The other day I was flipping through a magazine and some bold black-and-white pieces caught my eye. Turns out it was a Target ad! I spent some time browsing on their website and they have so many chic black-and-white pieces in all sorts of patterns- stripes, polka dots, you name it. If you’re looking to incorporate some black and white into your wardrobe, look no further. And the best part? All of these items are under $35!
Tell me: How do you feel about the black-and-white trend? Which of these is your favorite?
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?

I can totally see you in that last dress- the peter pan collar! :)
Gorgeous finds! love everything black!
Thank you! Me too- if something comes in multiple colors, I’m always drawn to the black.
i been loving their black and white target trend (and the song to their commercial is so catchy!)
Oh, I didn’t know they had a commercial for this- I’ll have to find it!
Target has had some great new pieces lately! I don’t think people realize that a lot of the time their clothes can be of good quality. I like the blazers and the chevron striped skirt!

Since I don’t live close to a Target anymore and go so rarely, I kind of forgot about their clothing department. They definitely have some great stuff!
everything here is target? well color me impressed!
the white blazer, striped blazer, and chevron skirt are definitely favorites!
Yes, indeed! I was impressed too, especially by the variety and the price!
Love the chevron skirt! So cute
I think so too :)
Honestly, I wouldn’t have guessed these were Target pieces. They’re getting more and more on-trend! Loving everything. It’s funny, I always think I’m drawn to black and white, but other people tell me I wear a lot of color. It’s fascinating to me how differently I think of my style versus what people associate me with. (:
P.S. Love the changes you made to your design! I ‘m all about the open quality of the minimalist aesthetic, you know?
Thanks so much! I definitely know what you mean. I just felt the need to pare things down and make everything simple :)
Yes, I was so surprised by all the variety I found when I was putting this post together, and all at a great price point too. I’d be so curious to know how other people would describe my style because I’m not really sure how I would describe it myself!

Don’t be surprised if I call you soon about a Target “order” :D
