We all have good intentions when it comes to gift-giving, but sometimes time just slips away and you find yourself only a few days out from the big occasion and scrambling! As a new parent, I’ve found that Target has rapidly become my end all, be-all, and shopping for special gifts is no exception. It really has everything! I’ve pulled my top gifts for dad from the retailer that you have grown to love and trust, and conveniently has tons of locations so that you don’t need to nervously wait for something to arrive in the mail by Saturday. See below for my top Target pics for dad, which range from apparel and accessories to grooming and gadgets.
1) Duke Cannon does such a nice job with its product line, producing quality items with catchy slogans and graphics in cool packaging. Additionally, a portion of the proceeds benefit U.S. Veterans. Spoil dad with the Father of the Year Shave Kit (it includes the brand’s awesome lip balm) or the News Anchor 2-in-1 Hair Wash in Tea Tree Formula.
2) Rebels Refinery is another great ‘cool dad’ brand that makes handy dandy products that dad is sure to get a lot of use out of such as the Dirty Boy Bamboo Wipes, perfect for his gym bag, or the Rebels Refinery Wealth of Man Organic Oil Bar Soap, which already comes hand-wrapped in a twine and wax-sealed package (hint: no wrapping required!).

There’s a rising trend and increasing necessity in customization and multi-functional versatility within the fashion industry. Brands like Mansur Gavriel, Burberry and Goyard are placing increasing power on consumers through the freedom of customization. Women’s ready-to-wear apparel line, Nicole Frank is also built on customization but with an added layer of innovative ease and comfort to express your style, no matter the season. All pieces are made of high-tech, Swiss-imported fabrics that are wrinkle and stain-resistant for a consistently luxe and polished look.
For a must-have transition piece from day to night, opt for stylish shoe straps that elevate your heels and add a pep to your step. Available in emerald beaded embellishments or a preppy striped bow, the straps conveniently fit in any clutch so you can ease from dinner to drinks while also transforming your favorite pair of shoes.
Traveling to a summer getaway? Inject a vibrant yet playful boost of pattern to any handbag with multipurpose scarves that look just as eye-catching on your neck as it does as a bag strap. You can even braid it into your hair or use it as a belt to accent your outfit. Lightweight yet bold, each unique scarf is reworked from vintage fabrics so you can avoid sacrificing your style or suitcase space.
Transition from summer to fall with your clothing thanks to zip-on additions like a posh fur collar or leather cuff so you can wear your favorite pieces all-year-round. Browse through the slideshow above for some sartorial inspiration on styling the pieces.

Slides are certainly incredibly reminiscent of my middle school years, and unlike other trends from that era, I’m actually glad that they are making a strong comeback. Come to think of it, we called them ‘shower sandals,’ and there wasn’t much fashion involved; the look was relatively utilitarian, and sport brands, such as Nike and Adidas, produced the coolest offerings with their name, swoosh mark, or stripes plastered across them. The style has certainly evolved in 2018, and today there are a variety of fabric and adornment options to choose from that will encourage you to include several pairs in your shoe collection. See the section below for the seven pairs that are on my bucket list!

Being a new mom, I need a deodorant/antiperspirant combination that is so effective I can put it on and never think about it for the rest of the day. That includes moving through numerous outfit changes without leaving behind any white marks/residue. One of Dove’s latest dry spray antiperspirant products zeroes in on just that, preventing that annoying rub off into garments which can prove to be embarrassing if seen on the outside. Now available in the four fragrances of Sheer Cool, Crystal Touch, Clear Finish and Sheer Finish, you can rest assured that one of these scents will become a favorite, downright refusing to mar your clothing with a white deodorant gash, leaving no marks on 100 colors of clothing!
Currently available at mass grocery and drug retailers nationwide, the sprays retail for about $5.49 each.
