Seeing Spots

The big fashion round-a-bout has stopped once again at polka dots.   Not just for babies or 6 year old girls, polka dots are fun!

There's a smattering of polka dots in stores right now, so I hope retailers will introduce more of this trend as we head into the season.    Gorman probably have my favourite version of polka dots at the moment, as they are the closest in style to the king of dots, Marc Jacobs.

I actually don't own anything polka dot, but the image to the left is the stash of polka dot fabric I have, so who knows, you may just see me sporting a dot or two in the near future.








Personally, I prefer the mini or supersized over the traditional polka dots.  
The mini sized polka dots can look elegant and sophisticated when worn for work or casual.
The supersized polka dots are fun and dramatic.




Wear them as the theme to your outfit or as an accent, there are plenty of wearable pieces and accessories available.





... and here's why we've gone dotty ...

  2. Oh I just love love love this post!!! Spots, stripes, stars are my favorite things ever and I do own a few spotty pieces and can't believe you don't! Shopping trip for you young lady- or whip out the sewing machine and put that gorgeous fabric pile to good use! Well, I pretty much feel tortured now as there isn't really a thing on these pages that I don't want to own in my wardrobe! Ah, but to dream! Very inspiring!
