovich-Hawk line to the people by way of Target. A few photos of the collection have been leaked around the internet, and it looks great.

Jovovich-Hawk is known for a vintage-looking femininity, perfect for pulling off a boho look.

Target’s GO collection is perfect for those of us who love clothes, but hate spending money on them. Cheap clothes don’t have to be poorly designed, and Target’s lines are a perfect blend of high fashion and ready-to-wear style.

I was out of the country for a while, and sadly missed out on many of Target’s great lines (although I was lucky enough to snag a few pieces from the Kate Moss for Tophshop collection), but as soon as I got back I went on a spree, first picking up an adorable grey ruffled dress designed by Alice Temperley, and later a cardigan with heart-shaped buttons designed by Erin Fetherston.

Say it ain’t so.

Tell me it isn’t true.

There is no way Isaac Mizrahi would ever leave Target to design clothes for dowdy designer, Liz Claiborne, right?

Wrong.

According to the New York Times (I wish this article were in a less prestigious publication like Star or something… at least then I could argue its truth) Mizrahi is giving up on Target in search of greener (read: more lucrative) pastures. He has been named head designer at the failing label, in hopes that his big name and fashion-forward designs will pump some life into Ms. Claiborne’s line for women.

Obviously, Target is having a difficult time dealing with this news. Isaac Mizrahi was the first high end designer to work with Target, later inspiring many other exclusive designers to make clothes for the regular woman (Proenza Schoeller, Erin Fetherston, Vera Wang).

Without Mizrahi Target may lose out on potential new designers and, more importantly, their target (ha!) audience. Without Mizrahi Target may become…gasp….K-Mart! Read More »

I don’t know if any of you saw The Hills this week, but if you did manage to catch it, did you notice something unusual?

There was an entire commercial break dedicated to Erin Fetherston’s new line debuting at Target on November 18th! Talk about creating a buzz and “targeting” (sorry, I had to) your demographic!

That said, I may or may not be leaving the city and heading to my parents house in Pennsylvania this weekend. I may or may not be doing so to do a little pre-Black Friday shopping.

This may or may not involve a trip to a (huge) Target store in Delaware in order to land a few pieces from the new line.

Don’t call me pathetic! First of all, it’s smart so don’t hate. Two, if you know anything about New York City you know that Targets do exist (in the Bronx and Queens…no thanks) but like many urban superstores, they are so picked through that there’s no way I’d find anything. Especially in my size.

Why am I making this seemingly useless trip? Well, have you seen the line? It’s absolutely adorable. But not in a little girl way. It’s really just effortless and playful…exactly my style. Read More »

Big news!!!

Good old Target has done it again. Another hot designer is gracing the GO International line with her talent (not to mention, concern for us budget-stricken college girls): Erin Fetherston. Thanks to Glamour editor Ashley Baker at Glamour.com, the word is out.

As the announcement is extremely recent, samples of the designs have not yet leaked their way to the public.

Based on the young designers previous collections, the pieces for Go International may bear resemblance to Fetherston’s couture designs — oh la la.

Her signature style consists of dreamy dresses in silky/rich materials with a very feminine flare.

Compared to the tackiness of the Libertine collection that Lauren highlighted , it looks like Fetherston’s girly touch may be exactly what Target needs to redeem themselves.

I cannot wait to pound down those red doors, once her line hits the racks.
