READY, SET? TARGET STYLE

3 Stylists, 2 Challenges, 1 Show… Ready, set? Target Style!

Last night, Oct. 2, Miami hosted the official kick-off for the Target Style in-store styling competition! The challenge? Who can best style a classic white shirt?

Miami style mavens Maria Tettamanti (Wordy Girl), Annie Vazquez (The Fashion Poet) and Ginger Harris (Electric Blogarella) went head-to-head in the style-off.

The evening was hosted by Zanna Roberts Rassi, Marie Claire Senior Fashion Editor and emceed by Courtney Kornegay from the CourtWalk.

Univision host/style expert Rodner Figueroa, director /designer Vashtie Kola, blogger Daniela Ramirez and Zanna were the judges for the evening. All the looks were unique and fun and were rated from 1-10. The judges also gave some great feedback — giving the audience some very useful tips to style their personal looks with Target’s new Fall collection.

Winner for the evening? The witty, adorable and oh so stylish, Maria Tettamanti! Woo hoo!

Didn’t get a chance to make it? Don’t fret… If you live in the Chicago area, save the date for the 2nd style-off scheduled on Oct 9. Visiting LA on Oct 16? Great, pencil in the final style-off date and get ready for a night of live entertainment filled with complimentary beauty bars, music, refreshments, and more.

CROP CROP

PETER PILOTTO X TARGET crop top
AMERICAN APPAREL skirt
PRABAL GURUNG X TARGET sandals
KATE SPADE bag

I’ve been a fan of Target designer collaborations for quite a while now, and as you know, Peter Pilotto for Target was no exception. As usual, I did most of my shopping online, though I think I may have gone a little overboard on this one… Let’s just say you may be seeing quite a mix of Pilotto pieces. ;)

Unfortunately, some items didn’t quite fit as I hoped, (I’m actually having to get a few things tailored) though the crop top was a pleasant surprise. I believe it’s meant to be worn as a swim piece, but who says you have to follow rules? I paired this top with a mid-length pencil skirt to give it just the right amount of class with a hint of sass.

Did you buy anything? What was your favorite piece, and did it run true to size?

Ya han sido varias veces que he comprado de las colaboraciones de diseñadores de Target, y como ustedes saben, Peter Pilotto no fue la excepción. Como de costumbre, hice la mayor parte de mis compras en línea, aunque creo que esta vez me pase de cuentas… Solo digamos que en los proximos dias talves vean toda una mezcla de piezas Pilotto. ;)

Desafortunadamente, algunas piezas no me quedaron como esperaba, de hecho, algunas de mis compras todavia estan con mi costurera. Pero, este top fue una agradable sorpresa. Yo creo que está supuesto a ser usado como una pieza de baño, pero ¿quién dice que tenemos que seguir las reglas? Lo pareje con una falda lápiz de longitud media para darle la cantidad justa de clase con un toque de insolencia, jaja!

¿Y tu, compraste algo? ¿Cuál fue tu pieza favorita, y como te quedo?

IT IS HERE! PETER PILOTTO X TARGET

It’s been 4 months since Target called all fashionistas to save the date for their upcoming collaboration with London-based label, Peter Pilotto.

This collaboration is set to hit stores Sunday, Feb. 9 and finally, this past Monday night the brand released the entire look book. Here’s a look at a few of my favorite pieces from the collection, from dresses to skirts the entire collection screams fun!

The brand designed by the great duo, Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Voss is one of the most recognized brands from London. Known for their colorful, kaleidoscopic and textured prints, even Hollywood A listers like Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart, and Kerry Washington are fans.

The limited-edition collection retails from $14.99 to $79.99 — and features about 70 different pieces, including accessories, swimwear, and of course women’s apparel. Sorry fellas… :(

The good news? Target will be partnering with Net-a-Porter to sell “a curated assortment” of the collection. This will allow international customers to also get their hands on these coveted pieces. Will the partnership work? Well, if it does, maybe this will help those of us that stay up till wee hours of the night, only to find that awful “no longer available online” message on the Target website.

What pieces are you after? And do you think this Target collaboration will be anything like the 3.1 Phillip Lim sale that started releasing items piece-by-piece release through social media outlets?

3.1 PHILLIP LIM FOR TARGET

Target does it again, yet another collaboration to look forward to! Once again, you can expect long lines and perhaps even some craziness, but it’ll sure be worth it for designer Phillip Lim.

This exclusive fall collection will include items in women’s and men’s apparel and of course you cannot have a Phillip Lim collaboration without some amazing shoes, bags and accessories. The collection includes 100 versatile pieces that will range from $19.99 to $299.99 scheduled to be available in select stores and Target.com on September 15. The concept of this collection had a simple and classy approach; Lim focused on looks ranging from morning, noon to night with a color palette of neutral hues just in time for autumn.

“One of the reasons I wanted to collaborate with Target is because I felt that together we could create a collection that would inspire – one that is cool and chic, but still very accessible,” said Lim.

