The Who What Wear for Target Look Book is A Big Yawn

Who What Wear for Target lookbook
Maybe I'm sleep deprived but I just found the Who What Wear lookbook in my inbox and it's one big snooze-fest. I love Who What Wear co-founders Hillary Kerr and Katherine Power (I've followed them since I began blogging way back in the Stone Age) and I see they put a lot of thought into the collection - aiming to include the perfect trench, edgy moto jacket, and essential striped tee for their diehard fashionista fans - but the end result feels uninspired and lackluster. These aren't perfect basics nor are they eye-catching statement pieces. The prices, however, are certainly right, ranging from $14.99 to $49.99, and this is just the first of many installments to come. You can find the debut spring line at select Target stores and on Target.com starting Jan. 31 followed by new Who What Wear styles to be released the first week of every month. If you handpick the best pieces from each collection (such as the trench vest or mod blue moto jacket) I'm thinking this could turn into a very exciting new reason to shop at Target (as if we needed any more excuses). Browse all the looks below and tell me what you think.

Spot the Real: Max Studio Oxblood Tank Top

Fab find: Target burnout tank top
We all need going out tops, those better-than-basic tanks, tees and shirts that can be worn with jeans and heels for an instant dressy look. Here's a keeper: It's a velvet burnout tank top by Mossimo that comes in cabernet red or black and sells for just $22.99 at target.com. In case you needed extra persuasion, it looks a lot like a top by Max Studio which costs twice as much. How's that for validation?

Beauty Best: Burt's Bees New Lipstick Collection Available at Target

Burt's Bees new lipstick review
The holidays may have come and gone but I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when a beautiful package recently arrived for me from Burt's Bees. Inside the bright red box with a brown honeycomb lasercut sleeve were nestled all 14 of the good-for-you beauty company's new line of lipsticks. Much like a new box of crayons, I couldn't wait to dive in and test each of the 14 full coverage, satin-finish shades...at the same time, I decided to ration them out, testing one a day (anyone else hate ruining that perfect tip on a fresh lipstick?) You can easily treat yourself to these lipsticks, too, because they're just $8.99 each and available at Target.
