Orla Kiely collection for Target TODAY!

[decodelighted]

The goods should be in stores as early as TODAY!!! BAH!!! I can''t get my husband out the door. Might have to go alone! So much for my "no spending at all in Feb" idea.

I''ve been digging her stuff for YEARS now but its usually so expensive. My sweet DH gave me an OK wallet for Xmas, which is the only thing I currently own. Let me at them (those) $2.95 pot holders.

More adorable pix & info here. Will it make my hair red? Will it make me Irish?

You might want to call before you go, none of my local Targets even knew what I was talking about when I called this morning.

 

[Skippy123]

I love the colors; I will have to look the next time I am at Target! I want the apron!

 

[indypitty]

I just got back from Target and saw this stuff... sooooo cute! I was strictly there to buy groceries, though. Maybe next time!

 

[missjaxon]

Aww I am so jealous....we don''t have a target here.

Enjoy your shopping and I hope you share anything you get so I can live vicariously through you!

GAH!!! Not there yet! And, like Neatfreak said ... neither store knew what I was talking about when I asked WHEN they'd be on sale. One gal offered to look into it & call me back though so here's hoping.

I see stuff listed on ebay already so SOMEBODY is getting them. Grrrrrrr.


ETA:

I see it made the New York Times

And Vogue.com ... but the Target peeps are CLUEless about it. *sigh*

I looked online and they''re not there, yet.

I love ALL those colors!

I saw this at Target today! I had no idea what it was and didn''t really stop since I was on a mission...so Deco, if you''re in the neighborhood of Iowa...

Aw thanks, Elmorton ... if ONLY!! I''d have 1/2 a mind to scoop stuff up & sell it on Ebay. The quantities nationwide are supposedly limited & I imagine they''ll go quickly.

 

[violet02]

Ooh I must check it out! I''m supposed to go by there tomorrow to drop off prescriptions!

 

[AmberGretchen]

I''ll have to check it out too - that stuff looks super cute!

 

[redfaerythinker]

OMG I"M IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! will go and try my super target tomorrow.

 

[oobiecoo]

Not available at Target.com that I could find either and I''m sure our local Target doesn''t have anything since they are closing... *sigh*.

For anyone who has/does find items... post whether it was at a regular or Super Target!

 

[Elmorton]

Oobie, mine had them and it''s a super.

Ditto!

Too bad it''s not online.

 

[Skippy123]

Bummer, my Target doesn''t carry it!

**** VICTORY ****

Had to go to a Target 45 min from my house, but FINALLY ... I have ORLA! Didn't go crazy (as I feared I might). Just got the brown hanging sweater shelvie thingie & the over the door cr*pola organizer. Which I'm hoping to implement today in a cabin-fever clothing/closet/drawer reorganization.

I feel lucky that the colors don't really go with our kitchen/bathroom schemes -- as I would have been a lot more tempted. And was a bit disappointed with the fit of the canister lids -- so passed on that lusted after item too. This Target didn't have the apron or dish rag/pot holder type stuff in yet & was sold out of the laundry bag I want ... so I can't say, for sure, my Orla frenzy is over. But thought I'd update on GETTING THE GOODS!!!!



ETA: Just noticed that Target.com is now stocking 31 items (though a few are sold out already). Squee!

Deco, my Target has her stuff. REALLY cute. I resisted. They had both items you want. I actually thought "too bad I don''t have Deco''s address to send these to her" Haha!

That is SO SWEET, TE-R! Somehow, someway my *sister* was thinking the same thing! She called from *her* Target today and walked around describing what they had. Two laundry bags & an apron are heading my way from the DC area

That''ll probably do me Orla-wise. THANKS for thinking of me!

 

[Tacori E-ring]

Haha...no problem Deco! I would have no use for a laundry bag and I am not much of a cook. I really liked her plastic (?) place mats. They are so thick and look like it would take A LOT to destroy!

The problem is that her normal stuff is MUCH MUCH more expensive than her Target line!

Deco, I am glad you found it! I did too, but still couldn''t find the potholders and aprons. Darn!

 

[redfaerythinker]

I Found out today that some targets are getting stuff a little at a time. So if your target didn''t have them they might have them by the end of the week!
