I ended up returning my brown zigzag cardigan a couple days ago. Now all I have is a skirt and rainboots. I'm happy with what I have for now, although I'd still like more, lol!
 
I've been going to the 8 Targets between my house and my work very regularly these last few weeks, and I'm finding gems here and there. Again, please PM me your requests for scouring of certain items. I log onto tpf maybe every few days and will miss your post, considering how fast this thread moves. I got a lot of requests for lookouts for clothing in XS or S, and I'm seeing hardly any. Almost every piece of clothing I see is L or XL.

One Target near my house had a lot of the zigzag travel totes, but I couldn't bring myself to pay $50 for one. It was made of PVC, and a tote of the same quality at the same store would cost $15.

I had no luck with finding the blue maxi dress in my size. I'm normally a size 2, and though the M I have isn't falling off me, it does sorta make me look like I'm swimming in it. But I know that it's next to impossible (if not impossible) to find a S or XS. I don't know if it's worth it to spend for the alterations. If anyone has had their Missoni dresses taken in, about how much have you paid?

I don't know why, but I haven't worn any of my Missoni for Target clothing yet. I'm thinking of waiting until the line is completely out of the stores to break them in. I did that with the Proenza Schouler and Rodarte and H&M for CDG pieces, too. That's just me, I guess.

I've also been checking out ebay just to see what pieces are selling for, and I'm noticing that no one's really bidding anymore, even on items with reasonable markups.

you returned a zig zag cardigan?! I wish someone around here would return one!! That's the one item I can't find anywhere and ebay prices are still too high for me (I refuse to pay almost 2x the original price!) I also wouldn't mind finding a black cardigan, but I'm having serious doubts that there are many returns of either - I think a lot of people are deciding to sell those items on ebay or craigs list rather than return them

I haven't worn any of this clothing yet either--partly because I am still hoping to find a better fit for some items (hoping to return them when I find my exact size).

I hadn't seen anyone wearing them in my area until last night. I went into NM and a lady was wearing the long blue cardi that matches the maxi dress--but she was wearing it with skinny jeans and a dark shirt. She looked good in it. :smile1:

I'm kind of glad the bidding has slowed down on ebay. I agree with the others on this...I'm not against anyone making a profit for their time, etc. to find things to sell on ebay. But in this case, the reason people are having to resort to ebay is because some of these sellers hoarded the stuff just to mark it up and make a big profit. If they hadn't done that, many more poeple would have been able to get the items in their local stores or would have received their online orders. It just irks me to have to pay almost double what I would have if my order had been filled AND to not have the option to return it to the store (if I don't like it since I didn't even get to see it in person first) because of all this hoarding for resale.

When I see how many things aren't selling, I'm wondering if even more returns will be available in around 90 days when the return period is over. Maybe then another set of resellers will grab the items on clearance, and we'll be able to get them at a fair price on ebay. :D
 
I am going to return the Ruana and the purple zigzag tote

the Ruana I put on and my dd commented that I look like her middle school head of school...let's just say not a good thing, plus I am 5'4" and it looks huge on me - like I wrapped a blanket around myself and walked out the door

I found the tote in brown with a outside pocket and like it better than the purple one, plus I do not need 2 totes from this line, so back that will go
 
I went to target on wednesday and I bought the brown and black zig zag sweater. I'm contemplating about keeping it because it is a little big. It matches the black panel dress and it looks cute together. I'm still looking for the cardigan that emma roberts wore. I hope I find it! I also bought a scarf to match the hat that i bought.

So as of now, this is what i have..

Maxi dress
romper
blue and pink short sleeve dress
black panel dress
famiglia sweater
scarf
hat
flats
black and white vest
babydoll set
cami
vase
blue zigzag skirt
black and white tankini
striped skirt

i think thats all i have. i might have missed something.
 
I had not planned to buy anything from this collection until I saw you ladies post such great pictures... I went by my local Target today, and I was surprised to find several items in my size. And then I made the mistake of wandering by the home section and fell in love with one of the comforter sets. I'll post pics of the clothes in the modeling thread, but here's the comforter:

The set came with a matching cloth bag, so I'm thinking about making it into a couple of throw pillows or a throw pillow and curtain sashes.

Someday681 - If I had not seen your comforter picture (lovely thank you!!) I might have passed up an obvious return at my Target today. It looks so pretty.. I took her home. Can't wait to try it out.

Thank you for sharing and I like the idea of a matching pillow! Genius!

I returned my Ruana as well. I'm 5'2" and I'm swimming in it. :p

I haven't worn any of mine either. I want to wait till the hype dies down. Part of my thinking is the fact that currently, this line has received so much publicity that I wouldn't want to get stared at (positively or negatively...). I might just wait till I go on vacation this November, and wear them in a foreign country to break them in :p..

I haven't worn mine either. I want to unveil them a little at a time and mix them in with what I currently own so that it doesn't look all "matchy matchy."

But then I might just say WTH :devil: - go ahead and wear it...depends on my mood! :p

:nuts::faint: you found the zig zag cardigan?

oh man, how come no one's returning them around here??

I have the paneled dress to and that's the whole reason I want it (too cold here to wear that dress by itself and a plain black sweater seems so boring!!)
 
I returned my Ruana as well. I'm 5'2" and I'm swimming in it. :p

and it's also $49.99 and I need to love it for that price!

I just did a Marshall's thing with the Ruana, buy and then think about it later because it will not be there if you think about it!

I live in Miami so all that are looking it Miami, I will more than likely be returning it to the Dadeland store and more than likely on monday, hate shoppping on the weekend too crazy
