Victoria Beckham's Garden Party with Target...with Jessica Alba, Mara Rooney, & Zoe Saldana.

By Laura Medina

The day has come, another Target soiree.

This time, just in time to for the West Coast launch for Victoria Beckham for Target collection.

She and they...and a mermaid took over a Bel Air mansion with a pop-up shop, English hard candies hanging off tree branches, and a crafting table.

The West Coast socialites are A-List actresses: Jessica Alba, Zoe Saldana, and Mara Rooney, Camilla Belle, and Jordana Brewster...

Victoria Beckham's "Dream Afternoon Tea" party was a dream English Garden Cocktail party on steroids, talking about humongous topiary...

Since it's very ladylike, the afternoon tea was very portion-controlled finger sandwiches and English hard candies, that fit neatly into kids' and ladies' fingers and hands, and a plenty of refreshing tea cocktails to hydrate. No mega-portions here...

All enjoying getting on the preemptive jump on shopping Victoria's collection before it hits the masses next Sunday, on April the 9th...

Ain't a pop-up shop unless there are cash registers...

For those who missed out entirely on Target's Lilly Pultizer Collection that sold out in a nanosecond, because you were too busy and too buzzed partying during Coachella, don't feel bad.

Victoria Beckham's Target Collection is a juicy burst of orange and lemon-y marigold. 

Retro Floral Tie Waist Romper http://www.target.com/p/women-s-retro-floral-tie-waist-romper-victoria-beckham-for-target/-/A-51673232 and the Orange Scallop Tie Waist Romper http://www.target.com/p/women-s-orange-scallop-tie-waist-romper-victoria-beckham-for-target/-/A-51672771 are sassy and airy enough to go party in the desert during Coachella or stay around longer, when you want to hang on among the preppier natives of Palm Springs.  Remember, Palm Springs is home to Mid-Century Modern Style, popularized by "Mad Men."

Speaking of the Pop Floral swatch, http://www.target.com/c/pop-floral-collection/-/N-qxfuy?lnk=popfloral, it's reminiscent of Lilly Pultizer's quasi-psychedelic, preppy paisley splashes.  It's form following function. Lilly used that pattern to hide orange spills on her shift dresses and tunics, while she was still running her freshly-squeezed juice stand.

Victoria's Pop Floral swatch comes in handy, when you spill cocktails and juices at Coachella and the following Summer soirees.

Victoria Beckham x Target is a soupcon or a pop of juicy citrus when you're thirsty for it, the most.
