So there I was at Target the other day…grabbing some groceries, you know, cleaning supplies, etc etc. Well, I stopped by the clearance clothing section (of course), and found this Altuzarra for Target dress on clearance for $13. Sold. Anywho, I was at the register checking out when their machine froze and stopped working. I didn’t really care all that much, but the store was very apologetic and gave me $10 off my purchase. As a result, I figured this dress wound up being a three dollar treat. Ta. Da. Also, it’s softer than my pajamas, and it’s snakeskin print. I mean, really? It’s a three dollar treat via Target.
Dress: Altuzarra for Target ($3 marked down from $45)
Tights: Hue via Nordstrom Rack ($3 marked down from $15)
Shoes: Nine West Outlet in New Orleans, LA ($25 marked down from approx $100)
Scarf: Limited (approx $7 marked down from $35)
Ring: Forever 21 ($1.50)
Huntress necklace: made it!
Fashion Huntress tips:
1) If you’re a fan of the Altuzarra collection, or even if you have yet to see it, there are still a LOT of pieces available online and seriously marked down. Go to target.com and enter “Altuzarra” in the search box to find the available pieces. There are still skirts, tops, dresses, and shoes available (when I last checked). I think the quality of the collection is quite good; I got stopped many times about this dress and kept telling people it was from Target. Target is where it’s at, right?!
2) I went pretty bold with this look, despite the bold print. Sometimes you want to just go all out, right? But this dress could be easily “toned down” with black tights, black shoes, neutral cardigan or blazer, and a neutral scarf. As with many dresses, you could also layer a sweater over the dress and make the dress into a skirt to “tone it down” into a smaller print.
Anyone else find some pieces in this collection? Going to snag some on sale? Thanks so much for stopping by, readers! I appreciate it so much!
Love this dress and amazing pumps 🙂 Mel

I’ve been spying on this dress. I love the way u wore it. so chic!
So jealous you got that dress for $3!! I thought my $13 snake print blouse was good. Dress looks perfect on you!! And the necklace? I love it. Did u buy the pendant somewhere or made that too?
Thanks for mentioning that! The copper “stamping blank” is from Vintaj. I picked up a package at Hobby Lobby but you can also get them on Amazon. The copper was soft enough to take the impression well; they are slightly pricier ($5 for bag), but well worth it and still affordable!
First there is the 3$ dress, then the gorgeous pumps and finally the handmade necklace?? OMG!! you truly are a fabulous rockstar fashionista!!!! Love the dress on you!
LOL thank you~!! Let’s just not mention the bag of stamping blanks that I had to throw out while I was practicing- lol 🙂 xo
