Missoni for Target

As most of you know, Missoni launched a line exclusively for Target today. They have everything from clothes to home-goods and it's all really cute! Plus when else can you have Missoni clothing that doesn't cost a fortune? Fortunately I was able to order online and avoid the craziness of the stores :) From what I hear, woman were standing in line since 6am this morning and by 8:30am everything was completely sold out. And I'm not just talking the Houston Target stores...I've heard this from Dallas, Oklahoma City, Washington DC, Austin, etc. Someone I work with was one of the first in the store and said that women were running through the isles grabbing pieces right and left, throwing elbows and arguing over who saw something first! CRAZIES. Also Target's website crashed for a solid 3 hours. Now that is impressive! I have never seen a designer line come to a retailer and have this effect. Target definitely has a gold mine on their hands!

To make you all jealous, here are the pieces I purchased:
