20 Affordable Target Products That Exude Real ~Fancy Pants~ Vibes
1.
A colorful cotton hand towel with fun tassels that’ll impress your guests and put a smile on your face every time you dry your hands.
Target
Promising review: “Funky and soft! Love the colors.” —Color Please
Price:Â $8 (available in three designs)
2.
A luxurious lip oil formulated with vitamin E and avocado, sunflower, and jojoba oils to help provide hydration and shine without any stickiness. The sparkly gold stars in the tube and cute packaging are extra perks.
Target
Promising review: “This is by far my favorite lip gloss/lip oil ever. And this is coming from someone who loves lip products and frankly has too many. This lip oil is so plush, and plumping, and shiny like no other. It also lasts for hourssssss! Lip products, especially glosses, hardly ever last more than an hour. I wore this to work one day, and it was still on after six hours. It’s also absolutely gorgeous in person; the pics don’t do it justice. The teeny tiny gold glitters throughout the lip oil and the packaging itself is actually pretty glam. Plus, it smells like vanilla cake. Which is always good. Basically, I think everyone should try this gloss, but then it’s gonna be even harder for me to find the dang thing in stores than it already is.” —AP
Price:Â $18
3.
A pair of fluffy slippers so you can keep your toes warm in the most adorable way possible. The indoor/outdoor soles make them a practical choice, too.
Target
Promising review: “For the price, you can’t beat them. They’re perfect house slippers that keep you comfy cozy all day. I’ve had a pair for almost 7 months and they’re still going strong and I wear them regularly. Just purchased another color and can’t wait to use them, too.” —Agarrison
Price: $15 (available in sizes S–XL and three colors)
4.
A ~marble-lous~ latex-free makeup sponge reviewers say is soft, bouncy, and perfect for blending liquid products. Absolutely stunning — you and this sponge.
Target
Promising review: “I have never tried any of Sonia Kashuk’s products but I decided to grab it and it is so soft! The softest sponge I have ever used, it doesn’t soak up a lot of product either. When damp it gets so huge, and I love it because it covers so much surface space. It’s so much better than the $20 Beauty Blender.” —Kris
Price:Â $7Â for two
5.
An expensive-looking brass flip mirror with a built-in tray that’ll hold some of your favorite accessories and complement the other decorative items on your vanity.
Target
Promising review: “I absolutely LOVE this mirror. It looks amazing in my bathroom. It gives the perfect aesthetic to it. It has a normal side and a zoom side.” —VValentine
Price:Â $24.99 (also available in black)
6.
A set of plaid packing cubes as adorable as the outfits you’ll be stuffing in them. NGL, these are probably the best-looking packing cubes I’ve ever seen *and* they have convenient little handles.
Target
Promising review: “Went on a weekend trip and wanted some packing cubes to keep all my items organized. Just the three cubes were perfect for me to separate my clothes/underwear/etc. The largest size is actually the exact same as my carry-on, so I really like that. Definitely recommend if you want to keep things simple and organized :)” —Bianca
Price: $19.99Â for three
7.
A pair of crystal-embellished mesh Mary Jane flats perfect for parties that involve dancing (because bopping around for hours in heels just doesn’t spark joy). These will also dress up any casual outfit, like your favorite T-shirt and jeans.
Target
Promising review: “Super comfortable and lightweight! It’s like not wearing any shoes!” —CJ
Price: $30 (available in sizes 5–12, two widths, and five colors)
8.
A soft and fluffy leopard-print throw blanket that’ll feel as good on your body as it looks draped over the couch. Chic and cozy? Sign me up.
Target
Promising review: “Our absolute favorite family blanket. It’s super soft and lightweight. It packs a punch for a thin blanket that delivers warmth, but doesn’t take up a lot of room. Comparable to Barefoot Dreams blankets that are well over a hundred dollars!! Will be buying more! Make excellent gifts!!” —Bikinibabe
Price: $30
9.
An expensive-looking (and quiet) tabletop clock that’ll remind you to get to your appointments on time — and also add some retro vibes to your decor.
Target
Promising review: “I really like this clock. The grey with the gold is really nice. The clock looks more expensive than it is. If you want a quiet clock, then this would be perfect for you. I have another analog clock and it ticks pretty loud but this one doesn’t make a sound.” —LorenaSDÂ
Price:Â $14.99
10.
A pearl-embellished claw clip you’ll want to wear in your hair every darn day. Plus, it’ll look so cute attached to your tote bag.
Target
Promising review: “This is a beautiful pearl hair clip that is also very functional. It holds all of my long, thick hair up nicely. This is very cute and I would highly recommend it.” —Mgaffney248
Price:Â $5
11.
A soothing hydrogel face mask designed to fit your face *perfectly* (because it’s actually two pieces instead of one) and stay on while you go about your day. This detoxifying formula only needs 10 minutes to work its magic, so you’ll get that ~post-facial glow~ in no time.
