Target Tuesdays: Autumn Florals and Cropped Jackets

Like every fashion maven, fall seems to be one of my favourite times of the year to layer rich colours and cropped jackets without the fear of being under dressed for the forthcoming winter weather. This is the time of year where your coat can still compliment your overall look of the day without being swallowed by a drab looking winter coat, swimming to your knees down (and trust me, I hate the cold, so my winter coats have to cover everything!)

As you know every Tuesday, I style an outfit from head to toe exclusively from Target for the trendy fashionista on a budget. Target has always been known for it’s fashion forward apparel so for me it was a natural fit to rise to the style challenge from week to week to create an outfit for my blog! Especially for those who live upstate NY like me where the big name stores are obsolete (I so wish we had….)

So today for Target Tuesday I focused on the burgundy berries and the mushroom grays to really pull this autumnal look together. The all-over printed skirt creates a rich and effortless look which can be paired with a cropped jacket for an edgier yet professional and polished look. Plus the neutral base colour in the skirt and the bag with the shoes really compliment the overall outfit without looking overly matchy in one hue. The functional pockets are a fashion bonus for my lipgloss and cell phone which I must have within reach- nothing is worse than fumbling through your purse to look for a small tube of gloss! I could easily wear this to work during the day and slip away to an evening event with this edgy look
