Drop Waist Dress – Victoria Beckham for Target

If you follow me on Instagram, then you already caught a glimpse of this drop waist dress and the story behind it. I am particularly proud of this look because I took the photos using a tripod and remote! Never in a million years did I think I’d be capable of embracing the awkward and posing for a “ghost photographer.” But you know what they say, “desperate times call for desperate measures.” In an effort to “nurture my relationship,” this is my attempt to give Jonathan a break. I cannot guarantee GG will pose like a statue every time, but I can guarantee that I’ll publish content more frequently.

Target nails it again! But this time with the guidance of fashion designer Victoria Beckham. Every few years, they collaborate with a designer and curate an exclusive collection of affordably priced items. After a frustrating experience during the Lilly launch in 2015, I decided to buy in-store only. I’m happy to report that I still managed to snag my favorite item from the collection, a drop waist scallop hem dress! As it turns out, some things really are worth waiting for.

After the launch date I read a lot of mixed reviews about the quality of the apparel. Apparently you cannot satisfy everyone because I have no complaints after wearing this dress. The only con is that is it hard to button the backside yourself. But that’s what friends are for! The material is thick enough to resist wrinkles and the scallop details are darling. Drop waist garments can be a difficult fit because they are often in the form of a shift dress. I am wearing a XS and it is neither too tight nor too loose. Unfortunately this item is no longer available online but click here to check the inventory at a Target near you. I already cannot wait to rock this dress with booties during the fall. Not bad for a $20 clearance item if I say so myself. Buy or cry!
