I try to avoid impulse shopping by going into a store already knowing what I want/need to buy, or waiting a few days to decide if I truly want/need it. And when I can’t stop obsessing over something in my head, it becomes a must-have. Such was the case with this striped J. Crew shirt and this neon/fluoro/hot pink Celine Leather Luggage Tote. I first saw the bag online on Savannah Brinson (Lebron’s...

One of our haute readers emailed us on a quest to track down this plaid ruffle shirt: “Love this shirt but can’t find it anywhere! Can you help me? Thanks! – Alison” Well, Alison, the shirt is the Susie Rose Juniors Cinched Ruffle Front Plaid Blouse, from Walmart. It doesn’t look like it’s available for purchase right now so we picked several similar options for... 

LUXURY: Gucci opens its first children’s boutique (for babies to 8-year olds) in New York. It’s stocked with $3,800 biker jackets and $500 handbags. (Daily Mail) WALL STREET: 1%-er Jay-Z may be trying to capitalize on the Occupy Wall Street movement with his own line of ‘Occupy All Streets’ T-shirts under the Rocawear label.

Typically baby shower attire consists of little more than jeans and a shirt for most, but when the mommy-to-be is a fashionista, you know you have to step your game up. I recently attended my friend Adrienne’s baby shower last week and I knew that she and my other stylish friend Carmen would look uber-fab, so I decided to forgo my typical weekend top and jeans routine. I bought this Tucker dress... 

On one of the perfect, sun-filled days we had at the end of the summer, I pulled out this Kersh printed peplum-style top. Admittedly, I was never really a fan of the style – peplum dresses always conjure up images of awful eighties style to me – particularly the clothes Jackée Harry wore while playing sassy “Sandra Clark” on 227. Not to say that she wasn’t stylish back... 

After hearing all of the Missoni for Target online ordering horror stories and tons of tales of canceled orders, I guess I can consider myself lucky. I snagged some items from the pop-up shop in NYC on Fashion’s Night Out, plus I managed to order some more stuff when the website wasn’t crashing. This cardigan was one of my online orders and now that I have it, I wished I had ordered two....

We’ve pretty much got our eye on everything, from the women’s apparel and shoes, to the bags, scarves and even girl’s and baby clothing, plus that sweater for the... 

I have a favorite, secret TJ Maxx store that has THE BEST designer stuff. I’m talking Pucci wallets, Katherine Kwei knot clutch bags, Prada pumps and Fendi bags. These are the just some of the things I’ve bought/seen there. And this Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent batwing-style tunic top. It was between this and an Elizabeth and James blazer (still kicking myself I didn’t get both)... 

When it comes to designer collaborations, Target is the certified leader. But unlike Target’s previous collaborations (Rodarte, Calypso and Mulberry, and the upcoming Missoni line), the recently announced one isn’t for women or juniors – it’s for babies, children and tweens. Singer, fashion designer and style icon Gwen Stefani is partnering with Target to launch Harajuku Mini – a... 

Lucky Magazine challenged a group of its Alpha Shoppers, including me, to create a piece of statement jewelry using materials found at Michaels. As a former jewelry and handbag designer, and all-around crafty person, I was up for the task. The real challenge was limiting myself to creating only one statement piece! With my $50 gift card in hand, I headed out on a shopping trip to Michaels. It took... 

We recently showed you a preview of the highly coveted Missoni for Target collection, which will be available in Target stores this September. But apparently Target is keeping busy with several other designer collaborations. They announced a limited-edition accessories collection with South African milliner and  2008 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund runner up, Albertus Swanepoel, whose line will launch...

Well, there are more photos of the TV and print ad campaign, snapped by the paparazzi (who we love, for once). The 400+ piece Missoni X Target collection looks like it’s going to... 

Vogue broke the news that Target’s next collaboration is with none other than Italian brand Missoni. Famous for its squiggly-striped knits and multicolored zigzag-printed items, this is said to be Target’s hugest collaboration, in size, with 400+ items for sale, and probably in name too. We can’t wait for Missoni x Target, but we’ll have to since it doesn’t launch until...

Checking for new Target designer collaborations has become almost part of my routine, like having a morning cup of coffee. I look forward to it, I get excited over it, and I can’t wait till the next one! I heard about the Calypso for Target collaboration a few months ago but just recently received images of it and, like my next cup of coffee, am anxiously awaiting its arrival. Calypso St. Barth... 

There are few stores we love more than Target. It’s the perfect place to spend a weekend afternoon picking up all the things you need, and even more that you don’t, but really, really want! On a recent trip to Target for essentials, we found ourselves browsing the jewelry section and left with some cool new pieces – a few cute rings and a turquoise necklace. This led to browsing their...
