It's 9:35 am Sunday morning. I could still be in bed. I could still be cuddled up with my dog. I could be watching the local news. Let's face it, I could just be catching up on a lost hour of sleep because of Daylight Savings Time. But instead, I'm standing on aisle 16 at
Target, looking at pillaged shelves, for a product I don't even know that I want.
How did I get here? A BLOG.
Yes, that's right. Annie of
Poetic and Chic "tweeted" about
Liberty of London's new collection for
Target, which led me to her blog, and then eventually to Target. Annie had an inkling that the "collection" would be out early, so she hit 4 different Target stores yesterday!
Annie told me which local Target to go to, so I jumped into my hideous sweats, brushed my teeth, and was out the door. I don't even know much about
Liberty of London products, but after looking at Annie's blog, I couldn't help myself. There were some really cute things.
I purchased two of these vanilla-scented candles for $9.99 each. Pretty scents in a clear glass jars. Love the packaging...
Then two picture frames for $9.99 each that match the colors of my office...
Unfortunately, most everything was sold out. I was hoping to find some fun pillows (like the one above) for my office (that's the room that I go funky). I wasn't impressed by the clothing and some of the other items that were left. But certainly at these prices, you could find some cute things.
I checked Target's website and most of the items are already sold out. Wondering if they'll be restocking?
So, the next time you find yourself on aisle 16, you'll know the reason why. It was the blog you read...
The other day I was walking through Nordstrom (yes, had to buy socks) and stumbled upon this blush pink purse by Vince Camuto. Never heard of this line, but I thought the bag was quite pretty. Couldn't help myself...had to buy it. Buttery leather and the prettiest blush/neutral pink.
Dilemma...I just saw online that it comes in grey and other colors. I wear mainly black and white.
