This $35 Dress Is Going to Be Your Secret Style Weapon All Summer Long

It's a known fact that Target runs will get you every time. You walk in needing toilet paper, and you walk out having spent half your life's savings on clearance pillowcases, wine, and Arbor Day decorations. (No regrets.)

The reliable retailer is a safe haven for basics—both home essentials and the people—to live and thrive. So you can't fault them for selling us everything we didn't know we needed, especially on the clothing front.

Women's Elbow Sleeve V-Neck Slim Fit Button-Down Flowy Tiered Mini Dress

$34.99

From the store's in-house collaboration with Who What Wear, this dress is the piece I didn't realize was missing from summer wardrobe...until now. Its billowy, multi-tiered silhouette looks deceptively expensive. And at just $28, people will think it cost you ten times more than its accessible price tag. It's cute enough for brunch with your mom, but the tented style also looks cool, like you bought it at some hip contemporary store in Berlin. Made of 100 percent cotton, you're less likely to sweat it out in this breathable fabric.

I also love a non-restrictive mini dress: they flatter your figure and elongate your legs, but you can eat a whole pizza and no one would be the wiser. If LBDs aren't your thing, it also comes in a graphic floral print. With all these rave reviews—in addition to over one hundred 4.5 star ratings on Target—we suggest you shop now before it sells out.
