Merry Christmas to me...whaaattt
I finally got my Rodarte for Target in the mail. When I mean finally, I mean four days after I ordered the clothing online, the package came in the mail as promised.

If anyone is awake at this hour...
Rodarte for Target is now available online. Expect most of the collection to sell out. There are some pretty floral prints and racy, lacey swimsuits that were not previously in the look book. Click here for the madness. Also, for 10% of your order (or any order on target.com) use this promo code: A2VBT487.
HAH, I guess it pays to watch Best of Will Ferrell on a Saturday night/Sunday morning.
