RIGHT

ON TARGET!

LOOK SPIFFY IN UNDER $150

Regardless of certain brands driven by the fashion
insider, every budget-minded individual deserves to look
sharp, at an affordable price. For the everyday guy stores like Target provide an array of inexpensive classics to mix-and-match with favored items in your wardrobe and can even stand as an entire look all it’s own. The experience was eye-opening, styling ideal pieces into a full look, all under $150.


  KEEP WARM,

  LAYER UP.

Unyime: While browsing our local Target store, we discovered an abundance of Merona items, we’re assuming is one of Target’s premiere brands. I’ve had a bit of experience with Merona, finding a few items while thrifting. However, this field jacket was a fortunate Target clearance find. I especially like the contrasting corduroy collar and a Fair Isle patterned beanie is unique for the season.

• Merona Men’s Jacket,
(Wagon Brown), $27.99
• Fair Isle Beanie, (Navy), $14.99

  WINTER

  FRESH

Jonathan: We found Target to carry a wide variety of items essential to any one’s wardrobe. From slim dark jeans, to the Fair Isle socks; but what blew me away were the suede Randy Boots. A marriage of style, function, and class.

  KNIT KNACK

  Stay warm, look cool.

• Merona V-Neck Sweater, (Angel Food), $11.49
•Merona Poplin Shirt, (Green/White), $16.99

• Denizen by Levi’s,
(Illusion),$27.00
•Merona Leather
Slide-Buckle Belt,
(Cognac), $10.99
• Fair Isle Socks,
(Gray), 2 for $5
•Merona Randy Boots,
(Brown Suede), $34.99

Total: $149.44

Special thanks to our friends @ IEPR.

      Hey Mario, thanks for voicing your thoughts. I must add though that these “projects” we will be doing involve a group effort,
      as both Jonathan and myself put this look together, with Thom of photographing/filming as usual. We are Expressions Realia.

    This is great. I will definitely have to check my local target for these items. They really do have some great stuff.
    I have a couple henleys from there that I really like. They also have the timex weekender for $35, fyi.
