Converse One Star for Target Spring 2011 Lookbook




Another solid brand you'll find at Target season after season is Converse One Star, and their Spring 2011 lookbook has dozens of great casual outfit ideas and styling inspiration. For spring, Converse showcases their sportswear for women in a neutral palette with a few soft florals and plaid prints mixed in. There's denim, breezy tops, shorts, dresses, lightweight sweaters and swimwear, plus accessories like leather-look handbags and of course, footwear. Nothing's over $50 and you can shop this collection in stores now and online at Target.com. My favorite looks include the white blazer/plaid shirt combo, and the purple ruffle top with dolman sleeve cardigan. While I love the look of Converse's classic sneaks, they don't agree with my fussy feet, so I prefer to envision these looks with cool oxfords, ballet flats or sandals.
