Hi friends!
I'm super excited because I just received the satchel that I ordered from the 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target collection. From what I've heard not everyone was able to get what they wanted, so I lucked out by ordering early! I do mean early; I was online at 12 A.M. looking for the collection to go live. I lasted a while on there because first not all the details were on the individual items, then I couldn't decide between the bag that I actually got and a large satchel (which was the one I had eyed before-hand). Just by looking at the models in the pictures I was able to see that the large would be too big to carry around anytime and seemed almost like a weekender bag to me. So, I opted for the medium satchel with the long strap that I can use as a cross body if I choose or carry by the large handles. There was black and brown in this style and right away I knew I wanted the brown! Another thing that I hesitated on was getting another bag which I regretfully chose not to do :( Now, I'm disappointed in that choice because the bag is really great quality....and let's face it when will I be able to buy another Phillip Lim bag at an affordable price again? Needless to say the handbags and I'm sure many other items sold out quite quickly on the Target site. I have spotted a few handbags on e-bay for at least double the price. That's a bit discouraging for me but if you really wanted a handbag and missed out this might be your last chance. In other related comments: I saw online of how someone's order was not able to be fulfilled by Target and she was reimbursed for double the price which she had paid(she got $100 reimbursement)...yay! Target!! Most importantly, Target made their announcement for the new collection for the Spring of 2014 where Peter Pilotto will be the featured designer.I only say that it's more important because Lim's collection is gone! But we will have a chance at picking up some new items from another designer at an affordable price soon!
