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!

Faithfully,

Happy Spring everyone! It's been a while, and I figured I should re-surface during the season of growth! Along with my re-vamped blog site, I come gracing you with a new outfit of the day!

Today, I decided to mix prints like only I can. I was talking to a fellow fashionista the other day, and she asked me what were some of my go-to spring trends/fashions. My answer was simple; mixing prints, dramatic sleeves, and an ode to the 80's and 90's fashions that have quickly been resurfacing.

I did 2 of my 3 staples in this outfit, and I'll have to resist the urge to wear the outfit again and again.

This peep shoulder top is a couture find I scored from California. A funny story about this piece: I almost  regretted purchasing it. You see, I'm a bit of a thrifty shopper, and there a certain pieces I wouldn't dare spending so much money on. And one look at this top, and I thought I could find it somewhere cheaper. But the quality put into this is like no other! My plus size gals know what a struggle the arm area can be. This piece does not disappoint, with extra roomy arms, mostly due to the stretch elastic feature near the shoulders. The bell half-sleeve also provided some extra airiness, perfect for a warmer spring day.

The mixing part of my ensemble came easily with the horizontal stripes. A tip for you curvy girls who love stripes, the smaller the stripe, the better!
