For spring/summer 2010, Cerre opted to show a series of short films at its Hollywood store at 1647 North Las Palmas, culling together one of the most stylish groups of attendees I’ve seen thus far during LA Fashion Week (or rather, month). The dim-lit ambiance set an appealing mood, but, unfortunately, was not great for photos. I recommend going to the boutique to check out designers Flavie and Clayton Webster’s collection for yourself, where fall/winter 2009 and spring/summer 2010 were both out for the seeing and feeling.

Pieces are meticulously constructed (check the gorgeous leather jacket with hand-cut back above) with interesting fabric combinations (for instance, leather and mesh on a skirt, adding a hint of transparency). Prices reflect the high-end materials and small-run production, exclusive to a few shops in the US, Europe and Asia. Very lovely.

Target has continued it’s designer masstidge trend with a jewelry collection from Anna Sheffield. Anna is a New York based jewelry designer who is originally from New Mexico.

Anna’s haute-costume line of jewelry is branded under the name “Bing Bang” which includes a bespoke custom collection crafted with materials including sterling, gold and precious stones.

This is the thing we’ve been waiting on all summer long… the Gossip-Girl-inspired collection from Anna Sui, for Target. Target has really upped their game over the past couple of years, and they’ve still managed to keep prices reasonable, even though it has to be said that this collection is pricier than most of the things they offer.

There are a lot of separates and other cute pieces in this collection, but the real attraction is the selection of dresses, most of which will work well for just about any body shape.

I’ve started to develop an expensive habit: jewelry. Much like my philosophy with clothing, I’ve started to buy the best jewelry I can afford–fewer pieces of the nice stuff, instead of a lot of cheap junk. And while my budget doesn’t take me too far, one of my favorite jewelry designers is Anna Sheffield–her Bing Bang line has a vintage-inspired aesthetic, with a lot of tiny charms and mixed chains. And while Anna had a short-lived line last year with Urban Outfitters, called Bee 23, she is back with an even better masstige collaboration, this time with Target. Called Anna Sheffield, the line features necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings, with prices ranging from a very affordable $19.99 to $79.99, and I’m happy to say, it’s very true to the spirit of her signature collection.

I love how many of her necklaces are asymmetrical, like the one in the middle above, but there’s always an element of femininity, like the ribbon and heart-locket necklaces to either side.

If, like me, you are a lover of dangling earrings, you’ll hit the jackpot here. I can attest that these multi-chain styles look really sexy with long hair.

I absolutely love the bird-and-rhinestone combo of these earrings and ring–they’re like antiques, but better.

This is the kind of necklace that looks good with everything from T-shirts to dresses, and since it has so many different colors of chains, you literally can wear it with everything.

And I don’t know what this is for sure–I think it’s a ring–but whatever it is, I know I want it.

The collection–including many more pieces not pictured here–hits Target stores and Target.com this Sunday, August 30th. Hurry, before I buy every last piece!

I keep coming back to Target for all my recessionista needs – they just seem to have the best stylish basics at reasonable prices. For trendy styles like these skinny jeans, Target is the perfect place to shop. Who knows if skinny jeans will be here to stay, but how can you resist these adorable candy colored denim styles for only $19.99 a pair?

I saw some similar jeans in a much higher-end store for ten times the price, and to be honest I think these look just as good. And they’re so comfortable! Pair these sweet skinnies with ballet flats, Havaianas flip flops or platform pumps.

When news hit that jewelry designer Anna Sheffield was designing a collection for Target, I will admit to some pretty high expectations, considering my admiration for Bing Bang, and I’m pleased with what I see from the photos of the line, landing in-store August 30 and ranging from $19.99-$79.99, per the release.

Of particular note is the multi-strand necklace in rose gold and silver with an ornate clasp for $69.99, which will be an online exclusive; a sweet birdy ring with faux crystal for $19.99; a ribbon-ed scissor locket necklace for crafty types for $49.99; and a charm bracelet in rose and yellow gold and silver with dangling faux crystal and heart-shaped lock for $39.99. Happily, Sheffield offers ample bang for the buck here.
