I mainly took photo’s of a few of the items I saw at my local Target. I’m still hoping to buy are the ‘Boom’ scarf and ‘Boom’ Sweater and maybe the grey women’s sweatpants. I also liked the men’s wool cardigans which I tried on. My Target has a lot of items still left, only saw two of the bags as seen in the below photo.

Things I’ve spotted in Target
I’ve been shopping a lot more frequently in Target the past few weeks as I’m off on a trip to Panama soon.
So been on the hunt for spring/summer clothes and have done a fair bit of trying on … took a few photo’s of new things I’ve seen in store yesterday and over last weekend, once I spot a new item in Target I’m on it and my new thing is actually trying clothes on! I brought a few of the items below and some basics from Old Navy which I will blog in my next post, enjoy!
Green floaty skirt- around $24.99 – with a paperbag waist, would need to be worn higher on the waist or with a tight fitting tank/ camisole.
Mint coloured shorts, they also came in a light pink/ blush colour- $19.99 a bargain! Might go back and get these!
Tribal Romper shorts- around $22.99, this also came in a pink patterned style.
Striped high/low dress- again around $22.99- the neck detail was really cool, has a cut out on the back top section. Forgot to try this on.
Neon sandals- these also came in yellow and other patterns, but these stood out to me – around $15.,99
Grey sweater dress with neon trim and drawstring- this was in the sale around $19. Quite nice fit and would go well with or without leggings and flips flops or canvas flat.
Stripe sweater with bright coral stripes- really cute, oversized ssweatshirt with lace detail, around $15 in the sale, I brought this!! I got some military green linen shorts from Old Navy and this went well with it.
Leopard shirt dress with elastic waist and belt- really nice fit and easy to throw on with some sandals, around $27.99 and I brought this one
Peach knit jumper- around $21.99, really light weight knit, to throw on over a tank or plain tee.
Target -SpringTrend Finds
Today I nipped into Target and we decided to have a browse at the clothing, since last week when they seemed to be changing over their ranges for Spring/ Summer… they have gotten in some great items! I actually am seeing trends that I see on ASOS for example the polka dot and printed denim, Camo pants/ jackets, sweaters with prints, neon, bralets, matching tops and bottoms in same print, lots of oversized sweatshirts, digitial print florals,.
Few photo’s of things I picked out and liked, ended up not buying anything as I’m on a spending ‘ban’ of clothes, even though I have my eye on some key items!
Bralet top which had a matching short pleated skirt – Merona
Camo stretch jeans/ pants- seen these a couple of times, but they feel nice to touch and have a ‘flip side’ reversible so are green and camo, two outfits in one pair.
Studded collar sheer blouse- these have been done by Topshop, Asos, Miss Selfridge, Primak in the UK- you name the store and they have been done over there.. finally they have some in Target, this was $22.99 and also came in a bright blue. The fabric wasn’t too brilliant though.
Camo Jacket- $34.99- a item I really want to get though the trend is only surfacing here in the States in mainstream shops.
I already have had a couple camo print coats over the past few years, but want one similar to this, it’s a good weight for spring and seems sturdy enough, but still on the search. I’m not to fond of the drawstring waist.
Neon cropped jacket- Mossimo
Coral bag- very cute, think this was Merona- nice size and has a strap, was more coral in person.
Merona- Ostritch texture bags, loved all of these, esp the navy with brown trim, look like brilliant quality. Prices ranged from 15.99- 24.99 The wallets were really nice also.
American flag backpack, so cute! $29.99. I just got a camo version for $8.98 a few weeks back, so would either wait to see if these go on sale. They also had some aztec, leopard print versions too.
Lastly I saw these patterned/ fluffy dog bed covers were on sale for $8.48 and they had two prints on sale, were $18.99.
