Isaac Mizrahi’s Target line has some great retro-style dresses this season. In case you haven’t seen his Target collection, it’s really something. Cute dresses perfect for wearing to those outdoor spring weddings. Retro classic styles that work now and years from now. Best of all, they’re all under fifty bucks
Here are a few of my favorites:
Yellow Wrap Dress
This yellow cap sleeve dress has an adorable side bow and a flattering a-line skirt. It’s very similar to a style I saw at Banana Republic just a few weeks ago. Target also carries this style in black for a more classic look. I’d probably wear it to a backyard bbq (I actually think it would be perfect for Easter, but I’d have to wait a year for that…)
Taffeta Couture Dress
Ooh, I love this retro style dress in “fandago red.” Very pretty for a backyard wedding, spring party, or a dressy bridal shower. Don’t you just want to put it on and twirl in front of a mirror? Or is that just me?
Toile Dress in Silver
I’m not a huge fan of floral patterns, but I rather like this simple feminine dress. Probably a piece I’d feel comfortable wearing to church, the office, or other conservative places.

This stylish number is my personal favorite (although a bit expensive at $164…). The swimsuit has halter straps, lace trim, and an adorable bow. I think I’m in love…
