Memorial Day is just around the corner! You may have plans to cookout, be on the water, or take the long weekend to go somewhere fun. Wherever you are, it’s the day to be outside. Not only is it the unofficial start of summer, but it gives you a good excuse to break out all of your favorite warm weather pieces. It’s also a day to be patriotic and wear your favorite rendition of red, white, and blue. If you’re wanting to do some shopping for the occassion, the new Vineyard Vines for Target collaboration is just for you.
Although it doesn’t officially launch until tomorrow, both in stores and online, I had the opportunity to sneak a peak at a pop-up event here in NYC. I was completely blown away by the collection! The quality and designs look like they come straight out of the Vineyard Vines catalog and I would never have guessed they were from Target. The tags and amazing prices were the only clues that gave it away. I honestly wasn’t planning on buying anything, but I left with a full shopping bag and huge smile on my face.
My favorite item, hands down, has to be this striped romper. The material was this soft pima cotton that would be perfect to lounge around in. Slip on over a bathing suit and it makes for a great beach coverup. What I’m trying to say is that the possibilites are endless and, at a whopping $30, you get a lot of bang for your buck. For an outfit that would be perfect for running errands or casual drinks with friends, I layered an oversized navy cardigan that I’ve had in my closet forever. This sweater from Nordstrom is almost identical and on sale!
Also among my spoils from the pop-up shop were this navy and white nautical midi dress and this simply, off-the-shoulder top. I simply love any midi dress and this pick is no exception. The ruffled neckline gives it a slight dressy feel, but the grosgrain ribbon belt keeps it fun and playful. You can never have too many white blouses, they go with just about everything under the sun. The VVxTarget version is the kind that will work with your favorite pair of jeans one day and tucked into a ballroom skirt the next.
I think the best part of the Vineyard Vines for Target collection is that it’s very size inclusive. If you liked any of my pieces, or anything from the collaboration, it’s avaible up to a size 3XL. You will also find pieces for men, girls, boys, pets, and the home. They have made this a family affair and I can’t wait to shop more again tomorrow. To get a sneak peek on what they’re offering, and bookmark your favorites, be sure to shop along below.
Love from NYC,
