Drunken Pirate Shopping
Yes, July is the month for sales, as evidenced by my credit cards. (BTW, today is the last day for Neimans in case any of you needed to get out there and spend money on pretty things. I'm not going to Cusp to check out their last day. Really. Nope. Complete self-control. Absolute. Self...lets talk about something else...) July is also the month of Libertine.
I've talked about Go International before. (Vaguely rambling and unintellegible, but talked nonetheless.) Some fashionable genius at Target came up with the brilliant idea of collaborating with different designers ever 2 - 3 months. I adore this line and look forward to each new installment.
Go International is genius because:
1. We get top designers at bottom prices;
2. There is no shopping fatigue because they're constantly rotating stock;
3. You're getting different people and styles into the store; and
4. The markdowns on the preceeding designer are *amazing* (And I'm not just saying that because I got the cutest little Patrick Robinson dress for $5. Nope! Not me. Nothing to see here.)
Sunday launched Libertine. (The clouds parted, angels sang and there were rainbows for all to behold.) Really, any line that features whales and skulls & crossbones is so on my list. And it fits! doG bless you for not just designing for women with the bodies of 13 year old boys. Some of the other designers, and I'm not naming names here, made their designs so upmarket and tiny that really only Victoria Beckham would have fit into them. This was evidenced by the sale racks even I didn't touch. But I digress. Libertine is fantastic. The pieces I've worn so far have gotten rave reviews and I can't see what's next on the delivery schedule.
