WHAT I BROUGHT for $100 at TARGET

It’s time! Target Time, lol! Seems to be Target time at least once a week for me! Even better I’d when 5 of us, the Blonde Squad goes to Target! Even better if we all could’ve gone together! LOL!

Jill had a wonderful idea for a post: what we got at Target for $100! Just like I always love seeing what people buy on Amazon. I also love seeing what people get at Target, one of our most beloved institutions, lol.

If you read my blog way back in the day, you may remember a post I did in 2015 entitled 9 Things That Inevitably Happen at Target.

It was my post popular post that year and showed my newbie lack of blogging skills, but it was oh so fun and a favorite to this day!!!

Now I want to preface by saying that I did go over $100 but for a very good reason. If you are familiar with Target the Circle, you know that we often get great deals and last week when I went if you spent $125, you got $15 back on your Target Circle. Therefore, I spent $127 and got it lol.

$18 was for Mr. Nine’s Coke Zero (He’s addicted)! Soda pop is so incredibly expensive, so I only get it for him when it’s on sale and I happened to notice it was, so I grabbed him the three cases, so we won’t count that… Boring, lol! I'm addicted to Bailey's but I didn't get this seasonal goodness, just wanted to show you how pretty the bottle is, LOL! (Only in Stores)

I took my mama with me on this trip as my photog and videographer, lol. We had an interesting discussion in the deodorant aisle, LOL. I love the Native Brand of deodorant!

Of course, we had to try some things on. The clothing area is the first place I go. I think they conveniently put it in front at all Targets, lol. I really didn’t see much on this trip clothing wise but when I saw this DRESS, I immediately knew I had to have it because it was just the style I was looking at for my upcoming Europe trip. It fit like a glove. Some dressing rooms at Targets are not good at all, my local one is like trying things on in a shoebox. And another Target Circle Plus was dresses were 20% off so this was under $30!

Years ago, before many of the major tanning mousse is creams and lotions came on the scene, I used Jergens glow, and it worked great. However, a few years ago I got on the Loving Tan Mousse bandwagon, and I am so in love. When I saw at Target that Jergens had come out with A Tanning Mousse, I decided to get it and the mitt, along with the Melanin Glow Moisturizer and see how it compares to the others but is substantially cheaper.

Of course, I had to get some Easter candy! Mr. Nine loves the Reese's Eggs and we always have to have at least one Cadbury Egg a season! However, I do have a bone to pick with Reese’s, they stopped making the mini Reese’s eggs. The eggs they sell now in the bag are flat (eggs halced) and a little eggs with Reese’s peanut butter in them had the best ratio. I miss those!

And OK, I got a Bottle of My Favorite PROSECCO, LOL!

I loved the Pixi Eye Makeup remover pads, that they used to sell at target, but they stopped so since I love the cleanser so much, I got the Cetaphil Gentle Makeup Remover and it works great! Also got my favorite eyeliner: Cover Girl Perfect Point Plus and Crackers:Simple Mills Almond Crackers.

I am so excited to see what they got!

BOMBER BEAUTY

OK, it’s official, the Fall fashion bug has hit me. While I am still soaking up the last precious weeks of summer, I mean our pool is still going to be open for six more weeks, LOL, my mind is gearing to Fall fashion and of course Fall decorations! Check out last year‘s 3 Fall Tiered Trays and Our Fall Front Porch! My favorites!

This Pink Plaid Bomber Jacket is literally da bomb! It was so funny because I saw it in Target on a day my mom was with me, and she had gravitated to the same one! The shade of pink is just so darn beautiful! So, last year the shacket was big and while it will still be around this year, I think these bomber jackets are going to be a hit as well, at least they are with me!

I decided to sell this cutie three different ways for you and I love them all.

First up is casual of course, because let’s face it, that’s how I dress on most days! We talked about how hard it is during the early fall with shoe transitions, where it’s not really sandal conducive anymore but you’re not quite ready for boots. Sneakers are always a great option for me! I wear sneakers year-round and just let their comfort and cuteness! Throw on some more laid-back jeans and you’re good to go!

This is where I get to jazz this bomber up a little bit and give it some edge with the Spanx Faux Leather leggings and my Karl Lagerfeld boots that I got from the Nordstrom anniversary sale. I had been eyeing these boots for a couple years I was so excited to get a fresh new pair this season that really jazzed up any outfit with black patent leather and pearl cuteness!

And for this last one, I thought about putting it with white jeans which I still would right now, but decided to go to open toe heeled booties, more bling and the jeans route for a dress up spark to the castle. I thought the darker jeans were a good contrast with the pink and white. These jeans are my first pair from the Good American and I am in complete love with them!

Ok, I was sweating when these pictures were taken as it’s still nice and warm in Indiana, but we do it for the sake of fashion, right? Plus, if you don’t scoop the stuff up, it sells out. This jacket is under $40, crafted so nicely and has pockets! Which is your favorite?
