BOOM + #FundayMonday Link-Up!
{{Sweatshirt: Philip Lim for Target // {{Corduroy Pants: Old Navy // {{Shoes: TOMS // {{Watch: Michael Kors (gift) // {{Bag: Borrowed from Brooke (who is also the one who took these pics)
If you can believe it, this BOOM sweatshirt from the Philip Lim for Target collaboration is the first item I’ve ever purchased new from a Target collab. And to be honest, I wasn’t WOWed with the Philip Lim collection, but the moment I saw this BOOM sweatshirt, I knew it needed to be in my closet. It’s so fun!
Now that the weather has actually become “fall-ish” in North Carolina, I’m excited to find different ways to style this sweatshirt AND bust out all my favorite fall clothes. Cardigans, sweaters, and scarves FTW!!
Although spring is my favorite season, fall in Chapel Hill has quickly become a close second favorite and may even edge out spring. 😉
Side note: I also am totally in the mood to go apple picking, but I have no idea if there’s any places in this area to do it. Any North Carolinians know of any good places to go pick apples? Or maybe even pumpkins!
What fun fall activities are you looking forward to this year? Did you get anything from the Philip Lim for Target collection? Would you rock the BOOM sweatshirt? 🙂

Woo hoo! I love the Boom sweatshirt! I bet fall is beautiful there!
thank you so much, niki!
Love “BOOM” on you, girl! It’s so cute. I’m dying for the owl and fox graphic sweaters at Old Navy. I want to get one fitted to wear with collard shirts and skinnies, then one oversized for leggings! I’m so excited to start posting more outfits, now that I’m working! Love a reason get myself ready each morning. 🙂 There’s no apple picking over this way, as far as I know. I hear there’s great places in the mountains of NC! We specialize in summer fruit and veg in Greenville. 🙂
i am LOVING those graphic sweaters at old navy right now!
Cute outfit Molly. Love the sweater with the red Toms. Great casual look!!!!!

Love the sweatshirt Molly! I have it too and am just WAITING for it to freaking cool off here so I can wear it! Thank goodness it’s finally officially fall. I usually find 1 or 2 pieces from each Target collection and this was one of them. I’m giving away a bag too! You should come enter 🙂

thank you so much, chelsea!
I wasn’t wowed by anything from the Phillip Lim collection; although that sweatshirt IS fun!
I did buy 2 bags; but I didn’t keep them.
I have been thinking of apple picking this year too, for some odd reason! We go to the pumpkin patch every year, but I have never done apple picking.
Happy Fall!

i can’t wait to go to the pumpkin patch, too!!
The Boom sweatshirt is super cute! I didn’t buy anything from the collection. I know people were going nuts over the bags but it wasn’t worth it to me.
I love going apple/pumpkin picking in the fall!

yeah i wasn’t wowed by the collection, either!
I saw a lot of pretty things but I only wanted the small satchel. I got it in taupe. I wanted a scarf but they were all gone! This sweater is cute on you! Garner, NC is my hometown so I love the weather there all the time. I am in DC now and it is hit or miss for me, lol!
BTW- I don’t see the linky today.
Thanks, Karen! Garner is a great area. I actually grew up in DC so it’s like we switched. 🙂 are you sure you don’t see the linky? It’s there at the bottom of the post.
Great outfit! You look amazing!

I love the sweatshirt on you, so cute! I didn’t buy anything from the collection either. I was interested in one of the smaller satchels but they sold out super fast.

thank you so much, yi-chia! yeah i wanted one of those small bags so badly!
This is too fun–I love the comic-bookness of it!
thank you so much, alyssa!!!
I like the Boom sweatshirt! I also love your courduroys. Something about corduroy just makes me happy. :o) We are going apple picking; I’m not sure where yet. I know there is a place in Ramseur, but I’m sure there is something closer to you.
aw thank you so much, lins!! let me know if you hear of any good places to go!
Molly,
If anyone can bring the ‘Boom’, you can!! 🙂 🙂 You’re so cute and this sweatshirt absolutely suits you. Happy Monday!

aw thank you so much, mel!
We typically head up to the mountains for apple picking, take beautiful back roads, and stop whenever we find an orchard. So that may not be helpful if you’re not in the mood for that much adventure with a newborn. 🙂 As for pumpkins, my favorite place is Jean’s Berry Patch (they have strawberries in the summer and pumpkins in fall) — http://www.jeansberrypatch.com/. It’s on Hwy 751 between Durham and Apex, out toward Jordan Lake.
Thanks so much for featuring my ABC sandwiches! They seem to taste that much better when you’ve picked the apples yourself. 🙂
oh i need to go to that pumpkin patch!!!!
Such a fun sweatshirt!! and if you find somewhere to apple pick in NC let me know where. i’ve been wanting to go too! 🙂
xo,
Angela
apparently there’s a place in siler city!! if i learn where it is i’ll let you know!
we are going apple picking soon in Siler City if you guys are interested!!!!!!
brooke @ what2wear

Molly,, what a fun and WOW Sweater. It’s indeed an eyecatcher and I think it can be styled multiple ways. I am living in Germany so I didn’t get any of Lims items, they shut their side down when the have collabs :-(. A good think my bf is american and could grab a bag for me, man I wish he would have gotten me this amazing Sweater. it look super super amahing on you 🙂 following you now via Bloglovin 🙂

I bought that sweatshirt too! Can’t wait to wear mine.
yay!! twins!
I’ve never bought anything from a Target collab either but this sweatshirt is so fun! Love how it looks with your red toms.
thank you so much, inge!!
That sweatshirt is so cute!! I bought one of the bags from the collection and I am still pondering if I should keep it. I like it but don’t love it. I linked up today! My daughter and I are showcasing our favorite skirts(: Be blessed! Susan
thank you so much, susan! i wanted the yellow bag but they sold out so fast! thanks for linking up!
Thank you for having me in this fun party.

anytime!
Love the sweatshirt on you! I agree with you that the collection was not a WOW but more of a BOOM! I’m sporting one of the items from his line too 🙂 Come by and check it out at http://mamainheels.com/2013/09/22/3-1-phillip-lim-for-target-craze/ when you get a chance.
Thank you for hosting the link up!

so glad i’m not the only one who wasn’t WOWed by it!
I love that sweatshirt!!!!!
Wish I’d bought it!
i am in love with it!
I’d totally rock that sweatshirt! It’s actually one of 3 things I like from the new Target collection. I’ve never gone apple picking but I have always wanted too, some friends of mine go to Asheville every year for apples. I am not sure of any places locally in the Triangle that offer apple picking though. For pumpkins check out Hill Ridge Farms – http://www.hillridgefarms.com/
Happy 1st day of Fall! 🙂
i would LOVE to go to asheville to pick apples! i bet it’s beautiful in the fall!
