Apparently there were lines at nearly every Target and there were fights among women who were trying to steal from other people's carts. I think the cops had to be called in one California Target.This was a picture tweet from someone in California:
And this lady was apparently going to sell this stuff on eBay?
OMG people! There were so many people on the Target website that it literally blew up and has been down ALL day. Luckily, I placed my order at 6 AM and successfully received a confirmation email.Just because I'm extra insane, I decided to hit up a Target store as well and I scored some items that I didn't get online.
Here are the things that I got in store:
I would show you what I got from the website, but ... uhhh, it won't open.I really wanted some of the home stuff, but I am so fashion crazy that I'd rather have clothes than home decor.
I am actually impressed with the quality. I have a real Missoni Poncho and it's very comparable.
So tell me, what'd you get?!?!?!?!

I'm kinda shocked that twitter didn't combust with all of the Missoni related tweets! I'm going to check out our target tonight - I have a feeling that they sold out already though. I love the dress and sweater you bought!
We should all do a link-up about our Missoni finds! I just posted my purchases on my blog-I got the sweater & scarf too! Wish I would have seen the tights, I'm sure they are already sold out at this point...
I went to Target around noon today and there was basically nothing left for women's fashion! Seriously...just like 2 blouses and 3 coats. I was lucky enough to score the ballet flats though! I wonder when they'll re-stock?
I'm with Kate, you should link up! I was there at 8am! I got the same cardi you got. I am so jello, didn't see that black sweater dress. Everything looks awesome on you.
The website was a nightmare! I too scored some stuff online though :)
So fun to see my twitter photo on your blog! It was total madness this morning!
the scarf, coffee mugs, 2 dresses and matching sweater leggings for my daughters, cosmetic bag. I wanted the throw blanket, but my store did not get them. Ugh!!!
I just went to my store and unfortch they had hardly ANYTHING. Typical country bumpkin BS. So pissed we moved here (CT), if I was still in STL I would have torn it up. I managed to get a coffee mug. That's it. I really wanted that cardigan you got! Hopefully the site will be up later and I can get my hands on it.
holy cow! good thing i didn't go to target today during my lunch break it would have been craziness as it looks!
There is no target in my college town (cue the crying from every girl in this town) so when I go home to my dad's small home town there BETTER be some left!!
i was finally able to get through on the website - after most was sold out though. i almost got up early to get on, but i thought i could wait until after i dropped off the toddler at mother's day out....obviously not! i did get a dress (that i'm not sure about) and a makeup bag. the long cardigan you had on was still available but i couldn't decide about...wish i would've ordered it now that you are modeling it! and i wanted that short dress and the "poncho" but they were gone...ugh!
surely they will restock because the line was supposed to be available for like a month or more.
oh and a friend of mine had a woman check out in front of her with over $3000 worth of missoni to resell...people are crazy!
I was impressed with the quality too, I own a few Missoni pieces and the target ones compared well. I got the pumps and the ballet flats plus a zig zag blouse and sweater. Love your dress and long sweater that was long gone at my target:(
Yay cardi twin! Well hopefully - I am also insane because I woke up at 3 AM to shop online PST!! How were the stores near you stocked? I'm pretty sure mine are all cleaned out!
Hi Megan! Like a Missoni Madwoman (and, I admit, kind of a loser) I stayed up till 3:30am pressing refresh on my browser until it finally let me shop online! I ordered the throw, rainboots, 2 home trays, and a picture frame. I got order confirmation but in small print it says "This confirmation is no guarantee the merchandise you ordered will be in stock and ship to you." So basically, fingers crossed until I get an actual package on my doorstep! Total madness!
It sucks, we don't have a Target here in Canada yet :( But I did stock up last year during the re-launch of the designer collection (remember, when the 30 designers collaborated with Target?). The quality was so/so so i'm glad to hear that the Missoni line is worth the hype! From what I see you made some great picks, thanks for sharing!
MISSONI MADNESS!! Thankfully, I just got switched to the night shift at work, so I was up all night re-freshing Target.com. Ended up ordering the brown cardi sweater (that you got in store), and the bikini. On the way home from work at 8am, I just HAD to stop by the store just to see if I needed anything...ended up getting the same pumps and scarf as you got! LOVE EVERYTHING!! xoxo
Those clothes look better than you than they did on the website (the one time I was actually able to get on it today)!
Cute! I especially love the black dress and shoes! I want!
I haven't checked out my Target yet, but I will really soon. The Targets near me usually still have a lot of items left from the designer capsules. I still regret not buying anything from the Rodarte collection. I was preggers at the time and wasn't sure what size to buy. Ugh!
I'm jealous of your sweater dress & scarf!! I got a pair of tights & a cardigan. My Target was almost bare when I went by on my lunch hour.. Crazy!!
The target website was total gridlock. It waited an 1.5 hours to place an order. I was lucky enough to score the long cardigan in your third or fourth picture. I didn't attempt to go to the store, I knew it would be total chaos.
I was up at 6am too like a crazy person. I got a lot of the home stuff and the brown ruana. I jumped back online in the afternoon and got lucky with no crashing, so I picked up some more of the clothes and frames. I can't wait for it all to arrive!!!
I got the same sweater dresses you got and I wanted the long cardigan but they were out already... BOO! I also got a brownish twinset but it is scratchy so I'm not keeping it. Maybe I can sell it on ebay for $500... HA!
So, I was part of this craziness too. Trying to break out of my mom-uniform...
I got the pumps, flats, the ruana, two cardigans - blue zip up one and the black one you got, as well as the black sweater dress that goes with it and another dress. I don't know if I'm in love with it - and I REALLY don't think I can deal with ebay so some of it may go back.
All of this to say... what tights/leggings do you wear? I need to get some good ones for the Fall! :)
love those pumps! I was able to order a cardi and tights online yesterday afternoon. I really wanted a scarf and sweater dress but my local target is sold out!
I don't see what the big deal is about... not a fan. It looks like something my g-ma would wear.
lucky lady!!! i couldnt snag a darn thing!! guess ill be looking on ebay haha.
I wasn't a fan of most of the stuff in the collection and find the Missoni madness on ebay ridiculous! But some of the stuff was cute - I got the pumps (was very pleased with the quality, will have to see if they hold up over time) and two candles in store. Online I purchased the black v-neck sweater and the gold zigzag cardi.
So jealous about all your Missoni finds, I went to both Targets in my area and they were both sold out of pretty much everything! It's seriously insane how fast everything went!
Link to my purchases...and am also expecting a pair of rain boots, two infinity scarves, and the b&w zig-zag tee from my online order:

I love these pictures. I sadly didn't get any of the pieces. I love the shoes and the dresses. That first dress is fabulous. You're so lucky that you got some pieces. :)

I wanted the black and white sweater coat, but alas pretty much all my local target had was the shoes and a couple home items. We got one measly rack of women's clothes, so the pickings were really slim.

Seriously, I can't look at any of your Target purchases. I am having severe withdraws. Love those pumps.
I'm selling stuff on ebay too--why not? But just picked up a comforter online that was recently stocked for my room. I love their home line products. I also purchased the baby blanket on ebay as a gift for someone. I am still super excited about all these products---can't help myself. I wish I bought the file folders. RS
