Spot the Real: Marc by Marc Jacobs Wedge Boot

Marc by Marc Jacobs' wedge boots cost $350 but when you consider the fact that you're getting 4 shoe trends (menswear-inspired, lace-up ankle boots, wedges and desert boots) in one perfect shoe, the price seems almost reasonable! See if you can spot the designer pair, then click on either image to check your guess.

Temple St. Clair for Target: What Say You?


Temple St. Clair for Target: What Say You?

I made the trek to Target #2 this morning in hopes of finding their newly launched Temple St. Clair jewelry collection and this time, I was successful. Well, somewhat successful…I actually had to ask a sales clerk at the jewelry counter if they had the collection, at which point she was kind enough to pull out the box for me containing all the jewelry for me to browse under her watchful gaze. Hence, no photos, save for the heart stone ring which I purchased for $30. Everything looked absolutely lovely in person—rings, necklaces and earrings ranging from $29.99 to $49.99—but I still have a hard time justifying spending $50 on anything let alone a necklace from Tar-jay. Nonetheless I'm really pleased with my purchase and I just hope it stays looking this shiny and pretty for a while.

Have you seen the collection in person? What did you buy?
