I Tried It

Agua Bendita, Fe Noel, and RHODE.

Every season, hordes of fashion fanatics (including myself) wait patiently forTargets Designer Collectioncollaborators to be announced.

Below, my unfiltered thoughts on the pieces I tried first-hand.

Due to their Columbian heritage, the duo is especially partial to beachy florals imagined in feminine silhouettes.

My easiest look of the week was their throw-on-and-goPeony Botanical Print Jumpsuit.

The bust features tie-closure straps that can be criss-crossed and wrapped whatever way fits you best.

This makes for a supportive and secure fit, despite the plunge neckline (even formy 36G chest).

Fe Noel

Fe Noelis perhaps the coolest of all cool-girl summer wardrobe brands.

Felisha Fe Noel embraces her Grenadian heritage when designing.

This often results in whimsical-but-wearable shapes and vibrant hues plus, a few standout prints for good measure.

I slipped into thebralette-style bikini topand matchingcheeky bottoms, and was immediately impressed by the tops coverage.

RHODE

Real fashionistas knew aboutRHODElong before aHailey Bieber dropped her skincare line of the same name.

Stunning, no doubt, but not my favorite fit for curvy bodies.

Ironically, I found the best fit of all three lines in a four-piece RHODE look.
