First Post --- Jason Wu for Target


Excited about the anticipation of the Jason Wu line for Target, I had a dream early Sunday morning.  The dream was me fighting through crowds of women lined up for the release!  I woke up in a panic that I was not going to get to Target early enough!  I jumped out of bed, got ready and got to Target a half hour after they opened.  Shockingly the rack was almost wiped out!(see top right photo)  I grabbed what I could to try on, and ended up buying the products that you see in the photo on the bottom right.
About the Products I Purchased:

  • The top is a cute navy floral print with lace upper. I have already worn it paired with burgundy skinny jeans and a cream blazer.  
  • The clutch is straw with a black cotton fabric flap, and gold hardware.  It will be a great day clutch for spring/summer!  
  • The tote bag is canvas fabric with painted blue/yellow stripes and short straps, also a great piece for  spring/summer.  

Overall the collection had a Parisian feel, with hints of nautical colors and stripes.  Quality was okay(similar quality fabrics that you would find at Target normally), but prices were reasonable.
