In July I reported that Rachel Roy & Estelle were teaming up for a limited edition jewelry collection for this spring, & now there is more news.

You can be the first to shop this brand new collection featuring big & bold pieces beginning February 9th! For 3 days only Rachel will host a "digital" pop-up store on her Facebook page, debuting the collection weeks before it enters stores. The collection includes a range of statement necklaces, funky rings & cool ear cuffs--all a culmination of inspiration & styles from Rachel & Estelle. Better yet prices range from $34-$50, not bad.

You will also have the chance to score an ultra exclusive full finger petal ring (pictured below) that was designed to be sent to Rachel & Estelle's closest fashion & music insider friends.

American Apparel Launches Nail Polish Collection


One of my shopping haunts American Apparel now has a newly launched nail polish collection, featuring 18 colors & is DBP, toluene and formaldehyde-free. Per PR Newswire, each of the 18 colors are inspired by important facets of American Apparel. For example, the Factory Grey shade is the actual shade used to paint all floors of the company’s manufacturing operations, & the Office shade was matched to the color of an accounting notepad found on the seventh floor of American Apparel’s headquarters. Kinda cool, huh?

A girl can never have too many nail polish choices right? I might have to try it out & tell you all what I think. American Apparel Nail Lacquer is $6 per bottle & is also available in a 3-pack for $15. You can find them at all American Apparel stores & online.

Zac Posen to Design for Target


Photos courtesy: Style.com

According to WWD, Target has announced that they have tapped Zac Posen to be the next designer of their limited edition Go International series. Specific price points of the merchandise have not yet been determined but Posen's own designs retail from $900 to $12,000, & sometimes even higher. This collection for Target will give the mass market a fair shot at having something designed by the man himself without spending their entire savings. I'm definitely looking forward to what he comes up with for the collection.

The Zac Posen for Target Go International collection will be available next spring, April 25th through May 30th at Target stores & on Target.com. I'll be sure to post updates once more information becomes available.
