Holiday in Havana

 Eugenia Kim for Target
Heat and humidity has hit the city. Although it's just the beginning, it's already starting to feel like the middle of summer with sticky heat, street festivals, and Sundays full of cool Mojitos.  This kind of activity makes me want to jump into a plane and head to Havana for a quick get away, but in the meantime I can pretend by dressing the part. Havana has played a major part in influencing fashion this season. Take a look at the wild prints Derek Lam laid out for his Spring 2010 collection. These popping floral prints are perfect for a hot Havana night, salsa dancing in a street.

I am especially loving the blue dress and the messy retro updos to tie the look together. 


And let's not forget hats! you can't have a true Cuban feel without a fedora. Good news for us, Target is making it fool proof when picking your perfect summer hat. Eugenia Kim for Target has officially hit the stores April 18th and I have already picked out half the collection to pine over!
