Liberty of London: A review

Soooooo, how many of you noticed the floral bunny decals on the door of the local Target this weekend??  I think the Liberty of London craze might have debuted early in some stores (I might have gotten at least one excited text about the items on Friday..see picture below!) but they were officially due out on Sunday.  And I was there.

When my mom and I arrived at the local Target on Sunday shortly after noon, the Liberty handbags were ALL gone…but no fear, there were plenty other things left:  scarves, dresses, candles, plates, stationery (and that is just the stuff I bought..ha..just kidding..) seriously something in every department (except little boys..darn!) I even heard there is a Liberty bicycle available at some Target stores.

Two things I adore.

This will make a great Easter dress with sweater and pearls.  And the “shirtdress” below is in the swimsuit section..I thought it was a coverup but the tag says shirt dress, I wore it with tights today like a tunic.  I love the print.  In fact I like the prints with black and not the pastel-y ones so much. {BTW, the Union Jacks in the background are always on display on my porch..I did not stage this…except for bringing my clothes outside and putting on a mannequin!}

I didn’t purchase any of the home decor items from Liberty (thought I may go back for some plates!) but they did have some cute storage bins and quilts and shams..great for a teen or dorm. And the little girl clothing was CUTE!

What do you think of the Liberty for Target products?  Any opinions out there? Have any of my readers ever been to Liberty in London?? How about Fortum & Mason, I have always wanted to visit there as well…I hear it is the quintessential London dept store…definitely on my list for next visit, whenever that may me!  Until, Target baby!

Off the rack drapery alert

Ballard just started carrying these (or I have missed them the 3-4 times a week I look there for clients) I love the simple look of solid panels with a different color block on bottom..in fact I often recommend (as do others, I imagine many designers are nodding their heads as they read this) that clients buy plain IKEA panels or something similar and add to the bottom to customize..now Ballard is doing it for you.. which is your fave color combo?? Do you like this look?  What is your secret weapon for windows???

I need to do a huge misc post this week..so many random things to talk about…more soon!
