TOLEDO & TARGET




A Target store opening in most cities consist of long lines and shopping carts filled with house hold goods or "Designer Edition" clothing. However, Manhattan's first Target opening today in Harlem is sure to have a different vibe given the fashion sector of NYC and Harlem's rich cultural history.

Target's has created the Harlem Designer Collections, a limited-edition line spanning across various categories and reflecting the vibrant spirit of Harlem. The fashion category is led by designer couple Isabel and Ruben Toledo —
Michelle Obama has worn Isabel's pieces — and includes swimwear, t-shirts, beach towels (my favorite and pictured above), and clothing. Target will donate 5 percent of each product's purchase to Isabel and Ruben's nonprofit of choice, El Museo del Barrio.

Fashionista's, art lovers and beach babes get ready to shop fast as these items are limited edition.


Target + Toldeo = Timeless!
