Lately the weather is lending itself to light layers and cozy knits, and right now my Chaps cable-knit sweater has become an absolute wardrobe staple. I've been wearing mine with skinny jeans and printed button-downs for a preppy-with-a twist vibe but they'd pair equally well with skirts or layered over dresses for a more feminine feel. The perfect blend of soft and warm, these cotton-blend sweaters are ideal for those with sensitive skin (totally not itchy, which I love). Chaps sent me a cable-knit sweater in emerald green and another in dark plum, two rich colors I'm loving for fall. Now I want one in ivory, black and pink (how cute would it look paired with a leopard pencil skirt and sequin clutch?!) The price on these sweaters is just right, too, only $34.99 at Kohl's (down from $50) which means you can stock up!

Shop my exact sweater and more great Chaps sweater styles at Kohls.com.

{What I'm Wearing: Chaps cable-knit sweater; L.L. Bean button down shirt; Rebecca Minkoff bag c/o T.J. Maxx giftcard; JewelMint bracelets; BaubleBar earrings; Tinseltown via Kohl's polka-dot jeans; Target leopard flats}

Target's next designer collab will be with designer Prabal Gurung, according to breaking news from Target's blog A Bullseye View. I was two years too early, but let it be known that I did predict this collab back in 2010 (here). Prabal Gurung is also one of the 24 designers participating in this year's Target x Neiman Marcus holiday gift extravaganza collection, launching December. 1st.

The Prabal Gurung for Target collection will feature a limited-edition line of women's ready-to-wear and accessories, including handbags, shoes and jewelry available Feb. 10, 2013 at all Target stores and on Target.com.

Expect "impeccable tailoring and feminine silhouettes— [f]rom refined dresses and blazers to jewelry and sleek shoes in striking prints and palettes." Prices will range from $12.99 to $199.99 for the nearly 80 item collab.

After his collection last spring, the first thing I think of when I hear the name Prabal Gurung is kaleidoscopic florals, so the first look from the Target line (shown above) is seriously exciting. What do you think?!