Target
This mask contains volcanic ash to help draw out impurities, aloe vera and bamboo water to help replenish your skin, and shea seedcake extract to help neutralize free radical damage. The two separate pieces ensure you’ll get a perfect fit.Â
Promising review: “I loved how cooling it is on my skin. I have sensitive skin so a lot of the time products burn it and it hurts but this did not do that! I felt so good afterwards and my skin was so soft!” —SierraspectrumÂ
Price:Â $5.99 (also available in brightening, glow, and rejuvenating formulas)
12.
A simple and elegant gold lamp your guests definitely won’t believe you got from Target for $25. For this price, you might as well get a matching pair to achieve peak symmetry.
Target
Promising review: “Absolutely stunning piece of decor! It’s so simple but classy, and the gold adds that extra POP to our living room.” —BeHoang
Price:Â $25
13.
A square-neck cami vest that’s somehow both trendy *and* timeless, especially when you pair it with the matching skirt. A stretchy back panel gives this top a ~tailored~ look while still feeling comfy.
Target
Promising review: “I can’t believe the quality of this beautiful cami vest top! I’ve been eyeing a few like this one from other retailers for more $$. This cami vest is adjustable with functioning buttons.” —affordablebyamanda
Price: $22 (available in sizes XS–4X and two colors)
14.
A pair of marble bookends to neatly display your ever-growing collection of novels. Reviewers say these are weighty enough to keep many books in place — even the heavier hardcover ones.
Target
Promising review: “I was really impressed to receive such quality pieces. They look and feel great, were much heavier than expected, and really are so elegant and modern. Elevates my book nook!” —Chantel
Price:Â $25
15.
A clear crossbody bag that might just be the chicest concert venue-friendly purse I’ve ever seen. The waterproof material also makes a practical option for a day at the beach.
Target
Promising review: “Another reason that A New Day is my go-to purse brand. The clear is festival/concert-friendly, but the details elevate it so that it can go out on the town as well. I love a chain strap with the faux leather strap woven through it for easier use, and I really like that it can quickly go from a crossbody to a shoulder bag. The latch is another great feature, keeping it much more secure than the usual magnetic closure. Get it quickly — I’m sure it will sell out before you know it.” —Sara
Price:Â $30
16.
A lidded stainless steel tumbler designed to keep your marg ice cold for hours so you can sip on it at a leisurely pace. Cheers to warm weather weekends — and happy hours by the pool!
Target
It’s top-rack dishwasher safe, so even cleanup will be a breeze.Â
Promising review: “Wow! I bought four, and these cups perform wonderfully!! In this hot, hot summer, a cold margarita/smoothie/cup of ice cream/fancy drink that STAYS cold as you drink or sip (or eat) from it is a GEM! As we all sipped from our lidded cups from the straw hole, we thought of all the ways we could use the cup to keep things cold. The lid (cover of the straw hole is a whale tail) is great for transporting around the pool or patio and keeping it cool inside. The volume of liquid it holds is substantial, too! I hand-washed mine, but the tag directions say they’re top-rack dishwasher safe. I hope more colors become available! Thanks, Target!” —The Original C
Price:Â $30 (available in three colors)
17.
A tuberose-scented candle so your home always smells ahđź‘Źmađź‘Źzingđź‘Ź. Yes, you can buy yourself flowers, but with this burning, you won’t have to.
Target
Promising review: “This smells EXACTLY like Gucci Bloom — 🥹🥹 in love.” —Tara
Price:Â $5+ (available in two sizes)
18.
A pair of lettuce-edge socks in soft pastel colors to give your sneakers or loafers a totally different look. Reviewers say these work for all seasons — they’re not too thick to wear in warmer months.
Target
Promising review: “These are so cute. I’ve had my eyes on them for a while, and I thought I had lost my chance when they went out of stock. Luckily, there was a restock, and I was able to snag them. I love having several options for socks, a bold color can really pull an outfit together with minimal effort. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for more colors in the future. Great job Target!” —Rue Bee
Price:Â $9 for six pairs (available in three color combos)
19.
A cashmere vanilla-scented body serum stick (infused with magnesium and squalane) that’ll help you relax while hydrating your skin. It may not replace a full day at a spa, but you’ll sure smell like one after applying. Reviewers say this truly does have a calming effect.
Target
Promising review: “I’ve only had this for less than 24 hours and I already know this is a game changer for me! I carry so much tension on my neck/shoulder area and I feel immediate relief after applying this! And it smells so delicious!” —agf99
Price:Â $16.99 (also available in lavender and bergamot cedar scents)
20.
A set of fluffy rose gold brushes for creating a flawless face base, whether you’re in the “no-makeup makeup” mood or want a full glam situation.
Target
The set comes with a buffing brush, a concealing brush, a contouring brush, and a setting brush.Â
Promising review: “These brushes are great for blending your concealer, foundation, and also work really well with the E.l.f. putty blush and contour. They do have like one or two bristles that are longer than the brush but I just snipped them off with some scissors, other than that, they’re really good quality brushes.” —joey
Price: $16.99Â for a four-piece set
