Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2016 – Handbag Sneak Peek!

I have seen a few of the handbags that will be part of the 2016 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and I’m here to report back!

Let me get the bad news out of the way first: unfortunately, this year there are no Chloe or Burberry bags in the sale.  A total bummer because I always look forward to these!

I do still think there are some bags to get excited about!  Here’s a few of the standouts for me:

3.1 Phillip Lim – Quill bag in both large and small sizes

This came in black but I’m not sure what other colors.

Rebecca Minkoff Vanity Saddle Bag

It’s shown here in this picture in black leather, but the anniversary sale options are in suede. I believe the colors were a camel suede and a burgundy suede.

Rebecca Minkoff Dog Clip Saddle Bag

This one was priced really well at about $120.

In addition to these, I remember seeing an MZ Wallace, a few Tory Burch totes and a wallet, a few Kate Spade bags and wallets and a cute Coach tote.

3.1 Phillip Lim for Target is a huge hit!

The 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target collection launched today and it was a huge hit!  The handbags and accessories sold out very quickly online and I heard that the bags were the first to get cleared out at stores as well.

This video shows how crazy it all got so I’m glad I did my shopping online.  I was refreshing the page over and over waiting for the bags to show up on the site and around 1AM PST, they finally all showed up!

I ordered several styles and I am eagerly awaiting their arrival next week.  Based on my experience last night, I have a few tips for shopping the next big Target designer collaboration.

  1. The collection will launch sometime after midnight online.  Don’t expect the items to instantly show up at midnight!
  2. Check Twitter for the official hashtag.  A few links to items were posted on Twitter before I could find them on the Target site by clicking through the category page (e.g. Handbags).
  3. Target imposed limits on how many items each person was allowed to purchase.  In this case, it was 5 items from the line and 3 of the same item.  So if you’re planning to purchase many items, you’ll need to split your orders up.
  4. Make sure your credit card information on file is correct to help speed up checkout since items can disappear from your cart at any time!

Did you score anything in store or online?  I’ll be sharing photos of what I got next week!

Mark your calendars – 3.1 Phillip Lim is coming to Target on September 15th!

Another Target and designer Phillip Lim are teaming up to put together a 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target collection to be released September 15th!

The collection is for Fall and is comprised of a mostly neutral palette with a few items in bold prints.  There are 100 pieces ranging from $19.99 to $299.99 for apparel and $19.99 to $59.99 for accessories.  The collection includes apparel for men and women, shoes, bags and travel gear.

I just saw the first ad for the collection and it looks like a mini Pashli-like satchel might be coming our way!  This one is priced at $34.99.  I’m *sure* this is one of those items that will sell out instantly.  There is also a larger tote that is similar in silhouette to the Pashli as well, priced at $54.99.
