These cooler mornings have me ready to dress for fall. That being said, our extended forecast has highs in the upper 80’s going into next week. *Sigh*
so…currently me:
Oh the irony of sharing my tidy closet yesterday and now the new items that I’ve purchased recently from Target and Walmart.
Amy had shared this dress from Target, and I saved it on the app.
Well, over Labor Day weekend, Target had a 30% off sale, so I went ahead and snagged it in green and gray. ($17 each!)
Well, if you give a mouse a cookie…I noticed the boots on the model, and figured they had to be from Target. I found them, and they were also on sale for $30. They are a western style boot, so I wasn’t sure if I’d like them, but *newsflash* I do! I got them in tan which seems to be very limited in stock, but there are other colors. The tan, cognac, and gray are a suede material whereas the other options (black and off-white) appear to be leather.
After my closet clean out this summer, I did make note that I was due for a new pair of tall boots. The pair I parted ways with were about ten years old. I also got rid of a couple of pairs of ankle boots, and decided to give these a try in tan when I saw they were also on sale for $28. They also come in gray, cognac, and olive green.
Please excuse the wrinkly dresses, but I just try things on and snap photos when I have a few extra minutes.

Gray dress with tall boots:
No picture, but I wore the olive colored dress to school on Tuesday with a cardigan and sneakers. It was a good put together but comfy outfit.
I usually wear a 9, but sized up in both to a 9.5 because of the narrow toe. Both fit perfectly.
Again, I’m not one to “power shop” like that, but I had a feeling the dress and the boots were going to be “hot ticket items” this fall. Plus, with the sale, I was saving money, right?!
Walmart has been upping their game the past couple of years, and when Ashley shared this Free Assembly Walmart dress and popover top, I wanted to give them a try too.
The dress comes in pink as well!
Here it is paired with my Target ankle boots:
I wore the dress yesterday with some gold sandals that I’ve had for years.
I really wanted the popover top in gray or green…
but I bought it in pink as the other two colors never seemed to be in stock.
I think it will be perfect with jeans, workout shorts or leggings with a tank.
Now if Mother Nature would take the hint, I’d love to be able to wear the boots and popover without breaking a sweat!
See you back here tomorrow for Friday Favorites.

Ok, I love both of those boots! I would have picked tan, to0. Now I am waffling about the top of the dress on me because I am so top heavy. I think it will look ok with a cardigan on top, though. That is the true test that you already wore it. If I have something and don’t wear it right away, there might be a reason and I need to take it back. I love the Walmart dress, too, and the popover. that looks like a nice quality. Walmart has really upped their game. I know what you mean about power shopping. I do tend to do that a bit at the beginning of a new season sometimes and it usually works out for me.

I think I told you I also tried a medium in the dress. It felt like it fit so I took a pic…& then compared to the large and just felt better in the large. I didn’t want it clinging to my booty. I want to wear the boots…if only the weather would cooperate haha
I’m seriously so sad that I can’t seem to get my hands on the gray or green version of the Walmart popover . I am glad I ordered the pink…I was just trying to get a color that was more fall / winter…

Good to know –
I think it is quite a straight dress with little give. That’s why I went up a size.
I know! Ready for 70s at least.
Maybe keep checking and they will restock. I love my white Aerie pullover but it’s long and not really out of house appropriate like these would be!

Those all look so cute on you! I need a dress or two for fall and winter, but I don’t know where to shop. I feel like the Target one won’t look good on me, but I really do love it on you. Walmart is so much better than it used to be! I just never go in person and only do the shopping online. They have more color options as well, most of the time. Thanks for sharing!
