My hunt for Missoni

Even though the Missoni for Target line was released awhile back, I never actually got the chance to purchase any of the wonderful items. I was eyeing a few different items but by the time I got to my closest Target it was all sold out, except for a few children's items. And let's be honest, I don't think the kids clothing would look that fabulous on me. And then one day I decided to browse Pinterest and came across this lovely little outfit inspiration.

So I went on the hunt to find this beautiful sweater. I checked my store and had no luck there, and when I asked one of the associates they looked at me like I was nuts. So I went to Target's website and found the sweater...only to find out it was completely sold out in pretty much every size. So what's a girl to do?

Go to Ebay!

So I type in Missoni sweater in my size and low and behold, there it is! It cost a little more than what it did in the store but I decided it was worth it. I read that a lot of people went to Target when Missoni launched and just grabbed as many items as they could, so they could resell it on places like Craigslist and Ebay for twice as much. Luckily for me, the sweater was only marked up an additional $10 over the normal cost. I bought it and a few days later this beauty came in the mail!

And of course my little lovebug is quite the camera lover so she had to be in a few photos...

Gotta love her little teeth =)

Have you ever seen a piece of clothing that you absolutely could not live without, and you had to hunt to find it? I would love to hear your stories! I hope I'm not the only one who gets obsessed with certain items =)
