A Marriage Made In Heaven.

Sunday is a special day marked on my calendar because two of my favorite brands are coming together.

Calypso St. Barth has designed a line of clothing and home goods that will be sold in Target stores starting May 1. Items are all below $79.99– quite a change from their usual price point. These babies will sell out quickly, so get them while they are hot!

On Acid.

While I am not particularly a fan of the neon trend, one color I can stand behind is acid yellow.

Years after SJP rocked this dress, I still can’t get it out of my head.

And how pretty and feminine does Rhianna look in this chiffon-rufffled dream?

Like it or not, acid yellow well be around to stay this summer. So if you decide to hop on the band wagon, here are a few pieces to tickle your fancy:

A HomeGoods HomeRun.

Last week I stopped by my HomeGoods, which coincidentally is only a few miles from my house. I spotted some great bargains, and if I wasn’t on double secret probation from our AMX bill last month, many of these items would have come home with me.
