Altuzarra for Target - EVERYTHING UNDER $100!

by Matthew T. Murray


Joseph Altuzarra is the newly-crowned design darling of the New York fashion circuit. His eponymous brand Altuzarra was 'born out of the desire to make the sophisticated modern woman feel seductive, strong and confident.' His spring 2015 collection was a tour de force of subverted glamour: adding sex appeal to a picnic print (see my Instagram!), sending down a slew of slender beauties in vixen looks worthy of a fetish fantasy not even Anastasia could handle, and finding that infallible interplay between provocative and pretty. And while his designs cost a pretty penny (most clock-in at around 2 grand!), now is your chance to snap 'em up on the cheap thanks to this phenomenally phenomenal Target collab of phenomic proportions (phenomic is not a word but for the purposes of exaggerative exaggerations, it will be henceforth!).

The Altuzarra Target collection has a haute emphasis on sprucing up your work wardrobe so you can be the belle of the ball from 9 to 5. But because I kind of am obsessed with playing with fire in terms of styling, I concocted this look envisioning a woman on-the-go darting from cubicle to cocktails. And at $35 for the skirt, buy it now or regret it later! Shop this Outfix below and note how everything rings-in for under $100!

That 70s Show

by Matthew T. Murray


Fashion carries a whiff of Haight-Ashbury insouciance this season. Feel free to binge-watch That 70s Show for a crash course in hippie-dippie style. Fashion is at its most topsy-turvy point – in years past, there was one definitive trend of the season that dominated the hearts and closets of the fashion-conscious. This season, the trends are a bipolar swirl of personality – like a jetlagged Real Housewife on an acid trip. Or Kenya Moore. (Sidenote: love you more than life itself Kenya!) It's a time that can be positively jarring or a time for you to take full advantage and experiment with the unknown.

In this case, fur chubbies, carefree wide-leg jeans,  tarnished suede bags, a bohemian touch here, a borderline-hippie moment there, are the unknown. They are uncharted territory. It can be a bit intimidating so feel free to isolate bits and bobbles from this trend to mix-in seamlessly with your existing wardrobe. The most important tidbit to keep in mind when tackling a trend is whether it will pair pretty with your personal style.  

Coat by Zara, $129  /  Jeans by Free People, $128  /  Sunglasses by Warby Parker x Karlie Kloss, $145  /  Bag by Stuart Weitzman, $598  /  Boots by Gucci, $1450 (similar for under $300 here)
