FINDS

Oh my goodness, you guys! My latest Target run for fall and Halloween decor was an absolute dream, and I just had to share some extra tips for snagging those perfect pieces, especially if you're aiming for that effortlessly cool VSCO aesthetic that I know so many of us, including myself, adore. When I'm browsing the aisles, I always keep an eye out for items that feel a little vintage, a little cozy, and definitely photo-ready – you know, the kind of things that make your space feel TikTok or Lemon8 famous! One thing I've learned is to hit up the seasonal sections early. Seriously, the 'Fear Fest' displays at Target are always packed with gems, from adorable spooky mugs to those iconic ghostface items that sell out in a flash. This year, I was specifically looking for pieces that would blend well with my existing fall decor but also add that touch of playful spookiness, without going overboard. Think: minimalist ghost figures, warm fairy lights, and textured throw blankets in autumn hues. These are the staples that really define that popular aesthetic. To truly channel that 'Sarah Malani' inspired vibe – someone who always seems to find the most unique and stylish pieces – I suggest looking beyond the obvious. Don't just grab the first pumpkin you see! Instead, look for ceramic pumpkins with matte finishes, or mini gourds that can be grouped together for a chic vignette. For a real VSCO touch, consider adding elements like dried pampas grass, rustic wooden accents, or even some cute, neutral-toned candles. These small details can elevate your 'FINDS' from just basic decor to a curated collection. What I love about Target is how you can mix and match. I picked up a few ghostface-themed kitchen towels and a subtle spooky candle during my last trip. They instantly added personality to my kitchen without clashing with my overall aesthetic. And for those who love to photograph their hauls, remember to think about texture and lighting. The best VSCO-style photos often feature natural light, a clean background, and a mix of soft textures. So, when you're picking out those Target finds, imagine how they'll look in your next flat lay or room tour. Don't forget the Dollar Spot or Bullseye's Playground! I swear, some of my best and most affordable fall finds come from there. You can often find small ghostface-themed trinkets or mini fall signs that are perfect for adding those little touches without breaking the bank. It's all about being strategic and having fun with it. Happy hunting for your own perfect Target fall haul that truly reflects your unique style and gives off those amazing aesthetic vibes!
