Snail Mail Surprise!

Have I ever told you how much I love eBay?
Recently, I have been using eBay to find limited edition clothes that I missed out on.
I have been obsessing over a lot of the old Target collaborations. Rodarte, Richard Chai, Alexander McQueen, etc. I'm so sad I missed out on the collections during their original release.
Thankfully, eBay has come to save my day!

I spotted a dress from the Rodarte collection that I fell in love with. It was in my size, cheap, and available. So I forked over $15 and bought the dress. 3 days later, it arrived in my mail box in all its glory!


First thoughts on this dress:
1) Its really well crafted. I know a lot of the later Target collections aren't as well made...but this dress is pretty quality! Not only is there a side zipper (a huge plus in my book!), the dress is lined, but even the halter bow is even adjustable!
2) The fit is nice..but I did notice it was kind of small. I knew ahead of time to order 1 size up after reading other fashion blogs. It fit perfectly on my waist...but sadly the bust area was too big! :(
3) The dress is short. I am 5'6" or so...and bending over in this dress will forever be a no no.



I am in love with the floral/lace pattern!

I saw other listings for this dress around $14.99. I got my dress for $9.99 (minus shipping). I highly recommend this dress! In the winter you can pair it with tights and a blazer and in summer just run free!!
I'm saving a picture of me in the dress for a special occasion ;D

Cheers!
