VERY BRIGHT

Now that Thakoon's collection for Target has wrapped, it's a lot more difficult to score one of the designer's sublime creations without first creating a savings account. But although obtaining his fluttery clothes may be a commitment, you can get another piece of the Thakoon runway look for about $20. Flashback: Thakoon x Target This week, Thakoon releases a limited edition set of nail polishes for NARS. Designed to compliment his Spring and Summer 2012 collections, the shades range from cool and pale (a rainy sky color called Kutki) to deep red (his is named Lal Mirchi, the Indian word for red chili pepper). Come backstage with Francois NARS during New York Fashion Week. The shades retail for $18 each, but only until they sell out. Fortunately, you've got two ways to score them - at NARS beauty counters, or at Sephora.
