Target Tuesdays: Back to Basics-> Colored Denim 'n Trench Coats

Oh lovely dayyyyyyyyy! Yes, another week of Target Tuesday keeps on rolling in good things in the New Year. But what is up with this weather lately?! The weather has been ridiculously good to us during January (which is not surprising to me at all since it's always very nice around my birthday for the last 5 years). It's almost like a faux spring day when the grass is getting greener and the weather is starting to perk up after a yucky winter. But we haven't had a winter really. Who knows...

I'm honestly glad that the weather decided to reflect my mood (for once) because I had this really great idea to brighten up my wardrobe during this time of year (and quite honestly I was almost scared to commit to this outfit if there was snow on the ground! Not a pretty pic at all). Target has been rolling out the summer stuff before the holiday season ended and I love it! I know "colour blocking" has been up and down the blogosphere, runways, and forecasting sites but I can never get enough of bold prints in one outfit. To me it's not a trend...it's just the style of dress that fits me the most. This outfit makes me feel so colourful...skittles ain't got nothing on me today!

I LOVE C O L O U RRRRRRR!

Target Tuesdays: Autumn Florals and Cropped Jackets

Like every fashion maven, fall seems to be one of my favourite times of the year to layer rich colours and cropped jackets without the fear of being under dressed for the forthcoming winter weather. This is the time of year where your coat can still compliment your overall look of the day without being swallowed by a drab looking winter coat, swimming to your knees down (and trust me, I hate the cold, so my winter coats have to cover everything!) 


As you know every Tuesday, I style an outfit from head to toe exclusively from Target for the trendy fashionista on a budget. Target has always been known for it's fashion forward apparel so for me it was a natural fit to rise to the style challenge from week to week to create an outfit for my blog! Especially for those who live upstate NY like me where the big name stores are obsolete (I so wish we had....)


So today for Target Tuesday I focused on the burgundy berries and the mushroom grays to really pull this autumnal look together. The all-over printed skirt creates a rich and effortless look which can be paired with a cropped jacket for an edgier yet professional and polished look. Plus the neutral base colour in the skirt and the bag with the shoes really compliment the overall outfit without looking overly matchy in one hue. The functional pockets are a fashion bonus for my lipgloss and cell phone which I must have within reach- nothing is worse than fumbling through your purse to look for a small tube of gloss! I could easily wear this to work during the day and slip away to an evening event with this edgy look
