Dress Of The Day: Isaac Mizrahi Raschel Knit Tunic Dress
Tuesday, June 10th, 2008Over the next few days, leading up to the first day of summer, we will feature some of our favorite summer dress picks to give you a jump start on some of the season’s newest and truest trends.
This Isaac Mizrahi Raschel Knit Tunic Dress, available at Target, definitely brings back 60s style this summer. If you recognize this dress, that’s probably because you have seen it in your own closet or your mother’s closet about 40 years ago. It’s a great remake of the classic, very short black mod dress. You might also recognize it on a certain classic 60s model and icon, Twiggy. Wear it bare, or with a pair of skinny jeans, and be sure to accessorize with loads of colorful bangles and earrings. It is made of a loose fitting raschel knit lace, with a high neck, 3/4 length sleeves and a very brief hemline. Skinny legs sold separately.

Cynthia Rowley Market Tote
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008
Beach season means time for a new beach bag because I don’t know about you, but I tend to lug a lot of stuff to the beach with me - my iPod, beach read, lotion, wallet, cell phone, towels, sunglasses, magazines and basically whatever else will keep me entertained as I catch rays. The Cynthia Rowley Market Tote from Target just screams summer and spending time by the water. It has short white straps with white drawstrings on the side. The bag has thick green and blue stripes and a small sailboat hanging from the straps. It is the perfect size to fit all your outdoor beach needs.

The Jovovich-Hawk collection for Target is one to check out. The designers, actress Milla Jovovich and good friend Carmen Hawk give us some great bohemian chic options for the spring. The dresses are feminine and flirty like this Smocked Terry Dress in Heather Grey. It has a gathered smocked top with a ruffle under the chest and at the bottom of the dress creating almost two layers to the look. This can be a casual dress you can wear for a day at the beach or you can pair it with some cute wedges or heels to make it work for a going out look.

Melton Wool Cropped Jacket
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007
I have always loved Target to find great housewares pieces for really affordable prices. When it came to clothes, I really never spent too much time looking. Now it seems like Target is really upping the ante by featuring new designer lines and more clothing options. They are now featuring International Flights of Fashion which are exclusive limited time selections from rising fashion designers. Currently, up until November 17th, the featured design line is Alice Temperley whose fashion is said to be inspired by the English countryside. It is very old Victorian fashion with lots of lace and ruffle accents. The Melton Wool Cropped Jacket is a classic style with very posh detailing and lines. The cropped jacket has elbow length bell sleeves that flare out from the arm, a broad collar, and 4 metal buttons with ruffle trim lining enclosures. The jacket scoops upwards in the front and since it is short, it works great to layer under a longer tank or sweater.

Salad Spinner
Friday, September 7th, 2007
If you don’t have a Salad Spinner already, you really don’t know what you are missing. I can’t live without mine. I used to rinse my lettuce in a strainer and then sometimes get the extra moisture out with a clean towel or a paper towel but it never really got all the wetness out and certain kinds of lettuce really hold onto water like a sponge. Then it becomes soggy before even adding the toppings or the dressing. Sogginess for me is the kiss of death. The Salad Spinner is awesome. You put the lettuce in the basket and rinse it with water. You then put the basket into the plastic bowel, add the lid and press the handle down to start the spinning motion which releases all of the moisture from the lettuce. After a few spins your lettuce is clean, crisp and ready to be eaten.

Michael Graves Design Stainless Steel Bar Accessory Set
Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007
I am not lucky enough to have a bar in my apartment so I resort to a wine and liquor rack and storing the bar accessories in cabinets until they are needed. The Michael Graves Design Stainless Steel Bar Accessory Set is great if you are like me and don’t have the luxury to store all your drinking equipment behind a bar. It is a wood caddy that comes with holders and all your mixing necessities including a cocktail strainer, jigger, stirrer, bottle opener, bar knife, and ice scooper. This is a really great space-saving product that you can take out when you have people over for a party or when you just need to make yourself a cocktail to relax after a long night of work.
