My real-life friend Krista is taking a trip to the USA this weekend and plans to drop a little coin at Tar-jay. 
She asked me to peep it out and give her some ideas.
An excuse to shop? I’m so down. 
On the way home from work last night I spent 45 minutes perusing the store. I ended up leaving with more than five items (heh) but these are my faves, easy!
1. Mossimo sunnies
I love these! I usually just wear huge plastic ones that cover half my face. These are edgier and futuristic and make me feel like Lady GaGa
2. Mossimo skinny jeans
The fit on these is great! I don’t know about ya’ll, but I always have to get pants taken in at the waist because they are not cut to accommodate my glorious rump. I think they cost less than $30 too!
3. Earrings
I don’t think I need to say any more about these gems!
4. Mossimo pencil skirt
I’m sorry this is all wrinkled and furry
This skirt is absolutely gorgeous. Really lightweight, fun pockets, pretty pretty pretty. And goes really well with…
5. Argyle tights
So cute I have several pairs of tights and nylons from Target and I just love them!
I live about three miles from Target. Dangerous!
I hope this was fun for ya’ll
Do you love Target? Any favorite purchases lately?

Oh I love the argyle tights! I can totally see you rocking those with the pencil skirt.
I always say that Target makes my life better!

Love your purchases!

Target is amazing. From “Archer Farms” products to “mossimo” jeans, I absolutely LOVE that place

I think I need to go buy those tights. I love Target tights. They are perfect and inexpensive.

Target is my FAVORITE place to shop when I go home! I totally agree about the sunglasses, for sure! I also love perusing their book and movie sections

I always bought my sunglasses from Target. The Mossimo ones are great. I just happened to find a pair of Armanis at work that I couldn’t live without, and I shelled out the $80 for them. I think I’m gonna stick with the Target ones after this pair are done for… I break them too easily because I never end up putting them in my case… they just get tossed in my purse. I loooooooove Target. I live about 2 miles from one :O

Target has some awesome handbags, wallets, and belts
Right now it looks like they have some cute jackets and coats, too!

I LOVE TARGET. From their high quality Go International collaborations with designers to their really good convenience food department, I could spend all day browsing in their. Luckily for me and for my wallet, I have to borrow someone’s car to get over there and that doesn’t happen too often.

Ahh!!! I was just wondering where I can get some cheapo skinny jeans. Thanks girl!

I LOVE Target. I saw some gorgeous dresses there the other day. I LOVE their plain Ts and sweaters. Target is a love
LOL

Thanks SO much for the post, Erin!! I love the skirt and argyle tights….and the earrings. I took mine out so I could buy a pair, put’em in and “sneak” them across the border!!
I wanna try those skinny jeans on because I have the same bigger rump than waist thing happening, too. I think Lisa will dig all this stuff, too!!!
I giggle at all of your commenter who are 2 miles from a Target because I am 2 HOURS from one!!!

LOVE Tar-jay! Sometimes I like scoping out their Archer Farm’s foodie line because they have some fun coffees and nut butters.

ooh, i love the tights!
Can you post a picture of what you wear them with? I love patterned tights, but never know if I’m putting together a good outfit with them.

I get a lot from Target. Most of my jeans were 5 dollar ones off the men’s clearance rack
I’m not very picky, but I think they’re good quality ones, too

I want to go to Target! I think I went once…on a school trip to Minneapolis. I’m Canadian so we don’t have a Target!
But I live in NYC now!…except…I have a feeling there’s not a Target near me here.
One day I will go! Love the jeans and the tights.

I <3 Target but I be broke at the moment and avoid it like the plague.

LOVE tarjeyyyy. Cute earringssss!
Posted by Andrea (Off Her Cork) on November 13, 2009 at 8:15 am
I love Target more than is appropriate I think. I have a pair of bell bottom jeans that are my favorite ever that I bought from there. I also have two pairs of cargo pants that are fantastic also purchased from there. Love it!

Tar-jay! (I thought my strange family was the only one who said that… glad to see there are other kookoos in the house!)
Love it. I just moved to downtown san francisco, though, and the lack of car is crimpin’ my tarjay style. I haven’t been in ever.
Thanks for the review – something to look forward to at Christmas!

I love Target! I got a really cute winter coat there for $40.0 a few days ago.
Posted by Lindsay on November 13, 2009 at 10:32 am
LOVE Target! I actually haven’t been there in about a month. My spending there was getting way out of control so I needed a break! Love those earrings!
Posted by Jenny on November 13, 2009 at 10:50 am

Posted by Tina on November 13, 2009 at 11:25 am
Dang, I should check out those skinny jeans! I definitely can’t afford my loves of J. Crew and Anthro anymore
Posted by Kersten on November 13, 2009 at 12:34 pm
I love Target!! Got two gift cards burning a hole in my pocket… I love just going there to look around at stuff. Mucho danger living and working near two stores… I think it’s time I stopped in for some cute new clothes
Thanks for the reviews!! Love the sunnies!!
Posted by lowandbhold on November 13, 2009 at 1:35 pm
LOOOOVE those tights. I’m going to have to buy some ASAP! I’m moving to a new apartment that is about 1 mile from Target and I’ms scurred.
Posted by glidingcalm on November 13, 2009 at 8:52 pm
okay!

As a Christmas decoration obsessed person, just had a field day at Target last week.

Hmmm. I have never really shopped at Target. I can never bring myself to buy clothes at stores like that, I just assume they are of dodgy quality. Or sunglasses even – I have this need to drop $200+ on a pair, because obviously, the are better. Even though they’ll end up scratched or broken like every other pair I have. If I even go down to the States to shop, I’ll have to give Target a fair go.
