Alexander McQueen - Savage Beauty


The Alexander McQueen - Savage Beauty exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC is the most amazing exhibit I've ever seen. After waiting in the long lines, you are instantly transported to McQueen's world when you enter the exhibit. I always knew McQueen was a genius, but you realize just how much method there was to his madness when you see all the collections and pieces assembled together.

Some of my favorite pieces:




Karl Lagerfeld For Macy's





I just posted about the Missoni for Target line, and I have to let you all know about the Karl Lagerfeld line for Macy's. The dress above is my favorite from the line. I can't wait to try it on at the store. The Lagerfeld line will be available at Macy's stores and online August 31st.

Missoni For Target




I'm a huge fan of the designer collaborations for Target, and I cannot wait for the Missoni line this fall. How cute is this outfit? The Missoni line will be available in Target stores and online on Sept. 13th. Now, if only Marc Jacobs would design a line for Target... I'd be in heaven!

Deep In The Heart Of Texas



I recently accepted a new job in DC, so my days in Texas are numbered. While I'm sad to leave my home state, I'm excited about moving to a new city, starting a new job, and making new friends. I love Texas and I hope to keep it near to my heart with an awesome Maya Brenner necklace. Eva Longoria and Jessica Simpson have the Texas necklace while California gurl Katy Perry sports the California one. I've even seen Snooki wear it on Jersey Shore.

The Comeback

Well, it's been just over a year since I've updated this little blog of mine, but I have traveled to Japan and California, and now I'm totally inspired! I hope I can keep up with this from now on and I hope someone out there reads this!

Spring Break Style

I love going on trips in the spring, and in a couple weeks, I'm heading to Mexico. I can't wait to lay out by the pool and sip tropical drinks, but before I head on my big trip, I need to hit the mall.

Swimsuits - You can't go on spring break without one. As in previous posts, I think Target is the best place to get your new swimsuit. They're inexpensive and super duper cute. Here are a couple that I really like.

Xhilaration Juniors Stripe Bikini - Turquoise/White
$14.99/piece



In case you're a one piece kind of girl, you'll be poppin' in this purple suit:

Merona Bandeau Shirred One Piece - Purple
$34.99



Flip Flops - My absolute favorite flip flops are Havianas. Sometimes I find them on sale at Nordstrom Rack, and at Urban Outfitters. I could walk all over the place in them, and I love that they come in so many different colors. I love these metallic ones from Zappos.

Havianas Top Metallic

$18

Sunblock - Never lay out by the pool without protecting your skin and your face. I usually use a cheaper sunblock like Hawaiian Tropic on my body and a more expensive one for my face, because I don't want my pores to get all clogged up from the sunblock. Sephora has some great sunblocks.

At under $20, this is a great choice. Clinique is a great brand, it's oil-free and best of all, it is SPF 40. I wouldn't use anything less than SPF 30 on my face if I was laying out by the pool. It's also got antioxidants and it can be used under makeup as a primer.

Clinique Super City Block

$17.50

Gaultier Does Target


I love it when Target partners with high fashion designers to bring the masses affordable clothes. Well, they've done it again. Head to your local Target March 7 to snag some threads by French designer John Paul Gaultier.
