I had little hope for this dress when I bought it. That sounds bad but it's true. The top is a bit too drapey for what God has blessed me with and it is as sheer as the sun is bright. But it was $20 and it was olive green. Two things that I have trouble saying no to. (If it would have been handed to me by toddler twins in matching outfits, I would have bought 5 of them.) But I've been pleasantly surprised by how much I like it. I love when this happens. 

I can also say the same for this belt that I purchased for $4, which was a bit of a splurge for a thrifted belt. But you guys, this belt has sequins AND velcro. If that doesn't spell out high fashion, I don't know what does. 

PS -- My nail polish is Revlon Top Speed in #405 Peachy.

That's right. My post title is code for "I love you." Or "I love shoes." Whatever your preference. 

I highly recommend this dress if you have $24, a smidgen of good taste and some common sense. Target is getting good with their Anthropologie knock-offs. I swear I tried on a similar dress at Anthropologie a few months back and then walked away from it as it was over my budget. Next thing you know I'm trying on this dress at Target and saving $400. Okay the Anthropologie dress wasn't really $400, but it makes my story so much better. So pretend with me, okay?
