Forever21 has come out with an extremely cute t-shirt line called Shibuya Mon Amour. It is exclusive to Forever21, and accompanying it, is a buzz from the media and public. They are very affordable, of course, ranging from $13.80 to $15.80. My favorites are the cat tees, since I have 5 cats myself. I also love the owl tunics because it's both adorable and sexy to wear those out during the summer. And if this t-shirt line doesn't tickle your fancy, just wait till the Alexander McQueen line for Target comes out in March 4th this year.
More about McQueen's line after the jump.
Those of you who read my post about Michelle Phan, she did a xanga blog post complaining about how Alexander McQueen's line isn't petite-friendly at all. However, I do love this particular dress.
The one-shoulder look aside, this dress updates the Greece goddess with futuristic maze-like prints. And it cinches at the waist, which is important for my rather straight silhouette. This dress at $69.99? Awesome~! Want to see more pictures? Don't forget to Target on March 4th.
New Yorkers, you can buy McQueen for Target collection before the rest of the country. Visit the Target McQ Market—a special pop-up store stocked with the entire collection—on Saturday, February 14 and Sunday, February 15 and shop yourselves silly. The store is located at 330 West Street (cross street: W. Houston) and hours are from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m. both days.
Here, we have the Chloe Saskia bag with STUDS. From the back, the bag looks zen-like with studs placed evenly within a square centerpiece. How enlightening! My friend said that this might be too big for daily use, but I'm a big bag type of person (all the better to keep all the books I carry around) and the studs have a biker-chick-turned-demure-lady feel to it, an oxymoronic tension I simply cannot say "no" to, so I'm very happy to say "YES, YES, YES!" to this bag. Good choice, my friend. One caveat is that while the Saskia is much lighter than Chloe's infamous Padingtons, the studded Saskia bag has a metal handle (very slick and pretty), and enough leather and room to start worrying about its weight after contents. It's available at Net-a-porter for $2,700.
And then there is Jimmy Choo. The Lara shoulder bag seems to use the same leather as JC's Saba bag, which means it's ultra soft and light. Personally, I wasn't in love with the leather when I touched it in person, but this bag still won me over with its beautiful form and ultra roomy functionality. Ok, so I have a weakness of white bags, but doesn't the boxy shape just remind you of Hermes' Lindy bag? The Lara shoulder bag has straightforward 11-inch handles that will ensure easy carrying, and I'm pretty sure you can fit a football in there. Now, beside the lobster clasps on the sides of the bag, the bag's also attached to its handles with cute gold lobster clasps. So I started thinking...you could probably change things up and use only ONE handle on this bag. You can do this by using two lobster clasps on the end of one handle!! Of course, you probably wouldn't want to do that because the great expandable style of the bag would be wasted. But hey...can't blame me for thinking up reasons to like this bag! Available at Net-a-porter for $2,250.
