Target & Gilt Groupe Join Fashionable Forces

Two of our favorite retailers for discounted designer fashions, Target (with those never-ending capsule collections) and Gilt Groupe (and their sweat-inducing flash sales), are teaming up. Starting Friday at noon, three of Target's newest designer collabs—Tucker fashions, Mulberry bags and John Derian decoupage—will be sold exclusively on Gilt.com before they're even available in stores. Get online early, though: The sale will only last through the weekend, with limited merchandise available. If you're too late, you can snap up Tucker's pieces starting September 12th and Mulberry's, October 10th. Until then, we'll be dreaming of a less-pricey-but-equally-chic Alexa-style inspired Mulberry bag (at right).
