Wu Watch: Some items are on Target.com for Jason Wu

By  | 

Here at The Recessionista, we literally live in the pursuit of finding fashion for less.  So, let’s just say, I am on “Wu Watch”, the elusive art of placing an order for the Jason Wu Target collection on Target.com.  A few items are now online, see the screen shot above.  When you see the image of the collection on the women’s pages on Target.com or the Jason Wu preview page, hit the red plus symbol or white plus symbol in the circle to try to order. The adorable cat tote and scarf can be found for order on the accessories page.  Click the plus symbols to order.

 I was able to get the sleeveless floral top for $29.99, although the site did hiccup during the order process. Although, I was not able to create a Target account (even though the site encouraged me to do so.)  I tried to order the cat tote, but the item quickly disappeared from my cart after I saved it there as did one of the dresses. Now it seems to be back online, but the cat scarf is not.

I’m posting this for my loyal readers who are jonesing to get some designer fashion for less. Everyone wants the fairy tale of affordable, quality fashion.  I don’t know a thing about the quality here, but I’d rather see you buy it and return it than get ripped off on eBay.  Go ye forth to Target.com and get your Jason Wu before the eBayers get it and inflate the prices.  Good luck and let me know how you do!

    I saw you tweet this and fell in LOVE with the cat tote and cat scarf and went for a looksie… the bag was there, scarf only showed as in store but the zipcode store locator wasn't working. I might have to hit up Target!

    I shopped on-line at about 5:50AM. The cat items were all gone…available in-store only. I did get the black and cream tote, and the striped tote, and they were my top choices!

    It's Missoni mania all over again…the first Target I went to this morning had a line 50 people long before 8am, and when I got to the second store (at 5 past 8) all the Wu was gone 🙁

    I'll be posting a full shopping report on my blog later today.

    I went to the store this morning at 8 AM and it was not too crowded. There were just 7 or so of us lined up outside and all women of different sizes, so I didn't think there would be many fights. Also, for the most part, the women seemed to be buying for themselves or friends, not for Ebay, which I was happy about. I got the cat tote. I have to say, it has some nice details: leather trim, lots of pockets inside and very roomy. I also got the blue flowered skirt. It's pretty nice. I've heard from friends that a lot of the dresses and tops are ill-fitting.

    I wrote all about it on my blog if you want to see here: http://julie999.blogspot.com/2012/02/spring-fashion-discount-edition.html
