I'm in Staten Island and the Macy's here had it from May until I think August. But they get stuff at weird times, they JUST got Famiglia in, and its being sold at full price.I'm not-- spiaggia was only released in the West Coast LeSportsac stores and on-line. New Toki print releases in NYC are always 2-3 weeks later than on the West Coast. And don't get me started on the lack of NYC stores that even sell Toki...
I've checked airfare to Hawaii in November ... and resigned myself to getting a Foresta MM or Zucca through eBay or direct from the store. Hawaii ladies, what stores will help with print placement and ship? The LeSportsac Web site doesn't list any locations in Hawaii. PM me please if you don't want to let the lurkers in on your secret spots.
I thought Hawaii stores don't get the Zucca style? Someone else from Hawaii please clue me in?
If Hawaii doesn't usually get Zuccas, then for the re-release is it a safe assumption that we wouldn't get Foresta Zucca, though we may get all the usual styles (Corriere, Caramella, etc.) in Foresta?

I have never seen a denaro or caramella available in Macy's, and never found a mamma mia in any of those stores.
It's weird, but I think it all depends on the buyer for the chain, and maybe even the particular store.
Ooh, okay! I have no idea when Spiagga came out, so I don't know if it was released late in the Macy's by me. And I've only seen denaros and portas in Jersey malls, never in NY.Just to clarify, I'm not disputing the fact that NYC stores have Tokidoki bags, its the timing of when they get the bags in. I used to work in midtown so I would go to Macy's Herald Square quite frequently, and they always got their stock of whatever new print was released 2-3 weeks after Macy's, Nordstrom's, etc. on the West Coast did.
I was also annoyed because the two NYC LSS stores never got any Tokidoki after pirata & adios star, while the West Coast LSS stores, specifically the Beverly Center and Las Vegas, had spiaggia available in store. In NYC, I've only found Tokidoki bags available in Macy's, Bloomingdale's SoHo, Lord & Taylor, and the Virgin Megastore in Times Square (periodically). I have never seen a denaro or caramella available in Macy's, and never found a mamma mia in any of those stores. At least with the LSS store, you get to pick out your own bag, even if you are paying retail price.

Haha, I was bemoaning to DH that Foresta isn't being re-released in the continental US, and his response shocked me: "Well, since you can't see them beforehand, go ahead and order a couple so that you can pick your favorite print placement."
I'll have to remind him of this in November!
