Alice Temperley GO(es) International

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing, Dresses

The past two Go International for Target lines have been underwhelming at best. There were just too many trendy patterns, theme-y looks and ham-handed references for my taste. (Stop using skulls people!)

Thankfully, Alice Temperley's new fall line redeems my faith in Target's GO International. Anglophiles will be pleased to see that Temperley has kept the looks true to the fashion sensibilities of her native UK.

The collection is not so much the wild street fashion of House of Holland nor is it the buttoned-up formality of Burberry. Instead, Alice Temperley strikes a perfect chord by blending feminine Victorian influences with a kind of devil-may-care modern street urchin sensibility. I'm especially fond of the way she has chosen to pair navy blue with black -- it's very chic, indeed.

Here are a few of my favorite pieces:

Lace Inset Tank in Navy Voyage ($14.99)
Belted Tunic Sweater in Ebony/ Federal Blue ($29.99)
Moss Stitch Sweater Coat in Brimstone Gray ($44.99)
Crepe Wrap Dress in Navy Voyage/ Ebony ($39.99)
