Lilly Pulitzer for Target

Lilly Pulitzer for Target has finally arrived!  As expected, the launch was CRAZY!  The Target website wasn’t working properly when I tried to log on at 6 AM, which is no surprise given their track history (does anyone remember the Missoni collaboration? Sheer mayhem).

Latte in hand, I arrived at my local Target store at 7:30 AM this morning, and I was already #25 in line.  After scouring through the online look book, I had an idea of my wishlist.  This hammock was at the top of my list.  I love novelty items, and I think it’s just the coolest piece from the collection.  The napkins are too cute, and for $10, how could you go wrong?

Unfortunately, when the doors flung open at 8 AM, the wishlist went out the window pretty quickly.  I panicked when I got inside the store, and I ran to the closest pod, which was the clothing.  Hangers and entire displays were literally getting ripped from the shelves in a matter of seconds.  I grabbed whatever items I could without much thought and headed to the home department.

The item I REALLY wanted was long gone.  A man literally took all 3 hammocks *eye roll*.  Sir, I hope you get ejected from your hammock (just kidding… sort of).  Fortunately, I was able to snag two matching beach chairs, the umbrella, a beach towel, the white and pink clutches, and the beach blanket.

All in all, it was a good day.  Two of my local stores are not open on Sundays, so I’m excited to check out the inventory tomorrow.  Fortunately (probably the only time I’ll ever say that) I’m working a night shift tomorrow, so I can scope out one of the stores while my mom heads to the other.  I’m crossing my fingers and toes that one of us can snag that hammock!  This pineapple dish is too cute too.  It would be a lovely addition to my bar cart.

What items did you snag?  Please share your Target x Lilly stories!
