Cheap Chic Update: Commes des Gar�ons in Tokyo, Online Lookbook

Filed under: Apparel

The much-anticipated Commes des Garçons collection for H&M hits stores November 13, but if you happen to be in Tokyo, you'll get a five day head start. The name that put the low in high-low fashion is opening a new store in Tokyo November 8 and will start selling the Comme gear that very day.

If you haven't seen it, check out the newly-released online lookbook of the collection. Designer Rei Kawakubo says she's excited about her collaboration with H&M in order to reach "people who may not yet understand Comme des Garçons."

Cheap Chic: Target's Bullseye Bodegas Open Today

Filed under: Apparel, Events

The much-anticipated Target Bullseye Bodegas officially open today at 10 a.m. in four locations throughout Manhattan, offering discerning shoppers a sampling of their cheap chic wares only until September 15th. The bodegas are scattered across the city in Union Square, Midtown, SoHo and the East Village. The mega-chain has culled 22 designers from its stable, including cult shoe gals Sigerson Morrison and handbag guru Anya Hindmarch.

And although the goods are priced to move, getting your hands on anything could prove difficult if last night's preview is any indication. This season's pop-up store exclusivity -- was it ever so good as Colette X Gap and Commes des Garcons at H&M? -- just might trump designer rags this fall.
