Tracy Feith For Target

When I first saw the ads for the Tracy Feith for Target Collection, I was overwhelmed by the bright, fun colors, and summery cuteness of the clothes. However, when I went to the website to check out the clothes, there were really only two things that I could actually see myself spending money on. So, here are my picks from the collection, but keep in mind that I haven't actually seen any of these items, only seen pictures, so I can't attest to fit or fabric quality.


My first pick from the collection is the Strapless Dress-Ebony, which is $44.99 at Target.com. The nipped in waist and full skirt are sexy in an innocent way, and are perfect for accentuating curves. The dress also has some great detailing on the bodice which makes it look more expensive. This piece is a great staple for summer, and very versatile. With flats and a funky necklace it is perfect for day, or with heels and an updo it can easily be a great piece for night. Every woman needs a LBD...or two...or three...



My second (and last) pick from the collection is the Print Skirt-Crazy Daisy ($29.99). The high waist elongates the legs and is in style for the summer. The A-line skirt is feminine yet forgiving (good for those of us with bigger hips, or even for those with slim hips as it can create curves). I love the print for summer, although paired with the wrong shoes it could look a little grandma-ish. Make sure to keep the shoes sexy. High-heeled wedges or sexy strappy sandals are sure to keep this skirt looking young and hip.

One thing I do have to say about Target's designer lines is that, while they always sound so great and exciting, more often than not, they don't deliver. Most of the pieces are too trendy to really fall in love with, and the others are just so-so. Who would you like to see designing for Target? Let me know what you think!
