OK so I had an extra 45 minutes the other day without kids and what better way to spend it than a quick trip to Target? (laundry really does wait) I needed a few household things but for some reason decided to swing through shoes just in case. I have been looking for that cute little suede Valda flat for weeks and weeks but in my store it pretty much sold down to just-one-pair in not-my-size and my size was sold out online in the cranberry and black.
I was happily surprised with rows of Valdas in both of those colors. Yay for replens! So if you've been looking for this popular and elusive shoe, check to see if your store has been restocked too. I haven't checked online so I don't know about that. They aren't as comfortable as Revas, but hey, they are $170.05 less. I took my regular size. Gigi reviewed them here.
Mossimo Valda in Cranberry $24.99
Then I thought of my freezing hands the other night at soccer practice. I have a couple pairs of cashmere gloves in fun colors but wanted a pair of classic black leather and was really happy to find these. I think I've been on a quilting kick lately since I've been admiring and/or dreaming of the Christian Dior Panerea bag nearly daily now. And I also remember the Chanel saleslady telling me how quilting helps the leather hold its shape better so I brought home these. They are lined with a knitted acrylic and the leather is really as super soft as any Reva (or dare I even say Chanel bag!) you could pick up. Soooooffft!
Merona Gloves Black/AAM57 $17.99
Oh, and I also got this great green glass soap dispenser. Gotta love Target.
Friday! Yes!! Hope everyone is getting ready for a great weekend!
xoxo

I actually tried those on, when they were first out, but didn't get them thinking I wouldn't have enough to go with them. I love the gloves. I need some black leather gloves, so I must check these out. Thank you,for reading my mind!
ReplyDeleteCute flats! I haven't seen these flats at my Target. I'll have to check again this week.
ReplyDeleteI love your target find postings! After I read your review, I also went to Target to look for those cute flats. I guess I was really lucky cuz there were only three left in that color and one of them was my size. They are really adorable. Thank you!
