Summer Target Haul

Happy Monday, everybody!  Today’s post was such a fun one for me!

You know I strive to bring you great style options every post, but I get especially excited when I can bring you great style at a super affordable price, and that’s exactly what I’m doing today with all of my Target finds!

Target is often hit or miss for me.

It was for sure a hit back in February when I did my last full-blown haul.

I tried to do another one since then, but I kept on coming up short. I just hadn’t been able to find enough pieces I liked to feature.

BUT THAT’S NOT A PROBLEM TODAY, LADIES!

Today’s post is chock full of amazing finds that are all perfect for summer! I’m warning you, you’re going to be annoyed that you have to get up out of your chair to grab your credit card, BUT GO AHEAD AND GET UP OUT OF THAT CHAIR. It’s going to be totally worth it. You’re going to be able to grab a great pair of shoes or a great bag for UNDER $40 (maybe less), or you are going to be able to spend about $100 and get an ENTIRE outfit…jewelry and all. AND you’re going to be DARLING.

I’m so sad because this dress recently went from fully stocked to only a smattering of colors and sizes left. When that happens, it’s usually because another influencer posted about it and people went crazy over it.

I mean, I GET IT. It’s so flipping cute.

It’s a seersucker fabric with puff sleeves and a swing fit that’s so cute and flattering. If you’re taller than 5’6″, I think it might be too short for you, so take that into consideration. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. I needed the room in the chest.

Let’s talk about all of the fabulous accessories…

The earrings are Kendra Scott, but I wore them in today’s Target Haul because the white hoops were perfect to style with the rest of the outfit. Do you love the necklaces and the colorful beaded bracelet? Consider today a sneak peek. They are awesome. They won’t be available for a couple more weeks (some friends are working behind the scenes to get them ready), but you are definitely going to want them.

And y’all. This bag. It’s a great medium size, very well made, and OH! SO! CUTE!

This spaghetti strapped smocked dress is absolutely fabulous. AND IT’S ONLY $30.

It’s got a square neck, a smocked/elasticized top, spaghetti straps, and pockets! It looks and feels much more expensive than it is, and I’m thinking it’s a MUST HAVE for a beach vacation. For size reference, I’m wearing an x-small and I’m NOT an x-small, so I would definitely suggest sizing down. (fyi: I’ve also seen influencers much smaller than me in the x-small and it looked great on them too.)

You know me, I threw a denim jacket on top.

I’m in love with the jewelry.

And these chevron sandals are so chic. They come in 5 total colors including black, blue, mustard, and cream. They don’t have any padding or support, but I don’t need that in a shoe, and I fell in love with how these looked. I wouldn’t plan on wearing these to walk long distances, but I wore them to an outdoor party over the weekend and never had any trouble with them. I sized up a 1/2 because they didn’t have my regular size in store, but I think both sizes would be fine.

The earrings are very similar to one of my favorite pairs of Kendra Scott earrings I own, and the charm necklace looks very Madewell-esque.

I first showed y’all this tote back in February, and I’m still obsessed. It has excellent (and near perfect) reviews. It’s large, sturdy, and the beaded handles will have you swooning.

This baby doll top is a great blush shade, and I love the longer sleeves and the babydoll fit. For size reference, I’m wearing a small, but I need a medium in the chest (they just didn’t have a medium in store).

It has pretty little details with the tiers and the lace. It was very wrinkled when I bought it, but a couple of sprays of my Tom and Sheri’s Iron In a Bottle (now available on Amazon!) and it was good to go.

The sunglasses  aren’t Target, but they are under $15 from Amazon.

TARGET MIRROR SELFIES

Okay, now I’ve got tons of mirror selfies for y’all with lots of great new pieces!

But we’re going to start with mirror selfies of all of the outfits you saw above.

This seersucker dress is seriously adorable.

Here’s a good shot of the elasticized bust and the spaghetti straps that you didn’t see in the pictures above. I’m in love with this color. And although the dress is super summery, the denim jacket makes it appropriate for both spring and fall as well. Again, I’m wearing an x-small, so you will definitely want to size down.

A swingy fit and a beautiful blush color? #signmeup

These knotted slide sandals (seen in the outfit above and throughout today’s post) are such a great buy! They look designer, come in 4 colors, and are soooooooooooo incredibly comfy. They are the “blush”, but I think they are more of just a regular neutral. I don’t see them as blush. True to size for me.

Okay, now for some new pieces!

This tie back top only came in this color and black in my store, but there are actually 6 great colors to choose from. It’s 100% cotton, and the body is super soft with a cute gathered neckline. I like that the puff sleeves are a bit more crisp (than the soft cotton bodice) and that there size isn’t overwhelming. There’s also a sweet bow in the back, but it’s not too precious. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

These 5″ shorts aren’t from Target, but they are from Amazon! They are a whole 2″ longer than the must have shorts above, but they don’t make me feel too old. 🙂 And they’ve got Ab-Solution technology!

