I go in for hand wash and leave poor.
I don't know how this happens.
I plead the fifth.
I don't even know why I go through the clothes because that dang Converse line gets me every time.
How can you turn this down for $29.99??
Who didn't go a little crazy with the Liberty of London line?
I have to admit that I was too late for that one.
I am very excited that a John Derian line is coming to Target on September 5.
Please.
All I really want are the mugs....keep your hands off!
I didn't discover John Derian until my girl's trip to Savannah a few years ago.
I love his work and will now be excited to get his style WAY cheap at Target.
I love you Target....I really do.
My wallet...not so much.











So where have I been at Target?...shopping for staples and school supplies and not realizing that all of these designers play at Target, which seems to be really living up to it's french-i-fied name, say Tar-ja with me! Thanks for the heads up :)

Those mugs are VERY cute!
Thank heavens the nearest Target to me is 42 miles away!!

Hi - ohhh it's so unfair we don't get Target here in the UK - I did get some of the Liberty of London stuff though as Liberty did it online! Target must be something special as so many bloggers refer to it. Not fair! Lou x

To the above poster- I bought the number plates online.
I agree, I am counting the days until this line is available. I am gaga for anything with a silhouette. Thanks for pointing out that dress! I can picture it already with my wide brown belt and brown boots.

Oh you are too funny... I too must stay away from Target. I always say you can never walk out of that store under $50.00, even if you just go in for one item...

I agree...Target is DANGEROUS!! Thanks for the heads-up on the new line. Looks like I'm about out of laundry detergent...better go :)

Oh Target... you are going to make me poor! I have always been a fan of John Derian. There is a boutique near where I live and they have his work. I love it all, but can't afford it. Target will be a nice compromise!
Posted by: Sabrina | August 27, 2010 at 08:23 AM
that dress is totally cute - however - not so much for me :) but on you! perfect!!!
Posted by: Anne Marie | August 27, 2010 at 09:24 AM
Yes Target is extremely dangerous! I'll be checking out the new line with ya that is if anything is still available by the time I get there ;)

They know be by name at the Target in Parker - I'm the same way....I can NEVER go in without spending atleast $100 on random things! I always joke that I should take out stock there as an attempt to get back some of the crazy amount of money that I've spent there! I bought some cute black and white number plates there the other day - $2.99 each!!!!!!! I couldn't resist!

I saw that his line was going to be there (thanks to your Lonny mag link; )! I am counting down the days.....I want his cute lil square flatware appetizer plate - its only $1.99! Sheesh, if it werent for Target and Costco I would have LOADS of moola!!!
Speaking of counting down the days - when is your Winter line arriving?! :D
Happy Friday Girl!

Love Target and Home Goods! They get lots of my money! Do you have a Home Goods store? I have to stay away or they could get all of my money!

I know! Target is amazing:) Have a great weekend friend.

I have Sept. 5 circled on my calendar because of the John Derian line! I don't want to miss out :)
Posted by: Sharon | August 27, 2010 at 10:06 AM
I swear I live in Target, I should buy shares in that place. Love their stuff.
Posted by: Kathryn | August 27, 2010 at 11:21 AM
Oh my goodness...I can totally relate!! I practically live at Target, I'm there so much:) Ka-ching!
Posted by: Leah C | August 27, 2010 at 12:18 PM
the dress is on sale today for $20!!! i, too, love the converse line and John Derian. i just got home from lovely, wonderful Target :) gilt.com had target designers (limited time and merchandise) for sale a few days ago...but i couldn't rationalize shipping costs just because i am impatient for sept 5.
Posted by: Cathy | August 27, 2010 at 12:37 PM
I snatched up those numbered app plates this weekend too (by HOME), I knew they wouldn't last. Bought some of the JD plates online at the Gilt preview. Totally heart Target.
Posted by: Christy | August 27, 2010 at 12:51 PM
So true...I have the same love for Target...I too go in for ONE thing and come out with more like 100 things! super excited for some of the new lines!
Blessings!

I know what you mean. . .my husband said, just today, maybe we should just move in to Target, since we go so often! They do have such wonderful and fun things!
Posted by: Holly | August 27, 2010 at 06:16 PM
Oh how I wish that Target was in Canada! Last trip to the US I think I left about 300.00 there in less than an hour!
