Calypso-so


beach wear and beachy home goods fave 
of celebrities and people with more money than me
Calypso St. Barth hit Target today

the kids' stuff was adorable of course

the women's...not so much
cheapy and kind of gaudy
not the sexy beachy feel of the real stuff

I forgot to look for the jewelry and online
it looks pretty good

the home goods were virtually nonexistant in my store
and online
no pillows
lots of plastic plates
elephant tea pot was cute
meh.

  3. I felt the same way! And ditto on the home stuff, my store had almost none! I did get the same dress your adorable daughter got, now I need to figure out how to make the straps longer. I can't wear it right now without choking myself. Oh, and I have a friend who makes the most wonderful cuffs out of vintage belts, holler if you want her info.

  6. Oh, she's a cute patoot in that!

    Yeah, it was sad that the stuff for the wee ones was the best of it all.
