All. About. Anna.

That's right kids. The day we've all been waiting for. Today was the day that Anna Sui's Gossip Girl inspired Target line dropped! Ready for some serious shopping, I hopped out of bed bright and early, threw on my denim minis, grabbed an Americano from Starbucks and was in shopping bliss by 9am.

Let me start by saying that Anna did not disappoint. This is by far one of the best designer lines that Target has released in a while. A slightly higher price point, averaging around $50-$70 per piece but well worth it considering the attention to design and detail. My recommendation? If you haven't made it out to your local Target yet, run don't walk because this fantastic line won't last for long.

Lucky for you, I went prepared with my camera : ) That's right--I remembered you in the midst of my shopping bonanza. So, sit back and relax; I've done the hard work for you.

Table Cloth Dress $69.99

Really liked this--however, wasn't so sure about the blue velvet bow. I can imagine it on Blair, but not me. Thought about buying it anyway and nixing the bow--I do think it would be adorable with black tights and mary janes.

Herringbone Dress $59.99

L-O-V-E this jumper and it fits perfectly. Would be great with a black turtleneck layered underneath and a pair of Chanel ballet flats :)

Silk Wrap Dress: Geo Floral $59.99

Loved the colors in this 100% silk dress. A chunky cable knit sweater and riding boots would turn this into the perfect fall look.

Silk Wrap Dress: Black $59.99

Same dress in black and white. Fantastic fit.

Silk Pattern Dress $59.99
The color and pattern in this dress was great. The wrapping in the silk bodice transforms this from a cute dress to a must-have piece. So girly-chic.

Silk Printed Tunic Dress: $49.99

Oy. How can I fully explain everything I love about this tunic in a few short lines? Well, here it goes. The colors, the pattern, the lacing in the front, the drape, the length, the sleeves, the fact that it's 100% silk, the pleating on the bottom and...I think that's it.

Wide Striped Cardigan $49.99

This little piece of heaven will work over jeans, leggings, dresses...anything. It is the perfect winter snuggle sweater : )

Floral Metallic Jacquard Dress $44.99

Dress, top, tunic--you name it this piece does it. SUPER versatile and I heart the bow around the neck.

So after I tried on just about everything in the store--it was time to narrow down my selections. As I surveyed each item, I weighed them based on: versatility, ability to withstand at least 2 seasons and how well they would integrate into my closet. So...drum roll please. These were my final choices!
