As an editor, I know a collection’s good when it starts selling out before I’ve even had the chance to add to cart (and with advance press releases, I really have no excuse). So I wasn’t exactly shocked to see Shea McGee’s new Threshold lighting drop for Target vanish fast (it always hits). But it is flying particularly fast this time, because – in my humble opinion – this lighting lineup might be her best yet.
Much of the credit can be given to its whipstitched borders: a Western-adjacent detail I clocked at a high-end residence during a trip to Mexico City, and have occasionally spotted inside the lobbies of carefully curated boutique hotels. The embellishment is usually stitched in calfskin or crisp linen, but Shea McGee's Target collection has made the look more affordable with a cotton-poly blend. And let me just say: that $20 Empire shade has no business looking this expensive.
