Growing up in 90’s we had great smooth R&B, questionable fashion and of course the Spice Girls. Yes, I was fan and you guessed it… Posh Spice was my favourtie Spice Girl;  I loved her classic and innovative fashion sense. Watching her transform from Posh Spice to fashion icon, has been incredible for the fashion world and now for my closet!

Now, you all know that Target is one of my favourite pastimes and I was beyond excited when I heard that Victoria Beckham was collaborating with Target. Naturally, I was stalking the website daily until the 9 April release date. From the first picture of her collection, I was hooked. I loved the scalloped trim in the skirts and tanks. The classic black and white to bold pinks and organges. Let’s not forget the spring themed prints of bunnies, bees, calla lilies daisies and mulitfloral prints that captures the classic English style. Her collection is sized from 00-26, which allows women of truley different size to expereince her collection

Now, I’ve been working in fashion for almost a decade and I have seen many celebrities create collections that have been less than successful due to many elements of from sizing to pricing. Victoria Beckham’s Collection for Target seems to have mastered those two elements. I have ordered two pieces from her collection and I find that her sizing is generous and the  price is ideal with the average price point of $45. I persoanlly love Victoria Beckhams’s style and really excited about this collaboration and the variety that exists within the collection. The three pieces I purchased, the black and white scallaped skirt,  fuchsia trousers and a beautiful white bib blouse have been fabulous additions to my wardrobe.  From the first announcement of her launch, I tagged the skirt in my favourite section and of course it sold out immediately, so I had to order it and patiently await its arrival.

I was impressed with the structure of the skirt, the fit and how it moved on me. The skirt has a side zip which fasted and laid nice and flat and did not bunch like some skirts I own. The skirt was the one piece that sold me on her collection; it is bold, dramatic and classic. I’ve paired it with a black cami and sweater for a very classic English look and then I paied with my signature pop of colour to make the look my own.

 

The perfect white blouse. I’ve been, along with many others, in search for the perfect white blouse, which I any have found in her collection.  It is collarless bub style blouse with detailed buttons. It has become my go piece for black pants of distressed denim and heels.  The blouse is a perfect fit for those who struggle with a blouse that doesn’t pucker at the bust. I have received so many compliments on this blouse, that I have  invested in another( yes I did, girl yes I did lol)

The trousers, I’ve had to try a couple of sizes, they are a generous fit and longer than most of my pants that I own, but they are worth the purchase and for a few dollars more, I will have them hemmed for the perfect length. I’ve seen a couple of more pieces that I will add to my wardrobe and I am anxious to see how many seasons Victoira Beckhma will collaborate with Target.

I, Syraluna, approve of this collaboration. Victoria Beckham and her team were smart to introduce her collection the way they did. She introduced her brand to an eclectic group of consumers ranging fro product to her sizing. Though some criticized  her sizing for being too big, I think she truly captured English style for the American fashionista who understands and appreciates that true style can evolve while being true to the foundation of the brand
