Flirty Off the Shoulder Floral Dress
Hey Everyone! I am seriously loving the off-the-shoulder/ cold-shoulder trend right now, so last week when I finally let myself indulge in some Target shopping, this was the end result. But ya know what? I can’t even say that I have buyer’s remorse with this one because hello- It’s adorable!
I love the blue color, the gorgeous floral print, and it’s seriously the perfect length for either dressing up with heels for date night like I did here, or dressing down with flats or cute sneakers (think keds or converse) for a super casual look.
This dress features an elastic waist with tie, a darling sweetheart neckline, and of course hangs off the shoulder with two spaghetti straps. It also has a really flirty v-shaped back detail, which is very cute. Oh, and did I mention the material is the softest material you’ve ever felt? I mean, this is pretty much the perfect dress in my book. (P.S. it’s on sale right now over here!)
Outfit Details: Dress- (Target); Shoes- (Similar); Earrings- (JCPenney)
Have you all jumped on the off-the-shoulder trend yet? I’d love to see your looks if you have!
Have a great week!- Cara

Cute! I tried this on at Target and it did NOT work for me. It looks amazing on you!
Aw thank-you! Definitely why I always try everything on before buying because even if I think it will work on me, it doesn’t always! Hope you find your perfect dress soon! š
You look stunning! As always!
Keep Smiling!

Such a cute dress, I love off the shoulder styles and that blue is such a pretty color.
Thank-you! I really love this blue shade!
This dress is beautiful!! Very lovely off-the-shoulder and I love the back on it. Perhaps I need to get one myself.
Gosh… I miss Target.
Thank-you! You definitely should! š
That blue is such a pretty color! I love off-the-shoulder dresses & tops but they always slip down on me! Like the added straps on this. So cute!
Thank-you! That’s what I really loved about this one is it still had the thin straps, which is nice! š
This dress is SO cute! Definitely heading to my local Target tomorrow! I think this sweet dress needs to be part of my closet!

Thank-you! At under $20 you can’t beat it! š
I’m about to lose some money in Target. Lol Seems the case every time I go in there. LOVE the color of this dress and the cut too! Absolutely perfect for summer!
Haha, I know the feeling! Thank-you! š
What an adorable dress!!! I also love the whole off the shoulder look. I am so jealous that you always find great pieces at Target. My target always seems to be out of the really cute stuff when I go. š
Thank-you! That’s a bummer about your Target! You just need to come to VA one day and we’ll shop together! š
You look SOOOOO pretty Cara! Just too stinking adorable.
Aw thank-you Chelsea! š
OMG! We’re twinning this week! I am also sporting a floral off-shoulder dress in my latest post!

Thank-you! š
You are so pretty! I love this dress on you! I wish I was more of a dress person, because this is something I would definitely try! But it would be sad simply hanging in the closet.
Thanks Erin! You’d look great in dresses, but nothing wrong with being more of a jeans and t-shirt gal either. š
You look absolutely STUNNING!! One of the cutest Summer dresses I’ve seen!!
Aw thank-you! š
This dress is so cute on you! I love the colors and the detailing on the back!!! I think the off the shoulder look is so cute.

Thank-you! š
I have been obsessed with the off-shoulder trend this season, too! I love the floral print of the dress! You look gorgeous!
Thank-you so much! Florals and off-the-shoulders all the way! š
Usually I’m nor a fan of floral neither off-the-shoulder, but this one’s surely an exception. It’s so stylish and not too floral for my taste. I love the blue colour. It suits you gorgeously! š
Thank-you! I love that the floral pattern is subtle and perfect for both summer and fall! š
I love this on you! The color is perfect and I love the extra detail on the back!
Thank-you so much! š
I love the pattern!! so pretty and summery.
It really catches your eye doesn’t it? Thank-you!
Love the bold colors and print of your dress! So pretty on you!

Thank-you! Definitely suitable for all occasions! š
So pretty!! I love that it’s a darker pattern–for some reason, when I think ‘floral’, I always think of flowers on a lighter background like white or cream, but I really love the effect of the flowers on a dark blue background!
Thank-you! I know what you mean, generally you think of grandma’s old flower curtains haha, but this floral print is gorgeous! š
Such a pretty dress! I love the off the shoulder trend.
Thank-you! I do too! There’s something so flirty about it! š
What a pretty dress! I love that it’s mainly blue with a pop of color to make it bright for summer.
Thank-you! I liked that about it too. It kind of had a spanish inspired feel to it as well! š
I love this!! Blue is my favorite color, but I love that this is floral and has some other beautiful colors in it too. Can’t believe you found that at Target!
Thank-you! Target has some great pieces! š
What a gorgeous dress, love the bold colors!
Thanks so much! The print is what drew me in! š
This dress looks incredible on you, Cara! I also love the wedges you paired with it. It’s a similar pattern to a romper I have, and I always get compliments on it. Lovely photos as well š
Aw, thank-you Kiara! I bet that romper looks so cute on you!
A lovely dress. I love the colours and you look beautiful.
Thank-you so much! The floral print is my favorite part! š
