Orla Kiely for Target Coffee Mugs

Not exactly new news, but thought I'd post a little about how deliberate I am in my purchases. Even down to my mugs. When Orla Kiely announced her collaboration with Target I just about freaked out with joy. This was back in 2009. Today I'm still just as enamored with them. I bought the orange mugs in a set of 4, and brought one to my office to be used as my personal mug. I love the pattern, it's so loud and colorful and honestly it makes me smile. I used it this morning to eat oatmeal. Rather my son's oatmeal that he dislikes the flavor of so much that he spits it out. I mean who on earth refuses delicious apple cinnamon? SMH.
