There was a time when I used to regularly shop for clothing at Target. But over the past few years I’d let them slip off my radar. That all changed recently when I needed to quickly replenish my wardrobe on the cheap to accomodate my postpartum curves, and I’m so glad Tar-Jay is back in my rotation!

This dress (along with the half a dozen others I purchased around the same time) is officially my jam! I paired it with slides and my signature straw hat and dark shades for a casual brunch in the neighborhood and felt so oh-so-chic. I also plan on bringing this little number along with me during my upcoming summer travels.

About the Fit:
This dress fits true-to-size and is made from a lightweight cotton blend with the tiniest hint of stretch. The dress is unlined, and I’m wearing Spanx underneath for a bit of added coverage and to help contain my mom pooch. Unlike most off-the-shoulder dresses I’ve worn, this one stays in place perfectly without me having to constantly adjust it – a HUGE win in my book!

Sometimes the best things in life only cost $17.99…

I recently purchased this dress from H&M and was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved it when it arrived in the mail. As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, it’s hard for me to get out and shop like I used to since having a baby. So I’ve been doing TONS of online shopping as of late. Easy, breezy maxi dresses like these are a lifesaver for me during the summer because they’re so easy to throw on with a pair of sandals and GO!

{ZARA Stripe Shirtdress, PRADA Sunglasses, RALPH LAUREN Bag, G.H. BASS Sneakers}

There’s nothing like a crisp, cool cotton shirtdress for the dog days of summer. They’re a wardrobe staple that never goes out of style. I love how you can dress them up or down with just a simple change of shoes and accessories. I’m a sucker for versions with unique details, like the contrast stripes and handkerchief hemline on the one I’m wearing here.
