HI LADIES!!! SO MY FAMILY AND I WENT TO OUR LOCAL MALL THIS WEEKEND AND LOW AND BEHOLD, DILLARD'S WAS HAVING A CRAZY SALE! AT FIRST I DIDN'T REALIZE WHAT WAS GOING ON BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN SLEEPING ON DILLARD'S FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS. I USED TO HIT IT UP ALL OF THE TIME AND GET GREAT DEALS, BUT FOR SOME REASON I KINDA FORGOT ABOUT DILLARD'S SALES...SO ANYWAYS, I WAS GETTING BORED WHILE WAITING FOR MY HUBBY TO LOOK THRU THE MENS' DEPARTMENT AND DECIDED TO TAKE MY BOYS UPSTAIRS AND SEE WHAT THEY HAD ON SALE IN THE WOMENS'.

ONCE I REALIZED THAT THE ALREADY MARKED DOWN PRICES WERE AN EXTRA 40% OFF IT WAS ON! I FOUND SOME GREAT ITEMS FOR MY RETURN BACK TO WORK IN THE NIC OF TIME, BEING AS I WILL BE BACK TO WORK IN 1 WEEK AND HAVE TO LOOSE 20 MORE LBS TO BE BACK A MY PRE-BABY WEIGHT, SO YOU CAN SEE HOW I AM NEEDING MORE CLOTHES TO HOLD ME OVER. SO ENUF RAMBLE AND ON TO THE DEALS....

SO FOUR 4 GREAT DRESSES AND 2 GORGEOUS TOPS I PAID $108.79 AND 8.98 OF THAT WAS TAX PUTTING THE ACTUAL PRICE FOR CLOTHING JUST UNDER $100 AT $99.81. I THOUGHT I DID PRETTY GOOD CONSIDERING ONE OF MY PURCHASES ALONE (PURPLE MAXI DRESS) WOULD HAVE COST THAT MUCH IF I HAD NOT PURCHASED THESE ITEMS ON SALE! THE ONLY DISAPPOINTMENT WAS THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY OF MY SHOE CHOICES IN MY SIZE :( I WILL POST HOW I ACCESSORIES THESE OPTIONS IN UPCOMING OOTD VIDS.

LET'S GO SHOPPING: TARGET

So today a friend of mine came in town for a quick visit and we decided to hit up target for a little shopping! I will be returning to work in two weeks and wanted to grab a few dresses that I can wear while trying to shed the rest of my "baby weight". It was REALLY hard to stay focused and ONLY buy dresses, especially since the whole store was on sale, or so it seemed. But here are the items I chose to try on and what I thought about them....





The true color of this dress is not showing in the picture, but it was a beautiful orange color, great fit and style! The only thing is that it is a little short for the office. So I regretfully left it at the store : ( If I was not trying to shop specifically for work, it would have been a definite buy!




This basic black dress can be reinvented over and over with great accessories. To make it work appropriate I would definitely have to add a cami to cover the plunging neckline. However, I decided at the last minute not to buy it, but now that I'm reviewing the pictures, I may go back and see if they still have my size tomorrow.




NOT a winner. Although I really like the colors on this dress, it was WAY to casual, it looked more like a swimsuit cover up than a dress to wear out. So I left it at the store as well, with no regret.




FAVE! I LOVE this dress. The fit was great, the pattern and colors are beautiful, I knew immediately that this beauty was coming home with me! I plan to purchase a 3/4 sleeve black blazer to dress it up a bit and very simple t-strap style flat sandal to make it more work appropriate.




FAVE #2. IDK what it is, but I have been so drawn to neutral stripes lately. So naturally I was attracted to this dress. I also liked that it was fitted at the top and flowed away from my body just before reaching my "trouble zone". I plan to accessorize this dress with the same blazer and sandals that I will be purchasing for my other FAVE dress. So what do you guys think? Been to Target lately? What kind of great deals have you found?
