Target hosted a fall fashion event in N.Y.C. last night to celebrate their first shoppable short film, "Falling for You" starring Kirsten Bell. The actress arrived on the red carpet wearing head-to-toe Target, of course, a look taken straight out of the film. I have her plaid blazer and never would have thought to belt it. Gotta try that. If you like any or all the elements of Kirsten's Target ensemble, just follow the links below.

There's a new one-stop shop for all-things green* called Vine.com (nope, it's not a wine shop as I first suspected based on the name).

Vine.com features everything from paraben-free skincare and gluten-free snacks to reclaimed wood furnishings and solar-powered electronics. They've got lots of brands I recognize like Burt's Bees and Seventh Generation, as well as many new ones I'm looking forward to trying.

Right now shoppers on Vine.com will get $10 off their order and free shipping with an exclusive code when they spend $49 or more. Get it at www.vine.com/healthychild2012. Plus, Vine.com will give $10 to Healthy Child Healthy World, an organization which aims to empower parents to protect children from toxic chemicals through simple changes. I can get behind that.
