Jason Wu for Target: Haul, Style & Giveaway

Jason Wu for Target was utter chaos. Or "cows" as my Chinese/Spanish mother pronounces it.  I went to the Target about a mile away from me, got there just as they opened the doors, queued outside for 2 minutes, and finally went inside to find nothing left on the racks... 

So what did I do? I drove 10 miles to find the same result at another Target, but found the following on the racks in the fitting room =D  Unfortunately I couldn't get any bags and choked back some sobs as I saw someone checking out with the bag I wanted :(

The Haul/Review:

Overall the fabrics were pretty reasonable for Target standards. The fit was wide on many of the pieces though. 

I loved this sheer polka dotted blouse but it looks a little wide on me. The black pleated skirt hits right below my knees, so flats aren't an option with this skirt as it would make my legs look even shorter.

My favorite piece that I picked up, it's just my style and the fabric is soft and the blush pink color looks great against any skin color.

I'm returning this dress because it's very unflattering, it's big on me but also the pleating in the chest area gives me saggy boobs and I don't even have boobs to begin with! So back to the store it goes!

The Styling:

Jason Wu for Target top, H&M blazer and trousers, F21 headband, Lela Rose for Payless cutout shoes

See what I mean by wide fit on the blouse

Jason Wu for Target Top, H&M trousers, F21 headband and necklace, Calzado Jazpiel wedges

Thank you all for following and supporting my blog, it means a lot to me! I've gotten to know a lot of fabulous and interesting bloggers in the past 5 months and I'm looking forward to getting to know you gals even more this year!

The lovely gal over at Oomph gave me a Stylish Blogger Award and I happily accept! Thank you so much for picking me! I love all the looks that she puts together and I feel that we have similar taste in clothing. She's FABULOUS, so go check her out:

Rules to accept the award are:

1. thank the person who gave you the award

2. share seven facts about yourself

3. give the appreciation and award to seven bloggers, and let them know of their given award

7 Facts about me:

1. I started this blog because I missed working in fashion (I interned at Rebecca Taylor during my senior yr of college) and felt that this would be a great outlet for me to sound off on my opinions of the latest fashion trends, etc. I decided to dedicate it to Asian fashion and celebrities because I felt that we weren't getting a lot of love in the media. It's not very often that I flip open an American fashion magazine and see an Asian model or go to a website where they give a full fashion rundown on an Asian Award show. All in all, I have mad Asian pride! haha

2. I rarely buy clothes that aren't on sale. I loves me a bargain ;)

3. I like to make my own jewelry, mostly earrings and bracelets.

4. I have been addicted to vampire novels long before Twilight (I liked the books more than the movies, even though Meyer isn't that great of a writer :P). Recently finished the last book in the Vampire Academy series, so good!!!

5. Breakfast at Tiffany's is my all time favorite movie.

6. The only instrument I can play is the clarinet.

7. I speak fluent Cantonese and Mandarin, passable Spanish (although I sound like a native speaker cause my mom can speak it fluently and she always corrects me till I get it right !_!) and I am currently teaching myself Japanese and Korean via iPod apps and idol dramas xD

I'd like to pass this award to 7 other Fashionable Asian bloggers whom I've been following and admiring this past year:

1. Michelle at MichelleEsque

2. Annie at WhatAnnieWears

3. Jenny at JennyFromTheBlock

4. Eli at BoboLeeStyle

5. Aileen at AileenClarisse

6. Jen & Sherry at Jennifer & Sherry

7. Jen at HerWaiseChoice

I hope everyone has a Happy, Healthy and Stylish New Year!

And I really hope it doesn't snow anymore in NY!

I leave you with this picture of me standing in knee-high (I'm only 5 ft tall) snow trying to shovel my car out, the aftermath of the after X-mas blizzard @_@
