zac posen rocks target

like most people, i seem to find it impossible to get in and out of target without spending at least $75. that is going to be even harder now that zac posen is the featured designer for target. his collections are always youthful, vibrant, and glamorous. no exception here.

this denim snap-up chambray dress looked just ok in person. i'm wearing an xs (so true/smallish), and even though it fit pretty well, and i love any dress with big pockets, i wasn't completely sold. plus, the bottom hem has this thin drawstring that can actually turn this dress into a functional parachute. only kind of kidding. for 40 bucks. meeh.

this exuberant brocade print is beautifully cut, but runs big (i am wearing a size 3, and i'm usually a 5-7).
i thought the big bow, the pleated waist and um, the pockets (i lurve me some pockets!), were adorable.

however, was NOT crazy about the zipper in front over your left bosom. handy for breastfeeding? escape route/relief for those more well-endowed? saw some complaints about that on the target review--funny enough, they're out of stock online.

just couldn't see myself wearing it on more than one occasion--like at a garden party with the queen of england ('course, properly accompanied by a prim cardi and a stiff pillbox hat). about 75 bucks.



WEIRD. i fit the size 3 dress, but had to go up to the size 7 skirt. the brocade is still beautiful, and of course this is more useable than the full-on dress.
then again, it also tends to pouch out, seeming to imply an early but definite pregnancy situation.


oooh! oooh!! to me, this was the most exciting piece. i know not everyone wants to wear a red leather jacket, and surely not everyone wants to pay $200 for said red leather jacket.

but what if that rlj was designed by a certain zac posen, fit like a dream, and made someone feel like a glam rockin' biker chick?

well, here's to target (cheers! clink!) , once again proving that they're waaay better than walmart. if there was ever any doubt, zac posen's mere presence has now banished all.