• Mid rise 5″ Short
• Inseam: 7″ Cuffed to 5″
• 54% Cotton, 25% Rayon, 19% Polyester, 2% Spandex

You’ll see on the model online that these shorts are cuffed twice, but I prefer this pair cuffed once, although the versatility is nice. They are so soft, so comfy, very stretchy, and did I mention comfy? For size reference, I’m wearing my regular size 4.

I mean, are you dying? Because I’m dying. When you click over, it’s going to look like they’re sold out because none of the color boxes look like a stripe. The color box for these looks like a plain “off white”, and they are definitely still available! They are super comfy, easy to walk in, and will have you resort ready in no time. I would recommend sizing up a 1/2 size.

I like this smocked henley and do not agree with the reviews that it’s too short. HOWEVER, there are also lots of reviews saying it shrinks a ton, and since I haven’t washed it, I can’t comment on that. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

This tie front top is very relaxed and boxy, but y’all know I love relaxed and boxy. Haha! People are going to either love or hate this top, but I happen to love it. I’m wearing a small, and it’s obviously still very roomy. It’s not cropped on me, but it’s definitely on the shorter side.

This is the same top, but in black! I styled it with the adorable pull on shorts for a resort ready look. Both the top and the shorts come in several colors.

Again, I’m wearing a small in the top. I wanted to try the matching set with the top that’s the same pattern in the shorts, but they didn’t have one in store.

I’m so sad, but I can’t find this top online. I’m still posting it because I’m hoping one of y’all can find it! It’s the “A New Day” brand, but I had zero luck finding a link. I love it, so I’m hoping one of y’all can pull a Nancy Drew and locate it for all of us.

This utility shirt is a total nod to a Madewell camp shirt. And get this, it’s ONLY $18. EIGHTEEN DOLLARS. It’s a lightweight twill with a relaxed fit and can be worn out or with a half tuck. It’s not cropped, but it’s definitely not long either. For size reference, I’m wearing a small. I love the blush color too (they didn’t have it in my store), and it also comes in a charcoal grey, a deep green, and brown.

Would you like a great linen tee for only $10? Well then this is the tee for you! I love the fit and the stripes, but I do wish it was a softer material. I’m still keeping it because I like the fit so much. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.

The fit of this drawstring dress is a little off for me, so I won’t be wearing it without a jacket. (I’m not totally sure why it didn’t work, but the proportions were just off.) But I’ll definitely be wearing it with a denim jacket thrown on top. The dress is super soft and comfy, has a drawstring waist, and comes in several color choices. For size reference, I’m wearing a small. Maybe a medium would fit me better?

Okay, so this is obviously the same dress as you saw at the beginning of the post, but I styled it a bit differently here. I thought it was crazy cute with the bow sandals. (Remember the necklaces are coming soon.)

This linen tank dress is on the shapeless side, but I still think it’s got a place in some of your closets. If you want to give it a try, size way down. I’m wearing an x-small here, and there’s still lots of room. You need to know that this dress kind of just hangs there, but I think many of you would still like wearing it, especially super casually to the beach. And again, get excited for the necklaces…they are perfect for summer and launching soon!

I’m totally swooning over this swimsuit! Lilac! Ginham! Tie straps! SO CUTE!

Click HERE for all Kona Sol swimsuits. There are some really great ones!

And the last of the new pieces for today, is this flutter sleeve dress. You’ve actually seen this dress before, but you are seeing it in this gorgeous green color for the first time.

This dress is adorable, flirty, and feminine. AND IT HAS POCKETS. #enoughsaid It’s like a gauzy material, so it’s lightweight and quite comfortable. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium here (because they didn’t have a small in this color in store). I prefer the fit of the small on me.

AND Y’ALL. I’m sorry that I keep teasing y’all with these necklaces, but aren’t they so good?!?

Here’s when I showed it in this lilac color…

And this is the red, although this color appears to be sold out at the moment. I’ll keep my eye on it and let you know immediately if they bring this color back.

This tiered dress is wonderfully crinkly and totally precious. For size reference, I’m wearing a small. Which bag do you like it with better?

Do you prefer the similar round rattan bag, or do you prefer the embroidered cross body strap with the LV?

SHOES

And because the shoes in today’s post are all sooooo good, here’s another close up look at all of them.

Okay, y’all!

DID YOU LOVE THIS HAUL?

Because I LOVED this haul.

I FLIPPING LOVE SO MANY OF THE PIECES I FOUND!

I promise that I’ll do Target hauls as often as monthly, if I’m able to find enough pieces to feature.

And what haul would you like to see next? Walmart? J Crew Factory? Anthropologie? (Remember I did an Old Navy mini haul on Friday!) I’ve been seeing some cute things on those sites, so let me know what you are thinking!
