Today I'm featuring the Thakoon Addition Spring 2013 collection. This collection had 26 looks and I saved 20 of them (which I narrowed down a little for this post), so I think it's safe to say that I am in love. I am not usually one for soft looks an girly colors but this collection is too pretty to dislike. Thakoon called the collection a little bit Americana and a cheerleader moment. I'm not a cheerleader fan, read: gymnastics snob, so I'll ignore that part and call it American Girl.
I think what I love most about this collection is that it is a lot of separates that can be mixed and matched to create infinite looks. You can also take the pieces and fit them in easily with your own wardrobes because the colors go with everything. (well perhaps not everything, but a lot)

On March 13th I ordered four of Target's Go International Re-Release dresses. Sadly only the Proenza Schouler dress looked really good. The two Thakoon dresses were okay, but the thin strapped one was a bit weird on top. I did really like the black and white Thakoon, but I'm not sure if I want to keep it. The Tracy Feith dress was a little too tight so I couldn't zip it all the way, but it looked good from the front, ha ha. My sister and I ended up going to Target on Saturday and they had the Tracy Feith dress in the next size and it fit both of us...so we might keep it and share it.
I've put the ones I wasn't sure about on eBay and if they don't sell I'll decide what to do with them. The auction links are under the images. If you want to make an offer off ebay you can email me and I can remove the listing ;) They end on Tuesday so I should be able to ship them before I go on vacation (Depending on how fast you pay, I ship the same or next day)
And here is how I look in the dresses, these are just quick shots I had my sister take when we were trying them on (she got a Zac Posen one, but it didn't fit). The designer is under the image.
I also did a bit more shopping on Saturday, I got bright pieces (which my wardrobe is sorely lacking...sadly 2 will never be seen by eyes other than mine). I got 2 t-shirt bras at Victoria's Secret for $25 (I had a coupon, WOO!) I also got some coral Steve Madden wedges for $19.99. But I'm being bad this month...I bet I go over budget even though there's only 1 week left that will count toward my monthly spending. I haven't added the Target dresses to the sidebar yet, I'm waiting until they sell so I can figure out how much they really cost me.
(The money I spend in Florida doesn't count because I budgeted my vacation spending for Florida and London at the beginning of the year with the rest of my yearly budget)
