Best of Target GO International

Yes! Deadline #1 complete!


I think I should stop looking at so many fashion blogs. My topics are getting a bit monotonous and shallow. There are bigger things to ponder. I even thought of styling one dress into many different looks but I'm probably better off sticking to food pictures... which reminds me I've been so busy with my deadline I skipped over dinner. Discussing fashion and missing a meal? These are very unusual times indeed.

Speaking of fashion, I discovered ASOS Women's Magazine. I LIKE! Great design, ideas and available online. I also like browsing their online store but shy away from international shipping... which is currently free wordwide!

Also, I am very behind on GO International.

Target has suddenly opened up their leftover stock or re-released several of their best dress collaborations. And they are all on... ready? Sale! I know for some girls it's shoes or purses or makeup but I think for me it's dresses. It's my soft spot. I wish I could wear a dress everyday. Although it might clash with my usual ensemble of sweatshirts and Air Force Ones/Uggs (thank you maxi dresses). I stopped by my local stores to try on as many as I could. It's slim pickings now but I got to try a few.

LIBERTINE
The name reminds me of Free People (but it's not) and Albertine (even though that's not related either).


I liked the tulip skirt. Two sides split for room to move but if you were standing straight the design looks slimming.
Unfortunately the top was rather tight on me and detail on top doesn't look so great in person.
I would wear this for work... if I had to dress up for work.

PROENZA SCHOULER
Did you know this line began as a senior thesis collection at Parson's School of Design? Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez created the luxury line's name by combining their mothers' maiden names.

Nice idea of a dress. 
I have no idea how this model got the top to fit.

RODARTE
This reminds me of all the headlines Natalie Portman made for wearing a $40 dress on the red carpet. SHOCKING!?! Really? This is top headline news? The saddest part is that I remember this but have forgotten majority of my world's geography. So there's problems in Tunisia... and that would be somewhere in Asia? Oh, Africa!?!


I like the contrast styling of prim and proper lace with combat boots.
Don't miss with this princess she probably does MMA at night.

THAKOON
He will always remind me The September Issue documentary and Ms. Anna Wintour. Which already makes him slightly fabulous. In the movie, he was doing a collaboration with GAP.


I would have liked this as a romper. The blue as the shorts, green as a breezy top.
Besides the winding neckline there isn't much detail. 
You would need an interesting belt or fun accessories to rock this one.


TUCKER
By Gaby Basora. Hmm... $300 vs. $30. Thanks Target!


I tried on the blue dress.
Would never have thought to layer a blouse on underneath.


ZAC POSEN
For some reason I always link his name to black blazers. I can't believe he's my brother's age. An alum of GenArt's Fresh Faces in Fashion; I'm glad GenArt is making a comeback.


I didn't try this one on but it's still available online.
If only dresses grew on trees.

I only bought one.
The one I thought would be most versatile and fun to style up.
Which do you think?
