Tucker for Target Translation - OR - Apologetic Absence Account


I've been a bad, bad blogger, I know. I haven't posted for two whole days. In my defense, I was running for a very small, local public office and my election was this week (I won!). Between my paycheck proliferating activities, election day and an (obscenely little) amount of sleep, I just didn't get the blog posts up. But here I am for your Friday afternoon, don't-want-to-work web surfing time!


Today I bring you...the dress. This dress was part of the Go International Collection for Target by Tucker (Gaby Basora) and it is so, so popular. I have seen this dress in a number of blogs (here, here, here, here, here)  - probably because it is universally flattering and has a lovely print.


One of the things I love about fashion blogs is seeing all the different ways people can wear the same thing; in a world of mass consumerism, it is wonderful to see how we can take the same items and personalize them with individual points of view!


Yellow sheath dress: Modcloth
Floral dress: Tucker for Target

    Whoa. This dress is amazing! I LOOOOOOOOVE that you did double-dress action and belted the print over the yellow. Frantically reaching for wallet to order printed dress... eek!

    @Mrs. G
    If they are out of your size at Target, check eBay! I bet there will be a ton available.

    Congratulations on winning the election! I totally agree with you on seeing how different people can style the same outfit. That's why I enjoy personal style blogs so much! For inspiration for my own outfits!

    @Shasie Thanks Shasie! It was an exciting day and I can't believe it was a week ago - or that I am just now getting caught up :) Isn't it amazing how much inspiration we pull from each other?

    I have not seen anyone style this dress in that way! I was blown away when I saw it - you put such a fun, unique spin on it! Good girl for breaking out of the mold :)
