Downtown Aspen

When I say hit your Target, I mean hit your local Target store May 6th, and be there when they open!   I’m serious, mark your calendars because if you can’t make it to Aspen this year to get your fancy Cos Bar products you are in luck! For six weeks starting May 6th the Aspen based spa and beauty company that celebrities love will be offering their products at your local Target store.  Also available on May 6th will be products from Polka Dot Dog Bakery of Boston, The Candy Store of San Francisco, The Webster of Miami and Privet House of Warren, Ct.

This is part of Targets’ brilliant mini-store concept, bringing high end designers and products to us common folk for limited engagements.

A few months ago I found myself at 8:25 am on a Sunday morning zipping through the deserted streets of the commercial area near me.  A woman flew past me and ran the red light I had reluctantly stopped at!

My Jason Wu for Target scores

I had to laugh because I knew exactly where she was heading! Target was opening at 8:30 and the Jason Wu line was about to debut. If, like me, you missed out on the Missoni frenzy when they released that limited edition collection, you would understand why she was willing to fly through a red light for this one.  I screeched into the parking lot as she parked, jumped out of my car and shouted after her  “I knew you were coming here!”  We both laughed and raced through the just opened doors.  Other shoppers were already in the store grabbing at  the racks of Jason Wu.  By 8:45 that morning the racks were nearly picked clean of the designers’ Target collection.  So set your alarm clocks, and wear your track shoes, May 6th could be a crazy morning at Target! See you there!
