Tara Jarmon for Target Fitted Cardigan with Satin Bow Sleeves $25

Man I love Target. Following Luella Bartley in their “Go International” Collection is French designer Tara Jarmon. Her flirty, feminine touch is all over the line, including this pretty half-sleeve cardigan with bow embellishments. Check out some of her non-Target stuff on bluefly.com and then hustle back to Target to snatch up […]

Tara Jarmon for Target Stretch Lace Shirt

This stretch lace shirt will look equally great with jeans and a blazer or a summer skirt. It also comes in black, and both look like they’ll need a camisol underneath. Unless you’re going for that risque, office-reputation look. In that case, no camisol should do the trick.

Cris Notti Sleep Mask $20

Sorry for the no-show posts last night. My sister just had the cutest peanut of a baby boy yesterday, and I was traveling like mad to meet him. Now that we’ve become acquainted (he loves me) I’m ready for bed (aka, my squished seat on the Amtrak home). I love these […]

Payless Nissa Gladiator Sandal $20

Can’t you just see toga-clad Roman women showing off their new metallic, polished-stone detailed “gladiator” sandals? Neither can I, but I can see me pairing them with a flowy skirt and huge shades, a la Roman Holiday.

Nicole Miller for JC Penny Bed Jacket $50*

Recently, Nicole Miller has breathed some (very stylish) life back into the department store, and this sleek, linen/rayon number is a fine example of her CPR skills. I’m not quite sure why it’s called a bed jacket, but throw it on to class-up any outfit. (A dress, camisole, band tshirt…even your PJs, I […]

Rock Scissor Paper Dahlia Dress Notecards 10.13*

It’s a bit overwhelming entering this stationery site. Every card, album, pin, scrapbook, etc. is so cute and fresh it sort of makes you head spin. Buckle down and troll through the site to find something that perfectly suits your taste (I’m pretty sure there’s something for everyone) and you’ll be happy you […]

Style Violet Mixed Bead Tiered Necklace $24

Another find to put the 15% off discount to good use. This wood and stone beaded necklace one-ups the single stranders and then some. Wear it with a simple scoop neck and almost non-existent earrings. The former to properly display the piece and the latter to avoid looking like a gypsy. […]

Style Violet Cropped Eyelet Jacket $34*

Since I’m a tall girl, cropped jackets can be tricky for me. But I’m willing to risk it for this Asian-inspired cotton eyelet jacket, which features a mandarin collar and cute contrast trim. It’ll go nicely with the season’s sundresses, especially the empire-waist variety. And It’ll look so much more polished than […]
