We all embellish a little from time to time. Me? I’m always a sucker for a little dash of sparkle (hello, pretty) or a well placed zipper. Even better when mixed with a prim and proper pattern (like these jacquard pants) or a well tailored jacket (like this super affordable one — another fantabulous Target find!). The stud embellishment trend has been big for a while, and looks like it’s here to stay. At times, I feel like I could take it or leave it, though I think these studded jeans and these studded ankle boots are a definite TAKE TAKE TAKE. What about you? Along with tailoring and lots of black and white goodness, Target’s got a few other embellished tricks up their sleeve this fall (classics like quilting details and chinoiserie patterns included).
As for additional embellishments: I’ve been on national television three times in my life, I’ve exchanged numbers with a professional athlete, and I’ve crowd surfed at a concert — twice. Guess which one is an embellishment? Actually, that’s really fun. Dare you to share yours in the comments — I’d love to guess about what you’re embellishing!!

That jacket has a great cut. And the zippers add a little moto to the look. Love.
Beautiful. Love those strappy shoes!

Mmm studs and zippers. So punk rock but done tastefully here. Great picks, lady!

Love those shoes in the sparkle section! And I can’t guess the embellishment – maybe crowd surfing?
Kristina does the Internets
The rhinestone flats… to die for!
Obsessed with those zippered booties and the sequin pants…yes please!

ugh – those sequin pants are incredible. I saw them when they first came out, but I think they’re a little much for me to pull off. they are SO cool though!

For me too, they’re a total daydream piece. I don’t think I could pull them off!
Haha LOVED this game at camp. Can you guess? My dad was in the army; I’ve also exchanged numbers with a professional athlete; I’ve been called on stage on a concert…
I’m into the zippers and those baroque-style pants!
Hmm…dad in the army? Only because it seems like it’s the most ubiquitous (even though it’s not!).
I love everything about this post! Can’t believe those shoes are only $99…I expected them to be way more.
