Target Tuesday

I have FINALLY figured out how to take images from Target, so I'm once again joining in on Target Tuesday, hosted by the lovely Tara at fabulous but evil. Here's what it's all about...Missoni. Missoni, Missoni, Missoni. That's all I've been hearing about! If you don't know about Missoni, it's a frah frah, Italian fashion house that decided to lower themselves enough to design a line for the little people that shop at Target, ie: ME. Now, you know me, I LUUUUUVV me some Target. So, I would have eventually (OK, I admit it, I go to Target a couple of times once a week) made it into Target and I definitely might have perused the shelves of the Missoni, to see what a fancy Italian designer was all about. However, that is never to happen. Once the Target opened their doors last Tuesday, everything was snatched up! I kept up a little with all the chaos via the Twitter. Things went so quickly, even the Target website crashed. Not. Kidding. Now, let me show you what some of the fuss is all about...
Passione Sweater Box



Rose Wine Baby Blanket


Zig Zag Beanie



Glass Serve Bowl




Magenta Stripped Rain Boots





Now the thing that cracks me up, is that all these crazies RUSHED into the Target to snatch up some Missoni. Who wouldn't want a piece of something designed by a frah frah, famous designer? But guess what? When we see you walking around town, wearing these VERY obvious trademark fashions, we're pretty much 99.99% sure that you got them at the Target for $39.99. Madrona/Missoni, what's the difference? But, as we know, it has been WELL established on this blog, that I am in no way an expert in fashion.
Wear your Missoni with pride.

I haven't been in Target for some time. I'm out of the loop. I had no idea....(crap)....I missed out on the shopping frenzy last Tuesday.

I personally was not impressed with a lot of the Missoni stuff! But that beanie sure is cute. What's also funny is that people were so crazy about it that they were buying stuff on ebay for real Missoni prices!! Why not just buy the real thing? But then again, if you did, they'd think you got it at Target ;)

Can you believe I don't even like that stuff? I know, terrible huh? Oh well, I guess I was always the odd ball. Really though I think the patterns are just not my taste. I do love Target though :)

haha, I haven't even been there yet but everyone is going crazy!!! It is funny how everyone will end up wearing it but it's still nice to have a piece of something you otherwise couldn't. And by the way... my favorite item there is that bowl!
