Thanks to shopdrop99, I hit the Missoni jackpot this morning & found several items I had wanted, incl the Black & White cardigan!!:yahoo: The store she sent me to had the most stuff I've seen so far -- it was all spread out in each dept, rather than consolidated to one spot like all the other stores I've been to.

In addition to the cardi, they had the long brown striped maxi skirt & it was marked down to $12!!! I hadn't really paid much attention to this skirt before, because I didn't think I could pull off the horizontal stripes, but when I saw it there & saw the price, I tried it on and LOVED it!! They also had the Textured cardigan (like Emma Roberts'), which I recd but returned & then regretted. I know that striped skirt was shown w/that cardigan, but I don't know -- that's a lot of stripes & zig zags, don't you think? So now I'm in search of some Tshirts or sweaters that I can wear with that skirt (if I can find that baby blue or peach, it would be perfect!!)

I also found a pair of the Navy Blue knit pants, which I almost ordered but decided against -- love them!! I was thinking I could wear the long blue cardi w/the pants sometime, but I'm not sure what else I could pair with them. I don't think there was anything else from this line that was meant to wear w/those pants, was there?

They also had the Black & White Sleeveless Sweater/Vest marked down to $7!!:nuts: I bought it, thinking I could wear it w/the Bl&Whi cardi, but it's pretty short. I need to try it on w/the black maxi skirt & see how it looks. Its really pretty tho & looks like it would cost so much more than it did

They had the Bl&Wh cardi in an XL & Medium -- the Med fit, but was slightly smaller than I'd prefer & the XL was big, but if I push the sleeves up, it looks OK (I actually like the longer length of the XL over the shorter length of the Med). I couldn't decide which to get, so I was going to buy both & try it on at home w/a few things to see which I liked better (& then try trading the one I decided against for the Long Zig Zag cardi!), but while I was in line, I noticed that the Med had a hole in the shoulder. I went back to the dept & tried it on again & the hole was pretty noticeable. In addition to the hole, it was sewn really poorly at the shoulder & you could see the white reinforcement. I asked about a discount, thinking that if it were good enough, I would "settle" for it, but they only offered 10% which I didn't think was enough on a $50 sweater w/a noticeable hole like that, so I gave the Med back to the sales girl & told her about the hole (I have a feeling she put it back out on the floor after I walked away)

I picked up a couple of the media boxes & a silk scarf - not sure if I'll keep either, but since I haven't seen either one, I decided to get them & think about it. They had a bedding set that wasn't in the Missoni packaging -- it was a really pretty blue color (I think it was the sham & duvet). It was marked down to $50!! They also had several pullover sweaters, a TON of PJs and a pretty good selection of kids' clothing -- I didn't see any men's stuff (altho shop said she thought she saw a couple of the cardi's last night - the sales girl said they hadn't had any men's stuff since the 1st day)

I'm really happy with what I got -- all I need now is the Zig Zag cardigan and my Missoni quest will be done!!

Thank you so much shop for telling me about that store's location!!:hugs::heart:

I went to target in union, nj and saw a pink cardigan in M size, 1 zigzag dress in L size, and some children clothes and several picture frames. there's also some few women's clothes in the back near the fitting room and when i asked the employee if those were returns she said yes but told me i cannot take a look at those. maybe they put it on hold for someone.

FYI - the TJMax store in Moraga (CA -- a Runway store) had some super cute regular line Missoni pieces today -- I picked up a gorgeous cardi with belt for $250!! They had a super cute dress in black/grey Missoni zigzags with silver thread in it -- I think it was a size 8 and a few more pieces too!

I found the Famiglia long cardi tonight. Yay! So this is definitely my favorite item from the MFT line, by far. If i had to pick a second runner up it would be the blue/multi zigzag dress. The store also had the blue open long cardi too but i couldn't handle the wool in it. I wish they had made it without the wool.

I went through all my items again and decided to return one silky scarf and a purse kit. I still have one silky scarf, but they are kind of a weird size. I still have many items, most of which are accessories.

Tonight at Target I saw five tiles, one bedding set, lots of the flowery plates, neck pillows, floppy hats, lots of the brown long scarf, gloves, good amount of kids clothes, the brown mens' cardigan, and ties.

I have yet to see a throw or any of the knit clutches.

Headed to a few new Targets tomorrow, I received some information that Thursday at close there were some poufs at one of them that were sort of hidden and didn't have Missoni tags, and marked down! So I'm trying to get there for open tomorrow because it's the last thing I REALLY want. I'm going to a few more in that area for good measure because I'll be in the area.

I picked up the famiglia open cardigan as well, so heavy and good quality!

Does anyone have the DPCI code for this top in a M or L? I haven't been able to find it at any Targets I have been to so far. Can I get some advice on the sizing, I tried the blue chiffon mixed media sweater on in a M and L but the L seemed to fit better so I feel for me that one runs a little small, just wondering if this on is the same. Thanks ladies!

I don't have the code but it fits similarly to the mixed media sweater, maybe a tiny bit more loose because the sleeves are less fitted.

there's some geat M Missoni stuff at our TJ's too -- I wonder if you got the same cardigan I put on layaway at my TJMaxx (altho I considered more of a jacket than a cardigan, so maybe it's not the same). I also put a cardigan on layaway that I plan on wearing with my zig zag dress and maybe the panel dress as well (I posted a pic in the modeling thread). They had a dress on display that looked almost exactly like the Blue Zig Zag Dress from the Target line. The biggest difference was the material content. The style and stitching, however, were almost exactly the same!!)

:wtf::faint: Another Zig Zag sweater was found?! And the blue one too? You're so lucky!! That's the one piece that's alluding me -- I think I'm going to go back to the store I was at today on Wednesday and cross my fingers that there are more returns. I've been hoping to find the men's cardigan too, but so far, I haven't seen any men's items

iluvmybags mentioned finding a hole in the black and white "Chanel-esque" cardigan, mine had one too! I ended up returning it and I told them about it, but it was back out on the floor the next time I was there. Definitely look them over.
