On September 13, one of the most anticipated designer collaborations of Target will finally debut in stores and online:
To say I am excited would be an understatement! I've been waiting for this day to come since Target first announced the collaboration early this year. I love the colorful Missoni prints, but they're so damn expensive! Thank you, Target, for making the prints accessible to all of us.
I've already made a preliminary shopping list based on the preview of the collection available online. Here are my "sure buys":
 |
| Ballet flats, US$29.99 |
Missoni flats in Adora cost about P20,000.00, last time I checked. The Target version will be roughly P1,500.00. I know the quality won't be the same, but it's the print I want so I don't really care!
I can't pass on this adorable folding umbrella...
 |
| Umbrella, US$19.99 |
Or these socks (I want the one on the lower left)...
 |
| Socks, US$6.00 each |
That tiny knit clutch would look great inside my transparent bags:
 |
| Knit clutch, US$22.99 |
So my "sure buys" already cost US$78.97 total. These next items are the ones I'm still thinking through:
 |
| Throw, US$39.99 |
 |
| Extra long scarf, US$24.99 |
 |
| Sleeveless sweater, uS$29.99 |
 |
| Silk headbands, US$14.99 each |
Those are my picks just from the preview items shown online. The collection spans 400 items, from clothing to kitchenware to stationery to furniture...there's even a bicycle! Ubusan na ng pera to!
Those who've been shopping online at Target.com already know that the website accepts non-US issued credit cards, so no need to ask your friends or relatives to buy the goods for you. You can just go online on September 13 and shop to your heart's delight, and have the items shipped to a friend's or relative's address (or to Johnny Air). One last tip though: if you're as desperate to get ahold of the items as I am, make sure to park in front of your computer at 12 am on launch date, beacuse the coveted items are sure to get sold out fast (they do restock, but not right away). I learned this the hard way when Liberty for Target was launched, I logged on later in the day and most of the items I wanted were all sold out already! I will not make the same mistake again :)

The Missoni print is so classy and elegantly distinct. I love it. Will be on the lookout too.
