Walmart just got in on the game...with Norma Kamali

Just as Target is picking up speed with its designer collabs (and draining my pocket) other retailers have decided to follow suit. We all know Comme Des Garcons will have a line at H&M next month, but really, it's the retailers with that convenient online shopping that get me. I mean, I love Rei Kawakubo, but will I camp out from the wee hours of the night and physically elbow another girl for a pair of pants? no. Will I impulsively buy a Norma Kamali piece for $15 at midnight on the internet? yes.  I have a lot less will-power when tired and cozy in my PJ's.
I love Norma Kamali's avant guarde take on sweat gear. And one day I hope to own one of her famous sleepingbag coats, but for now I will please myself with a couple tidbits from her line at Wal-mart. So far the most affordable designer capsule line I have seen to date. Trust Wal-mart to undercut everyone. That is why they are taking over our small towns, I guess.
