Jason Wu for Target will be sold online and in stores with a collection of scarves and totes.  The designer is also knocking off his signature pet Miss Wu, an owl that graces many of his high end accessories.  In her place comes MiLu, a curious curled up cat.

While nothing is like the real deal, this Jason Wu line is definitely the look for less.  This 53 piece collection inspired by An American in Paris is sure to be a sellout like Missoni, so plan your shopping accordingly.
