Designer Alexander Wang took to his Instagram account to share a photo of Rihanna wearing two pieces from his upcoming collaboration with H&M. The line doesn't hit stores until November 6th, but that didn't stop Riri from rocking her 'Wang'-adorned leggings and long-sleeve crop top combo while out and about New York City, where she's been hanging out for Fashion Week. This look clues us in to the fact that Alexander Wang for H&M will be sportswear-inspired, which is undoubtedly one of the hottest trends right now, along with normcore (I think the sneakers overlap both trends). It's not a look everyone can pull off and I can't say this particular outfit has me excited to see more, but that's just me. How about you, is the excitement building for the #ALEXANDERWANGxHM collaboration?

Yesterday evening, Target hosted a launch event for the highly anticipated collaboration with 2014's CFDA Womenswear Designer of the year, Joseph Altuzarra. The Altuzarra for Target collection features about fifty pieces, all priced between $17.99 and $89.99, and will be available exclusively at Target, in select stores and online, and at Net-A-Porter, on Sunday, September 14. The collection includes an array of dressier pieces, appropriate for work, play and formal events; pencil skirts, blouses, pants, sweaters, dresses, blazers and trench coats with embellished details, prints and rich texture. It also includes fabulous accessories like statement belts and shoes. These pieces can also be dressed down and easily incorporated into any wardrobe. Overall, the Altuzarra for Target collection absolutely rings true to Mr. Altuzarra's sultry and sophisticated design aesthetic, and at its price point, is sure to please, and certainly not one to be overlooked.

I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a few of my favorites from the collection; the black sweater with gorgeous gold crane appliques at the shoulders, the printed orchid sweatshirt, the simple snake print tee and the classic cropped black tuxedo pants. Which pieces are your favorites?
