If you’ve ever looked at my photos on Instgram and thought I’ve seen that dress before, you have. Over the years I’ve collected Target’s Tarpunto dress in a few styles and colors through the daily deal or clearance racks.
This post was inspired by Target’s latest weekly deal Women’s Dresses Buy One, Get One 50% Off – Valid 10/13-10/19
If anyone recognizes I’m a one-trick pony they don’t say anything to me because three days straight I wore the same style dress in three colors with the same necklace (I have to entertain myself at work some way!). Here I am in the hypnotic jade and black (not shown Soho Grape). I only know the color names because the dress is still available on the website.
A couple of years ago, I bought two of these dresses from the clearance rack because they were less than $8. I got burgundy and brown.
One year the daily deal was a similar dress but it had pockets! I bought three colors: blue, brown and black.
I didn’t buy last year’s dress because it was the same style I had but without pockets.
It’s shapeless shift that wrinkles easily if you sit most of the day, but to me, it is better than sitting all day with a belted waistband digging in. None one sees me unless I take a photo in the restroom! I probably should invest in a couple of belts and stop using the one that comes with the dresses, but let’s not mistake me for someone fashionable!

October 13, 2013 at 8:32 pmI so love this post. I am a creature of habit too. When I find something I like I tend to buy several of it. Sometimes of the same color so when I wear the item out or perhaps stain it, I have a backup waiting in the wings. Nice to know I am not alone 😉
