breezy target. by orange

i heart Target. who doesn't? especially when you can find a fun shirt, accessory or purse for a fantastic price! well one of my most recent trips to target brought home a few goodies. which i of course displayed at work this week. here's what i love about some of the finds:

- sunglasses: already lost my NYC sunglasses :(. these provide me some solice.
- shirt: fun coral color (works for the pale peeps) and a nice breezy, light feeling to it

target sunglasses (couldn't find exact ones...but close)

target merona tunic

lucky jeans

michael kors silver flats

ann taylor rhinestone necklace (i was surprised too!  ann taylor!  who knew?)

So with NYC right around the corner I've been wondering - what in the world am I going to pack?! There are a couple factors to consider:

1) the days will probably be slightly warm, 60-70 degrees, however then it cools down at night - layering?

2) as I've n

ever been to NYC before we'll be running around al ot - comfy shoes a must, however must still be stylish

3) i have heard that NYC can be a bit more dressy than Seattle, what a surprise...(kidding). - bring dresses to go out at night?

4) NYC is the fashion capital of the US - i've gotta get my inner fashionista out.

5) with running around so much - need to bring a purse that is convenient to carry/haul over my shoulder

6) I'm there for 7 days, 6 nights, a decent chunk of time - need to pack efficiently!

So here are some of my thoughts...

perfect blazer for layering up - it's wool, from jcrew and is a very bright yellow spring color.

necklaces are always a fun and easy way to spruce up an outfit - maybe I'll bring some of my more funky jewelry to add some juice to a casual all day walking outfit.

from the Erickson Beamon collection for Target

also from my favorite - Target - the Maybelle ballet skimmer. extremely comfy (which I was suprised by) but still cute.

i love me some splendid tops. they are always so soft and keep their shape! i have a few, kind of similar to this striped top, except long sleeve. i think they will be another good shirt to bring for layering. and mine are in bright colors - pink, orange and purple. yes, once i find a basic shirt i love - i buy a few.

who knows? i may have a run in with sexy back justin as he is spending a lot of time in NYC these days...i don't want to be caught without my william rast jeans! i have a pair that i shortened (as i'm not a 5'10 model) so they'll be perfect with flats.

i don't own this exact bag, but one very similar by hobo international. a yellow - spring (or fall) bag that has a long strap so it can fit right over your shoulder for optimum "both hands free for shopping" :)

nyc - here i come!
