Shopping @ Target

I have been a fan of Target for many years because they are continually improving, commissioning designer lines and offering a diverse selection of good products at a fair price. Just last week I picked up this denim jumper (in the kids sections) for under 20 bucks! I added a belt and some fun heels to give it a more grown up feel!

til tomorrow :}

Once in a while I stumble upon something really fresh ~ I like what he has to say.

. . . pondering picasso

Pablo Picasso has been one of my favorite artists  ever since I was a child. I distinctively remember the first time I saw his Petite Fleurs (below) when I was 7 years old and how wildly I reacted to it! In the countless art classes I took all through high school and college he was always my greatest inspiration ~ as he seemed to be able to work in every medium while maintaining his signature style. So recently when I came across this quote by him, "Good artists copy, great artists steal" it stuck in my mind, because I guess its kind of fun to wonder exactly what he meant by this. What's your interpretation?!

Layers

This "hot pink" Jean Paul Gaultier for Target slip dress has been hanging out in my closet for a while now, but after layering on top this little black sheer lace over~dress from F21, it felt brand new!
