Libertine for Target purchases

honey · Gucci

my target had some of the stuff in stock on sat. i actually liked it more than i expected to. i am getting the tee, and the shirt you purchased, though the shirt seemed a bit sheer on first inspection. didn't see the dress or tie neck blouse.

I want the tee, but I'll have to order it online since they were already sold out in my size at the local Target. cry

I can't believe it won't ship for 2-6 weeks!

ViViDogWear · Kate Spade

I just went to my Target and they had some stuff, but all the larger sizes were gone. That's when I realized why. I could barely put on the size 5 dress and it got stuck! I usually wear a 4 so it was really too tight. Same with the pants and shorts.

Just from looking at various Libertine items, I could tell it runs small. For Proenza Schouler and Patrick Robinson I could wear size XL with a roomy fit. Libertine XL looked like it would be skin tight.

I just ordered this online b/c they didn't have XL in store, but I'm guessing it will be too small. Love the graphic though.

I stopped by the Target closest to me in hopes of trying on some stuff, but there was no Libertine in sight. I think I may have to just order online.

I saw that black dress at Target. It looked cute from afar, but it looked and felt very polyester... if you know what I mean. I like this collection alot -- especially the blue whale/skull shorts.

z4, I saw that shirt in store (size L) and it looked like it ran a bit big - I don't know if certain items run small and others large... You think they could have consistent sizing from one collection to the next!

I may have to order online too. I was to three Targets this weekend (looking for a chair)and none the Targets near me had it.
I love that T-shirt with the tree on it.

I just bought the dress today too! It looked cuter on than in that picture.

XtinaStyles · Marc Jacobs

the dress is adorable, how does it run? did you take your regular size?

Maddie · Coach

I took my regular size, but it's been a while since I bought anything and my weight has fluctuated so I'm not entirely sure what my regular size is.

i think it is pretty tts, but smaller in the bust. i tried on the 9 and 11. both fit, but the 9 was snug in the bust. the 11 is a little blousier on me, but i think it still looks nice. (i am normally an 8 or 10)

Mine had a few things. Everything was so huge! A few reviews:

Libertine Keyhole Woven Top with Back Print - Moon Pink

Huge, very sheer, and ill fitting.

Libertine Cardigan Sweater - Admiral Blue/ Patio Green

This sweater is so cute! They didn't have xs left and the small was too big.

Libertine Voile Woven Shirt - Ebony

My Target had this in white. It was large everywhere but the back.

MissPadme · Nine West

I got the bucket hat and the "cornucopia" print scarf. I really, really wanted the cornucopia print shirt but only one Target out of the four I visited had it, and it was only one in XS (I needed XL). So I ordered it online.

The hat and the scarf are awesome.

Kitty · Hermes

I went to Target today to look at the stuff and I thought it was all really crappy. I didn't like a single thing!!

Kelly · Hermes

wow, I haven't been to Target in forever but I LOVE that t-shirt....I'll have to stop by soon!

Working in Charlotte this week and the Target here still had a lot. I got the dress and it was TTS for me, although it is snug in the breast/shoulder area it reminds me of a vintage dress cut. I really like it! I will say it was shorter on me than the model but they didn't have the next size up so I didn't get to try it for length.

I didn't like the pink shirt on and it was very sheer. I LOVE the tshirt and it's huge. I got a M and usually in the little target tshirts I get a L. I also got the gray tank with the bird on it. I wish I would have seen the scarves!

I went to another Target last night and got the cornucopia-print blouse. Here it is on the model and on me.

I tried on the black dress and got stuck in it. ashamed

The largest they had was a size 13. I held it up to me and it seemed like I could get it on, although it would probably be to snug to buy. When I tried it on the bust was too tight, but when I pulled it over my head to take it off I got stuck in the shoulder area. I tugged and tugged but it wasn't budging. Finally I just had to yank it off with the possibility of it ripping or something. I almost threw my back out, lol. I got it off alright, but boy was it a struggle!
