Alice Temperley for Target

[iLoveCouture]

I completely forgot that this was out today...thanks for the reminder, I will go see what its like in person tomorrow.

When is it going to be available online? I just can't be bothered to check out the Target in downtown Brooklyn -- they never have anything

^ I'd like to know, too.

I tried on some pieces last night, as Velouria said, horrible quality, even compared to the other collections. Everything was poly or a blend

This may be the first collection since Luella that has disappointed me after the anticipation. While the styling on the press photos gave a mod feel all the stuff I saw was of the frilly Victorian variety. I might have like the short-sleeve blazer it was availble in a neutral color. I also saw a brown leather jacket which was okay but I didn't think it was worth 140.00.

I did end up getting the cute black-and-white striped sleeved sweater. Unless they suprise me with something that wasn't shown in the press photos the long grey cardigan will probably be my only other purchase.

i'm contemplating whether i should run out and check this out this morning...
there is also a kohl's along the same route so i could stop in and check out the vera wang collaboration..

i'll probably go..
at the very least it will get me out of the house

My favorite so far is the ivory jacket above - but I got in a blue - it was the only one. And it's adorable on !

I got it too...I didn't expect it to be so cute on me but I loved it. The rest of the line was ok...if you really love blouses w/ tons of ruffles then this is your collection. I like a bit of ruffles and frill, but some of the blouses just had a bit too much of it for me.

Same for me. There's a Kohl's about 25 minutes away from my house, then a Target five minutes from that. It's all part of this plan to make me spend more money, I swear!

 

[iLoveCouture]

Im glad I am not the only one that went from Kohls to Target in one trip!

 

[guccigal07]

when does it hit online? tomorrow?

This goes to show that the brick and mortar shop can't die. As much as I love online shopping it seems that a lot of collections are really badly misrepresented in photos...

I agree - I picked up the ivory ruffle blouse for $25 but I'm not sure if I'm keeping it. Also got the black bolero jacket with the military buttons and the vest but not sure if I'm keeping those either. The only one for sure is the blue jacket. I can't wait to see the long grey sweater!!

In one of the magazines, it said it's suppose to hit stores on 9/16. But they hit stores a couple of days early. I'm thinking it should be online tomorrow..I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I went today and hit up both places!
definitely glad to hear that I'm not the only one..

i ended up getting 3 things..
i took some pics in the dressing room when i was trying on, so i'll try to post those tomorrow..
i got the grey really ruffly blouse..
(i ended up getting a medium because i felt like the small was too snug when i tried it on.. one of those situations where it feels like it's pulling when you spread your arms out, but the medium felt a little loose when i tried it on when i got home )..
so we'll see what happens with that one..
i might go buy another in size small..

anyway, i also got the short black skirt with the buttons on it
and... big ticket item..
the leather jacket for $140
i felt a little weird buying a leather jacket from target but i liked the color and cut..
works well on my shape and looks cute on me...
will try to take a pic and post tmo

i gave in to the impulse to buy and put it on at home to get a second opinion from my mother..
she liked it and gave me the green light, so to speak
so i didn't feel so guilty about spending such a chunk of my hard-earned money at target and kohl's this weekend

i ended up opening up credit cards at both stores just to get the extra discounts

 

[lazypadawan]

Bah! My Target didn't have it today.

 

[stephanie5486]

i got the cropped jacket in blue today..it's really really cute

 

[pinkpalm]

damnit. still not online. sold out in my target (small-medium wise...) (charlotte of all places!)

 

[spottie]

It's online now. I really don't get this -- Target's Mossimo & Exhilaration lines are much cuter than most of the Go stuff I've seen (IMO). Better quality too!

 

[guccigal07]

I woke up at 7am thinking oh crap its online. I better order.

I always forget and by mid-day the day its posted the good stuff sells.

So I just ordered tons and tons of stuff in Small and Medium because I don't know the sizing.

woohoo. Target if they didn't have the free ship thing said my shipping would be $217.

I would never pay that. good thing for the free shipping.

I am interested to see this!

Don't know if this has already been posted, 10% off code: TCTARGETWELC

It just worked for me when I ordered a few stuff. I stopped by my local target yesterday and they didn't have anything, so I ordered online. I hope the stuff is not as disappointing as others have posted.
