ZAC POSEN TARGET POP UP SHOP: Part 2


SOOOOOOOOOOOO I WENT!

My friend Michelle and I ventured over to the Zac Posen pop up shop around a quarter to one.
Unfortunately we waited about 2 hours longer than we should have considering it was less than packed when we arrived. Nonetheless, we had a great time. The clothes were beautiful (best quality I've seen from a Go Collection) and the atmosphere was perfect for an all night dance party. Unfortunately most of the 'dance party' had dispersed before we arrived, but a really good DJ in the middle of a shopping event never hurt anyone.

Racks and racks of clothing lined the border of the ginormous room, but it was still hard to find some of the must have items from the collection. As we scoured the room for grommet and tiger print dresses, something absolutely crazy happened. We didn't have to be sneaky, we didn't have to circle like hawks, fellow shoppers (yes, GIRLS) were helping each other out. "Oh you need a size small. Here!" "Hey, I have an extra yellow raincoat. What size do you need?" It was a midnight shopping Zac Posen for Target collaborative miracle! Sample sales should really consider changing their schedules. Apparently tired = nice. Who would have thought?

Here are some pics from our little midnight adventure:

MY FAVORITE PURCHASE: BLACK & NAVY SNAP DRESS
*The best part is, you can snap the snaps together and create entirely different silhouettes. Make it shorter, make a bustle, make a cap sleeve. A.Maze.Ing.*

ZAC POSEN TARGET POP UP SHOP: Part 1

It's 12:00 pm on a Thursday night and I am sitting here drinking my second cup of black tea. I have a bad head cold and, I'm starting to suspect, my very first signs of severe allergies. Some may ask why I am drinking a caffeinated beverage when I should have been in bed hours ago. Well, his name is Zac and we have been in a very one sided relationship for quite some time now. He is in town visiting and has brought lots of clothes for me to try on but the only catch is: I have to go with the rest of the New York City females in the middle of the night to do so. And I may have to fight someone.

You may remember that a few months ago I wrote a very sentimental blog post about my first and only encounter with Zac Posen. I was 18 years old and was not only starstruck by his latest runway show, but by his genuine sincerity. From that day on I have always been a huge fan of his and I would do anything to support him. Including stay up until the wee hours of the night to buy his latest Target collection. Oh, and did I mention that Zac will be making random cameo appearances throughout the night? Okay...so I may have some ulterior motives..

STAY TUNED...
