If the unseasonably warm weather hasn’t given you a taste for spring, the new Marimekko for Target collection certainly will. Designed with the long Finnish summer days in mind, the bold, bright prints Marimekko is known for have been applied to summer essentials from garden tools and tableware to bathing suits and bags.
The collab is the latest in a long line of successful partnerships for Target. Last year, Lilly Pulitzer pieces flew off shelves, following a tradition set by Missoni, Jason Wu, Phillip Lim and Prabal Gurung.
Want to make sure you're living chic and easy this summer? Grab these can't-miss items that we found at the launch last night (quickly) when they hit stores and Target's website April 17.
Dinnerware
With these fun, mix-and-match plates that look more like stoneware than durable melamine, you’ll find any excuse to grill out.
Caftans
This billowy, multi-purpose caftan makes it effortless to go from poolside to table-side.
Pitcher & Glasses
Both practical and pretty, this resin pitcher with ombre glasses (they stack inside the pitcher for easy storage!) makes serving drinks a breeze.
Pillows and Ottomans
Lounging just got a whole new vibe with these bright, seventies-inspired indoor/outdoor pillows and ottoman.
Paddle and Boogie Boards
For the ultimate summer fun, why not pick up this gorgeous paddle board -- you’ll work your core and look amazing while you’re at it. Not ready to stand up? Surf in on the waves with the equally stylish boogie board.
