I hate to admit it, but I was one of the maniacs that stayed up until 4:30 AM for the release of the 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target collections a few weeks ago. When the packages came in the mail, I couldn’t decide whether the sleep deprivation was worth it.  But once this outfit came together, I felt a little bit better about my life.  I’m all about creating luxe looks for less.  And while the real 3.1 Phillip Lim is still on my wishlist, I’m glad I get to have a few fun pieces from the designer collab to call my own.  Did you score any pieces from the collection?  I would love to see how you styled them!

  2. Like you, I was super excited about the new Target collab, and Lin didn’t disappoint. Gorgeous skirt and bag (and smile)! Love how you’ve styled it.

    I just picked up two bags — the clothing quality didn’t impress me! I styled one of them on my blog today.

    Navy and leopard print are some of my favourite combos 🙂 Philip Lim is one of my favourite designers but too bad the collaboration isn’t available in Aussie Land…

  8. Great combination! I worry about wearing a leopard print shirt, but it looks really toned down with the navy blue skirt and black accessories. Very polished!

    Leopard and navy are a perfect pair for autumn! I have mixed feelings about the Target bags. Sure they look like the real thing, but how can it really compare? I like to save as much as I can, but when it comes to bags, I like to consider them investments.

  11. LOVE your outfit, I totally copied you this morning 🙂 Thank you so much for the inspiration, I love the skirt but haven’t quite known what to wear it with. Eager to see how else you wear it in the future so I can copy those outfits too 😉
