Remember the Mulberry for Target collaboration we told you about? Well, if you were on Gilt.com at 12pm today you may have been one of the people to pick up one of the first bags. If not? Well, they’re all sold out now, but we did grab photos of the preview collection so that you can prepare your shopping list for October.
