Style File: the $5 Target skirt

I know my local thrift stores get a ton of Target but I didn't know it was the same as what is being sold in stores. I paid less than $5 for the pleated faux leather trimmed skirt with tags still on it. It's currently for sale online for $22. A good deal at $20 and even better at $5!


The Aigner bag is making its debut. I think it goes perfectly with tweed. I want to take them both out to the countryside and stand by a horse. Only for a second though, I'm a little bit afraid of big animals.


My wolf earrings are making an appearance again. I had forgotten about them for a sec. They were buried under my jewelry clump. I wish I could find more pieces from the designer. I'm curious about what other animals are out there. Why wolf earrings? Is there a bear set too?


E is doing a really good job of keeping V occupied so she doesn't knock over my bootleg photography equipment.


The wolf eyes are glowing! I love it.
