Two things about this post: my lighting sucks and it's officially fall because by 7 pm it was too dark to put this new beauty on and take photos outside.  So these pics will have to do for now.  

But as you can see this is my newest dress from **drumroll please** Target!! Target is really kicking it up a notch with their clothing.  And with how much I purchase from there, I really should be an official spokeswoman.  But I digress. 

This dress i picked up has a sister in a lighter cream version, but this darker gray version just spoke to me.  She's super girly with the sleeves of flowers, but with the exposed zipper and sharper details hidden within the darkness of the dress gives it a slight masculine edge.  This dress will be perfect once the temperature finally falls and I can wear it with tights and ankle booties.  If only that cold weather would get here faster!

I picked up some new dresses from Target that have been catching my eye.  I had been stalking this white lace with lime green lining for quite some time.  I liked the one with the orange lining and the white lining, but red hair doesn't mess well with orange clothing.  

I also spotted this lovely little stripped number that is going to be great for fall.  I can still wear it now, since they like to blast the air at work, but i'm thinking this will look especially cute shortened about 3 inches & with ankle boots.  Possible the lace up boots I saw at Nordstrom with killer studs.  But it will also look great with a sleek pair of black patent stilettos.  There's also some floral skinny jeans & super frayed skinnies at Target too, but those will have to wait until they carry something other than a size 1 or 17.  I am neither!

       Well, actually, i'm not even a bridesmaid, but ya know.  It's starting to feel that way.  Especially since I just got ANOTHER "Save the Date" card.  When is it my turn?? Though I haven't quite found the right groom {yet ;)}.  

       On Friday, I was on a mad hunt for a dress for a dressy, yet comfy wedding that's coming up.  After trying on half a dozen dresses at H&M, to no avail, I hopped on over, well walked down the stairs, to Zara's.  I'd been there before, but never really found anything that screamed buy me! (that i could at least afford, cause trust me, I have found plenty of items i can NOT legally afford)  I did try on a few dresses and 1 XXL leopard print button up.  I have big boobs & thought MAYBE juuuust maybe it would fit- yeah no. TOOO big.  {Insert sad face here}  The one dress I really wanted kind-of didn't fit, but I wanted it just 1 size larger.  No one wants to see my VPL.  However, I did find this gorgeous cobalt/navy blue dress with an amazing plaited necklace.  How hot is this?  I hope it looks this good on me! I wanted to find the perfect yellow shoes, but was able to find a pair of nude strapy heels from Target that didn't take any attention away from the dresses neckline.  Gorgeous right?  More pics to come of that fringe in action!  Stay tuned!
