Gotta love my Target.

So, I don't know what it is, but I love Target.

I think a lot of people (mostly women) would agree with me. There is something about Target that just brings joy to my heart. Maybe it's because Target is one of the few good places to shop in Decatur. Or maybe it's because they have cute clothes, accessories, great home stuff, food, makeup, and anything else you could want or need (or at least, you convince yourself you need it. I apparently need something every time I go).

But anyway, I worked a busy busy 3 hour lunch shift til 2 and didn't have anything til church rehearsal at 7 (and let's face it, I needed to give myself time to warm up to the idea of going to the gym), so I thought I'd take a little trip out to Tar-jay. Also, I found out yesterday that Starbucks came out with Valentine's Day heart cups (I know, why didn't I know this sooner??), and the Starbucks is right by the Target, so, it made sense (Nevermind the fact that I would make a trip out to Starbucks just so I could get the cup).

The other reason I wanted to go to Target was also another reason why I love Target: the designer for less collections that come out. This time around, Jason Wu created a lovely collection for Target, and it's pretty much all under $70. It's full of classic pieces, including tie-neck cardigans, flirty knee-length dresses, trench coats, and skirts, including a pleated knee-length black skirt. Here are my favorite pieces:

Jason Wu for Target by hgies89 featuring blouses

Blouse, $35
Sweater, $50
Coat, $50
clothing, Jason Wu for Target, brand shop : Target, $50
Jason Wu for Target® Blouse with Tie in Blush Dots : Target, $35
Jason Wu for Target® Short-Sleeve Printed Cycle ... : Target, $50

Ugh. Love. The black, gray, and blush pink really suits me, too. There are pieces with blue and yellow as well but these speak to me the most, especially since they have the lace detailing. I gotta have my lace!

The collection debuted February 5th, so unfortunately, my store was completely picked over already. That adorable light pink and polka-dot tie-neck blouse was still there, and I really wish I could have bought it. That black lace clutch also gave me a hard time. I'm super bummed I don't get paid until next week. Then again, it's probably a good thing, because I would have bought every piece I loved.

 I also would have bought these leopard pumps I've been eying for weeks now! I have been on the lookout for some leopard pumps, and these are perfect!

I did check out the sizes, and they still have them in an 8 1/2! Hopefully they will still be there when I get paid next week :) But I should really just be good and save my money.... but I need to celebrate getting my first paycheck from my new job, right??? Yeah, I think that would be a good idea.
