Target x Neiman Marcus x 24 Designers

Target announced today that it will be teaming up with Neiman Marcus and 24 American designers for a limited-edition holiday collection.  Partnering with CFDA, the two retail giants are setting out to create a collection of 50+ items for gifting which range from clothing, to home decor, to pet products, to sporting goods and more.  Prices range from $7.99-$499.99 with most items coming in under $60 and will be available in both Target and Neiman Marcus stores (and online) December 1, 2012.

If case you're wondering who the 24 designers are - here they are:  Alice + Olivia, Altuzarra, Band of Outsiders, Brian Atwood, Carolina Herrera, Derek Lam, Diane von Furstenburg, Eddie Borgo, Jason Wu, Judith Leiber, Lela Rose, Marchesa, Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, Philip Crangi, Prabal Gurung, Proenza Schouler, Rag & Bone, Robert Rodriguez, Rodarte, Skaist-Taylor, Thom Browne, Tory Burch and Tracy Reese.

According to Target:
"The designers were given the freedom to explore categories they felt strongly about—some chose to create products that fall in their area of 'expertise,' while others took this as an opportunity to explore an entirely new category. What results is an unforgettable collaboration that we can’t wait for you to see."

CFDA You Can't Fake Fashion Totes

Bow tote by Erin Fetherson

The CFDA in partnership with eBay created 79 different totes customized by America's foremost designers to be sold raise awareness, fight counterfeit goods and celebrate original design within the fashion industry. The totes go on sale on March 20, 2012 at 11am ET on Fashion Vault with all proceeds benefiting the CFDA Foundation. It's incredible to see the variety of designs that were created using the same tote bag as a base.  I've pictured a few of my favorites but to see all bags check out the CFDA's facebook album here. 

Each of the one-of-a-kind totes each customized by CFDA designers  will sell for $200.  If that is too high for your budget there are also four styles of standard totes that you can customize yourself for $45.
