Whew, it’s been a whirlwind of a weekend!  If you follow my Instagram stories, you probably saw that we took the kids on a weekend camping trip to Ray Roberts Lake State Park.  It was an action-packed couple of days and I’m super excited to share all the details with you all in a blog post later this week — stay tuned especially if you’re curious about newbie camping in Texas with kids cause I got tons of tips!  But in the meantime, I’ll be taking a load off my feet while I’m coding away at work cause I’m still recovering from walking over 24k steps on Saturday… 😆

Meanwhile there’s no better way to start the week than with a Target sale!  Target recently collaborated with a 3 rising fashion designers — Christopher John Rogers, ALEXIS, and RIXO — and released a Designer Dress Collection for spring 2021.  My current favorite is a Christopher John Rogers floral maxi dress that I love wearing!  Overall, the styles for all of these designers are absolutely amazing as they have bold, bright patterns and statement silhouettes that will definitely catch your attention!  Best part though is that prices are still affordably marked at $40 – $60, but heads up cause pieces just all went on sale this week!

Christopher John Rogers x Target

This gorgeous dress instantly caught my eye and I absolutely fell in love with the gorgeous print.  Hanging on the rack, the dress looks a bit intimidating with its voluminous layers, but when worn, the material actually has a beautiful simplistic drape that is surprisingly sleek and elegant.  I absolutely love the way this dress skims the body, while finally ending with a layered ruffle hemline.  If I’m being honest, this is one dress that kinda made me feel statuesque — the fabric is a medium weight that actually holds it’s structure pretty well while the puff sleeves give it such a statement wow factor!

Did I mention this dress has pockets??  The additional workmanship is always in the details and I absolutely LOVE that this dress really thought of everything!  I then paired this dress with comfortable platform espadrille wedges — love that the shoes gave me a solid 4 1/2″ of height while still being easy to walk in!
