Target Maxi Dress Find

Every season I manage to find a few good clothing finds at my local Target.  This season a maxi dress caught my eye.  I first saw it on my friend in a solid grey color, and it looked so cute on her (shout out to Heidi)!  I went online to see if it came in any other colors so I wouldn't be blatantly copying Heidi's cute find, and found that they also came in a few striped options.  I decided to give this one a try...I mean for only $29.99 how can you afford not to?

I wasn't sure whether to order a size X-Small or Small but when I looked to see what was available, all they had was a Small so that made the decision easy.  Once I received it, I found the fit to be good.  The bust would probably be a little more fitted in the X-Small but overall the Small was fine.  I'm actually glad I got the Small because I fear the X-Small would have been too short.  The one I ordered was about as short as I'd want it.  

A few days after receiving the dress I ran into my friend Heidi at swim team practice and guess what dress she had on...this one!  Great minds think alike!  I mean, can you blame her?  It's so darn cute and when you find a good thing, you buy multiples, am I right?!!  I sure do!  She styled the striped one just how I planned to...with a cute red cardi and sandals.  She once again looked fab!  So this past weekend when my son was invited to a pool party, I pulled out my new maxi dress to wear:


Original Polyvore set for this look can be found HERE

I noticed this morning that the striped version I purchased is pretty well stocked online in most sizes, but the other colorways are either sold out or available in limited stock in a few sizes.  I'd check your local store if you don't see what you want online!  

Are you maxi dress obsessed like me lately?  I can't help it...they're just so cute and comfy!  

Hope you have a great day!

  5. I went to order it online and the XS was sold out and worried the small would be too long for me. I do love a cute Maxi dress/skirt and figured if I buy them here they are never too long :)
