Last night I attended a preview of Zac Posen for Target. I rarely get excited for events, but this is Zac Posen and a precursor to the 24-hour shopping party. The night was full of glamour, fun and tons of fashion.The walls were  lined with racks of clothing and I felt like I was in a glamazons dressing room. And the festive atmosphere had an elegant, prom-like feel with chandeliers and pink balloons coating the ceiling. A cute added touch was the polaroids that were taken of the guests.The designer's line doesn't hit stores until the 25th, but party-goers had a chance to view and purchase the affordable frocks (prices range from $16.99 to $199.99).There was something for every occasion or style, including  flow-y tops, pleated skirts and bright prints.

My favorite piece had to be this brocade dress. At $74.99, it's perfect for a dressy evening.

I'm normally not a fan of one pieces, but the amazing structure of this red hot bathing suit is the epitome of glamour and it's only $34.99.

Check out the rest of the flicks below.

I love a cute romper, but I've been leery of purchasing one because I think they can come off a bit juvenile. But I swooned over Kourtney Kardashian's recent look in Miami. The Free People romper ($148) and crisp white blazer is paired with chic accessories:  YSL Tribute sandals, Tod's sunglasses and Chanel quilted bag. Certainly a cute, yet chic look.If Kourt's flair for fashion is too rich for your purse strings, below is the look for less if you want to rock the romper chic look.Sunglasses: Asos, $27.35 Blazer:...

Right now I seriously swooning over Dalla Nonna's calendar necklace. The piece has a unique vintage-y feel. Made of silver or gold, the necklace is a great customizable piece as a stone (blue, green, pink, red, white or yellow sapphire) is placed on a particular day of the month (you choose the month and day). Prices range from $150 to $400.If the price tag is too steep, there's a similar version on Etsy for $35. The silver charm is just as customizable, but instead of a sapphire, the...
