Target's New Go! International Collection Goes In House

Target's staying closer to home for their next Go! International collection... like, really close to home. The next collection, which launches in February, is a private, in-house collection (not a bad move -- it's probably cheaper than reeling in a known entity like Hayden-Harnett or bigger names like Alexander McQueen or Anya Hindmarch), and it's not bad. I don't love they way they styled the second looks, but on their own, the pieces are fun and have potential. A few picks:

Multi-Color Bandage Dress $44.99

Zipper Dress in Blue $34.99 -- PLEASE, withOUT the ripped rights! Do it RIGHT -- with some nice black tights and heels!

Cutout Shoulder Dress in Black/Gray $44.99


Printed Shift Dress in Black/White $34.99

+ And speaking of Target, Fucked In Park Slope's insider investigation of Brooklyn's Atlantic Center Target is COMPLETELY true and on point. It's a total pit, unfortunately. Stay tuned -- we may be getting more insider reports from that very same, sad-sack Targs. On the opposite end of the coin though, Future Lint -- she won the Harajuku Lovers coffret set! -- knows about an amazing Target-Salvation Army pig-elephant hybrid! AMAZING!

Rain, Rain, COME AGAIN SO I CAN WEAR THESE CUTE CHOOKA BOOTS!

($50.95, Chooka, Karmaloop.com)

Love these buffalo check Chooka rain boots, and you don't see lace-up rain boots often, so esstra snaps for that! PLUS, you can get 30% off with promo code FRESCA. Only prob, for me anyway, is that they don't have size 8. Wah. Size 9 seems too biggie biggie biggie. Lotsa sizes (but for mora dollars) at Endless though.

The competition is open to students, graduates and anyone with a brand-new label that is not already established. Designers (both menswear and womenswear) are invited to submit their ideas; this should be in the form of a series of detailed sketches or photographs which must be original, directional designs for Spring/Summer 2009.

The closing date for initial entries is 31st January 2009 so you'd better start sketching!

All ten finalists will be featured on the fashion156 and Start London websites with readers invited to judge and vote for their favourite design. The winning designs will be sold in store and online in March.

Victoria are geanta noua

Victoria Beckham a adaugat o noua piesa in colectia ei de genti Hermes - o Hermes Himalayan Birkin, din piele de crocodil si incrustata cu diamante. Probabil un alt cadou de Craciun de la David ca si cea mov.
Bratara cu perle e super.

UPDATE:
Asa cum banuiam, geanta Hermes Himalayan Birkin a Victoriei este un cadou de Craciun de la David, este unul din cele trei exemplare realizate pana acum si costa 80 000 de lire sterline, adica aproape cat salariul saptamanal al lui Becks la AC Milan.
Lista de asteptare pentru o geanta ca a lui Posh este inchisa, iar cei care s-au inscris deja mai au de asteptat 4 ani pana vor intra in posesia ei.

Celebrity style: Givenchy boots

Anul trecut cizmele gladiator din colectia Givenchy de primavara-vara au fost preferatele celebritatilor de la Hollywood: Rihanna, Mary Kate Olsen, Nicole de la Pussycat Dolls, Cassie sau Tyra Banks, care au purtat varianta crem, dar si de la noi. Cele doua dive, Lory si Mihaela, care le poarta in cel mai recent numar al revistei Esquire au fost si ele fericitele posesoare ale cizmelor must-have in 2008.
Cizmele "it" ale lui 2008, pret aproximativ 1700$

An Insider Investigation Into Why The Atlantic Center Target Blows So Hard!

Ask just about any red-blooded American woman about Target, and just the mere mention of, like, one syllable of Target, or simply, 'Jay, spins most laydayze into a frenzy usually (thought stereotypically) associated with weddings (you know, because me and Mary-Kate over here are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO just like Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson over our engagements -- BTW, MK is engaged!), kitties (... okay, guilty!), or bowls full of comfort food (EXTREMELY guilty).

Now we here at the Binge fucking LOVE us some Bullseye (the store, not the sauce, to which we're pretty much indifferent if not completely revolted by) and post about it so much that I cannot FUCKING BELIEVE we're not on some sort of commission schedule. But there is ONE exception to the rule, and that is the Target at the Atlantic Center in downtown Brooklyn. That Target is an absolute horrid shitstorm, and Fucked In Park Slope blog knows it/ proves it/ owns it. I mean, the sad, barren shelves alone. Weep!

Observe.
