Hi friends and happy Monday! I hope you had a lovely Easter yesterday. Easter is very different for us now that we don’t have any kids at home. They’re so far away we usually don’t get to be with them, but we are headed to see them this week, so we’re very excited. I am also very excited to be sharing this striped maxi dress that comes in under $30 with you today.
You might remember this dress from a few weeks ago. Well this striped dress is its fraternal twin. HA! Now hold on here ladies, because I’m going to have to “call out” our beloved Target. This dress says it’s on clearance. Insert audible eye roll here. I don’t know about you, but when I hear clearance, I’m thinking dirt cheap. Like at least 50% off. You know I love me some Target, but come one guys. Reducing a dress 5% and calling it “clearance” is a joke. I digress. Clearance or not, this dress is cute, still a good deal and in stock in all sizes.
Let me just remind you of a few things to love about this dress. The back is smocked making it easy to fit many sizes. It has adjustable straps. Ding, ding, ding! That’s always a bonus, and it has a cute little tie at the back.
Maxi dresses are having a moment again this year. They were everywhere about 5 years ago, then kind of faded into the background (never leaving), but they’ve managed to push their way back to the front. This one would be perfect for so many occasions from a beach vacation to a date night, girls night or bridal shower. You could also easily throw a denim jacket on for cooler temps or just a cute look.
Need more maxi inspiration? How about one of these? I’ve covered all price ranges. ?

I LOVE it..the way the hem flares out a bit is so flattering and beautiful! I sure am glad they're back! You look like a trillion bucks...so beautiful!!
Kind of reminds me of your cute jumpsuits. Thanks friend!! XO
This is such a great maxi dress - I love the cut and the smocking in the back is great. I wish it came in different colors. I know what you mean about "clearance" in Target's eyes - ugh, not my definition of clearance either! You look stunning my friend!
xo,

Thanks sweet friend! Bring on the real clearance!!!
I love your maxi dress but I wish it had sleeves! I have been searching for maxi with short sleeves and that one is beautiful!

I'll keep an eye out Mireille. I saw a really cute jean jacket that comes to the elbows. It would work well with a dress. Here's a link if you want to check it out. https://rstyle.me/+moulKIDr85NnSMwY0Uw4OA
You know why I adore this dress so much Lisa (besides the fact that it looks amazing on you?). I love that if and when you wouldn't want it as a maxi anymore, you could easily take off that bottom panel and have a shorter dress!!
OXOX

You're a genius! It certainly could be shortened. Thanks Jodie!!!
I love the colors in that maxi dress. I am with you. Clearance is at least 50% off - and a sale is at least 25% off. (5% is nothing). Hope you have a wonderful Monday.
YES! See, you understand how a sale should be done. LOL Thanks Lisa!
Oh Lisa- fabulous dress on you! Fits you like a glove! Love stripes and this is just perfect :)
Thank you Holly!
Cute, cute maxi, Lisa! And I agree! 5% off is NOT a sale!!
Yeah, they should be embarrassed to call that a sale. HA!
I love all your cute sundresses that you post. I don't wear dresses in the winter at all typically, but love to wear them in the spring and summer.

Thanks Julie! I can say the same for you?
Gorgeous dress ! We enjoyed Easter Sunday with my children and three little grandchildren, Now if the weather would stay warm this lady would be more than thrilled. Happy Tuesday beautiful.
Thanks so much sweet lady!
Big sale or not, that dress is gorgeous on you! Love the stripes and neutral palette!
