A New Day: Fab Under $50

Target: A place to excessively indulge in all of your wants and needs. They never disappoint, and the airborne "shopping trance" we all enter on arrival to the blessed store is not foreign to anyone looking for a sale on the largest kitchen appliance, baby registry gift, or timeless wardrobe piece. It's the place we try to drive past, but never quite hit the mark.

Clothing is the first line of attack when entering into Target. When balling on a budget, Target (or "Tar-Zayy as us fake bougie like to call it) is the premiere place for awesome accent pieces and trends that live on through the decades. Their new line "A New Day", does just that, with pieces all under $50, highlighting a time where wearing your husband/boyfriend's structured clothes were a thing.

Taking place of the much loved Merona and and Mossimo lines, A New Day features pieces sized 0-16 and XS-XXL, with women's ready to wear items that can be worn a bunch of different ways.

My first piece from the collection is this Women's Striped Shirt Dress.I emphasized the shirt piece, and paired it with a light wash pair of denim jeans. The shirt features a tie waist feature, without the rolling dilemma us plus girls encounter when the waist is a little fluffier. It also has pretty thin horizontal lines, reducing the vulnerability of widening me out, as stripes have the tendency to do.





The line is now available at Target.com. Check them out and be awed!

OOTD: Girl On Fire

"Life starts all over again when the air is crisp..."

As the leaves start to change, I knew what it was time to do. Break out the reds, oranges, sweaters, and heavier coats. And although I'm not quite ready to use them, that doesn't mean I can't get you guys ready in some kind of way!

My prequel to the fall starts off with this convertible wrap dress I got from my sister in fashion over at Sassie Girl Fashion. I literally felt like a girl on fire! Just LOOK at all of those vibrant colors! I felt like a mix between Carmen in Hip-Hopera and Selena, ready to bust a reggaeton hit or two. As you can see it hugs ALL the right places *a plus girl's favorite thing), and the fabric is still breezy enough if the sun happens to come out (spoiler alert: no sun this day.)

Another bucket list item for a self-proclaimed fashionista? Being able to re-purpose an old outfit. This dress makes that super easy! Although I went with the run of the mill wrap, this dress can be work over 25 different ways! One sleeve, halter, backwards, without sleeves...the possibilities are amazing! It also gives lots of stretch, so it doesn't hug too tight.




This convertible dress is available in a number of prints, and can fit up to a size 16. Head over to Sassiegirlfashion.com for a look at this versatile number, as well as her other awesome pieces for the fall. Happy hunting!


Faithfully,
