Inspiration is Everywhere


Here is another cool idea from Target. Target believes (and I second it!) that inspiration in style can come from anywhere, whether it's a piece of art, a mural in your city, a song on the radio or simply any object around you! To prove this, Target challenged me to find any item in their store and get inspired by it in my style and boy, I went wild =) Everywhere I looked I could come up with at least a few different looks, but as soon as I saw these headphones, I immediately remembered my favorite color combination (orange+black+white) and thought that it was time to utilize it again! Came up with this preppy and playful look with elements of male fashion (hello ties!) all styled mostly with Target items - meaning, you don't have to break a bank to look stylish and original! ;)

Blogger Style Session

Here is another fun project from Target. This time Target paired me up with the lovely Ashley from Life, Love and the Pursuit of Shoes for a little styling session. We were supposed to dress each other according to our styles. You can check out how I styled her here.
So Ashley and I had a little chat about my recent obsession for all-black looks and thigh-high boots. We both are very excited to finally be able to rock fall fashion and this is the look that we came up with for me: total black outfit with a pretty skater skirt and a chic sheer blouse with a white bow. And of course.....my new thigh high boots. I still can't believe they are only $70! Such a steal!

The Boo Challenge

Target has challenged me to take my "boo" to the store and have him create a look that truly represents my personal style. I chose to take my friend Ricky for a little styling session and this is the look that he came up with: edgy faux leather with a touch of gold.
I am also excited to announce my partnership with Cosmic Cart, the universal shopping cart for the web. Cosmic Cart lets you buy items from multiple retailers without having to leave my site! When you see the Cosmic Cart icon on the photos, just click it to shop the look. It's that simple!

This time around Target has challenged me to create three different looks with the new fall white Mossimo shirt using the older pieces from my wardrobe.

Flaunt It Friday

Target challenged me to post about the feature I am flaunting at the moment and it was actually harder than I thought. I am sure lots of you ladies can relate with me. If someone asks me what body part I am insecure about I will give them a long list of what-s and why-s, but when asked what part I actually like I got a little stuck... I started thinking what part of my body gives me the greatest confidence boost and allows me to wear daring outfits with confidence and I came up with a conclusion that it's my face! When I sleep well and have clear skin, I feel my best and tend to choose more interesting looks than when I am tired and don't want to attract much attention :) So to work what I've got I try to sleep well, stick to a healthy lifestyle (even though it's not a 100% commitment yet :) ) and most importantly, take care of my skin. I obviously do regular facials, but using the right products is crucial. My current favorite is Laneige Water Bank Serum which is lightweight yet very hydrating. I don't even need moisturizer after it. This product helped me stay "picture ready" throughout the whole New York Fashion Week! And what about you? What body part are you flaunting at the moment?

Skinny Boyfriends and Gosling

I'd like to start this post by saying thank you so much for your support on my latest post. Your words of encouragement gave me reassurance that I am moving in the right direction. I am so grateful for each and every one of you! My first non-fashion post is still cooking ( is there a hint here?!:) ), so for now we are back to outfits!
I am usually not a big fan of light denim, but these boyfriend jeans from Target made me change my mind. They are actually called skinny boyfriend jeans, because they are not as lose at the bottom as regular boyfriends would be. That, plus 90s inspired wash and relaxed low rise fit made me absolutely fall in love with them. Styled them with a dreamy tee from ASOS and simple shopping tote. 
What about you, do you prefer light or dark denim?

Triple Denim

No matter how many seasons and trends go by, one thing is a classic - DENIM! From light to dark, skinny to bootcut, short or long - you can never go wrong with denim. I picked up a perfect pair of jeans in Target and decided to experiment with denim-on-denim trend and went a little too far...or did I? :) I created a daring look by wearing three different shades of denim combined with white details . Voila - I am ready to rock'n'roll =)

One Dress Three Ways


I love a dress that I can style for many different occasions and this one from Target is another one of those. I absolutely love how it goes from casual to elegant with the right accessories.
I am also excited to announce my partnership with Cosmic Cart, the universal shopping cart for the web. Cosmic Cart lets you buy items from multiple retailers without having to leave my site! When you see the Cosmic Cart icon in photos, just click it to shop the look. It's that simple!
So for the fist look I turned the dress into a skirt by wearing a crop top and a wide belt to make the transition from top to bottom smoother. This outfit is a perfect elegant look for a day full of meetings.

Everyday Value

As much as I love to dress up and change my outfits every day, I sometimes find one item that I am obsessing about (which will definitely be versatile!) and wear it several times a week creating different looks with it. But regardless of the frequency of wearing one item, we all love to have a huge selection of clothing at home ;) But how do we keep it going without spending all our monthly salaries on it? The solution is Target Style! They have a huge selection of everyday value pieces which are extremely affordable and so versatile! For example, I got this nautical crop top for just $16.99 (What a steal!) and I already have countless options of styling it in my mind! Here is just one of them: high waisted pencil skirt, my top and brown accessories - simple, chic and definitely elegant! ;) 
By the way Target has a huge selection in each category of "10 steals of summer" being that swimsuits, crop tops, dresses, sunglasses, shorts, tees, bags, sandals, drapey pants and whites -  you are covered from top to bottom! =)
I am also excited to announce my partnership with Cosmic Cart, the universal shopping cart for the web. Cosmic Cart lets you buy items from multiple retailers without having to leave my site! When you see the Cosmic Cart icon in photos, click it to shop the look. It's that simple! Happy shopping!