Oh and here’s a little extra information for you Flair fans:

Target will have NO quality restrictions this time. HUGE bummer, I know! Plan ahead and try to snag your items quick.
Handbags are NOT real leather. But then again, they are under $60 so…

Here are a few of my favorite items:

But, you’ll also get to meet three fabulous Miami bloggers who will be collaborating with us over the next few days: Kristin Brophy from FancyThingsBlog.com, Daniela Ramirez from NanysKlozet.com, and Maika Moulite from GlamLifeBlog.com. You can visit their blogs to see their take of Black is Back! (Don’t know them yet? Don’t worry, they’ll be properly introduced in an upcoming post; today you just get a glimpse. ;))

PS: I’ve been looking for the perfect LBD for what feels like ages, because regardless of the reason or season, black is always back! And every girl needs a good LBD. Thank you Zara!

Oh and if you haven’t noticed, I just got braces. Eeeek! Oh well, hopefully I’ll learn to style those accordingly too. This was my first time wearing lipstick since I got them. I’m trying very hard to not look like I’m 12…

FEMININITY WITH A BITE

It’s always hard to predict whether the next Target high-fashion designer collaboration will be a hit or miss. But this upcoming Prabal Gurung for Target collab seems to be the talk of town.

And just in time for your Valentines Day outfit, Gurung’s designs are inspired by a woman’s journey through love. “One idea I kept coming back to was the idea of love; whether it’s having it, pining for it, losing it, wanting it…” commented Gurung.

The line which includes, handbags, shoes and jewelry, launches Feb. 10 and will be available at all Target stores and online till Mar. 23 (while supplies last.) Prices will range from $19.99 to $199.99 for apparel and $12.99 to $39.99 for shoes and accesories. But if you’ve got your eye on something, I suggest you pick a store and get there bright and early. As these flowery, vibrant, and fun pieces are sure to fly!

Not sure you’re up for the commotion? I don’t blame you. My advice is that you get online and shop from the comfort of your home, unless you’re like me and you actually enjoy trying things on and the rush of the shopping craze.

Want to see more? You can view the entire look book here and let us know which one is your favorite look.

Siempre es difícil predecir si la proxima colaboración de diseñadores para Target será un éxito o una perdida. Pero esta próxima colaboración de Prabal Gurung parece que sera un hit!

Y justo a tiempo para el vestido que querias para el de día de San Valentín (dia de Amor y la Amistad), los diseños Gurung son inspirados por el amor. “Una idea que me volvía a venir era a la idea del amor, ya sea para tenerlo, suspirando por el, perderlo, quererlo …” comentó Gurung.

La línea que incluye, carteras, zapatos y joyas, lanza el 10 de febrero y estará disponible en todas las tiendas Target y via internet hasta 23 de marzo. Los precios estan desde $ 19.99 a $ 199.99 para prendas de vestir y $ 12.99 a $ 39.99 para zapatos y accesorios. Pero si tenes tu ojo en algo especifico, te sugiero que escogas una tienda y lleges muy temprano, porque estas piezas floreadas y vibrantes seguro que vuelan!

¿No sabes si estás lista para la conmoción? No te culpo! Mi consejo es que hagas tus comprars via internet, desde la comodidad de tu hogar, a menos que seas como yo y que realmente te guste ir de compras en medio de tanta locura.

FASHION FAVORITES

As we all know, Fridays at Flair Miami are completely dedicated to FASHION! I have to admit, reading, talking, and writing about fashion is probably one of my favorite things, and this ‘Fashion Friday’ I’ve decided to dedicate to some of my personal fashion favorites.

I’ve put together three outfits, one day time outfit, one work place outfit, and one night time outfit. I also set a budget for each outfit, the day time being least expensive and the night time being most expensive, ranging from $150 to $350.

Here are some of my fashion favorites for day, work, and night:

1. DAY TIME OUTFIT UNDER $150

Even though chilly days in Miami are unpredictable, I still can’t help but love chunky knit sweaters. Maybe it is because being able to wear one is something that rarely happens. I also love how gold and black look together, I think it gives such an edgy feel to the very preppy knit sweater. Oh, and lets not forget the amazing Tom Ford look alikes! What a steal!

H&M Cable Knit Jumper – $39
Old Navy Skinny Jeans – $30
Asos Flats – $39
Asos Stud Bracelet – $13
Asos Cat Eye Sunglasses – $18

Grand total: $139

2. WORK PLACE OUTFIT UNDER $250

What I love about this outfit is that two very popular fall trends have been incorporated – the oxblood and the spots. I think this would be a very fun/fashion forward office look (well, depending on where you work ;) ).

Grand Total: $240

3. NIGHT TIME OUTFIT UNDER $350.

One word – Metallics. Metallics are a great way to give an outfit the perfect edge with out over doing it. Since the main focus is obviously the dress, I chose more subtle accessories, and to top it off a great oxblood lipstick and nail polish for a little pop of color. I love this and I think it’s perfect for a night out. You will definitely make a statement in this outfit!

Topshop Metallic Seam Shift Dress – $110
Steve Madden Pumps – $165
Kirna Zabete for Target Clutch – $24
Illamasqua Nail and Lip set – $46

Grand Total: $345

So there you have it! Some of my personal fashion favorites. Which is your favorite outfit?
