Finally! Spring!
The weather is just lovely today here in Chicago, sunny and warm but not too warm. Spring officially began a month ago but because the midwest has really unpredictable weather, I haven't been feeling springy yet. But we've waited long enough and I've decided that today is the first day of Spring here at the Pretty Pear. To celebrate, I'll be sharing some of my picks of the latest and cutest from various retailers.
To start, check out this dress by Mossimo from Target. It's made of 100% linen, which is light and breathable for warm weather and the color combination and print are adorable. The cut is very similar to a dress I picked up at Target last year, which I love and works well if you're smaller on top with fuller hips. I know some of you are wary of showing your arms, so you could layer a light, short sleeved, cropped cardigan like this one on top. The dress is $30 and available in sizes 16/18 through 28/30.
Hey! Fashionable Minds think alike!!
I was looking at this same dress this morning...I always have to go into Target and try dresses on so I guess I'll be heading out there soon. I wish they had it in more colors. :)

That dress is cute! I wish the Target near me had a better plus-size section. It's constantly picked over.
Happy spring in Chicago! In the District it's been warm some days and cool on others.
