The Anna Sui collection isn't all that. The palette and prints are nice, but the fabrics are awful. Like sweat bullets awful. The anorak is the best item, but in SoCal, I couldn't justify it.
regarding the Anna Sui collection at Target - the Berkeley location was FULLY stocked with the entire collection as of this weekend. so if you're in the Bay Area, you're in luck.
@rednrowdy: No worries- it will be back to it's originlly setting next year. Consider it a mid-life crisis of sorts. Turn 50, shake it up a bit, freak everyone out, get some attention, then go back to your original setting.
The Hope Diamond is really the least impressive thing in their whole gem collection. (Now, the room before the Hope Diamond room -- THAT has some impressive rocks. An emerald the size of my fist! Sparkly things!)
And now, they want to take something underwhelming and make it look positively dated and ugly? *sigh*
@Yahtzii: Hey, I'm just glad I'm not the only person who can't see a big blue sparkly without thinking of Celine Dion. It's like a bizarre form of PTSD.
I thought you ladies were being over-critical, but good lord those are ugly. And they all have a very "dated" feeling to me, like they would have looked fantastic on Dynasty. The one it's in now is perfect; I adore that chain.

those three new settings you designed are really, really bad. they look like something i could buy at claire's, and i'm not even remotely kidding.
