I love just absolutely everything about Polka Dots, and there isn’t a whole lot to love really. It’s a very simply pattern which is adorable!

So here are some polka dot finds in different price ranges to suit your budgets!

$0-$25

Forever21 Tiered Polka Dot Dress – $19.80

This polka dot print dress features a tiered full skirt and a ruched bodice. V-neckline. Decorative five button placket. Adjustable spaghetti straps. Hidden back zipper placket and hook-eye closure. Traditional waistline. Finished hem. Fully lined. Woven. Lightweight.

Modcloth Watermelon Slice Scarf – $24.99

Refresh your outfit with this polka dot scarf! This breezy pink-and-green scarf adds a splash of color to your typical T-shirt and jeans. With this scarf looped loosely around your shoulders, seed-black earrings on your lobes, and a pair of lemon-yellow sandals gracing your feet, you’ll look as sweet as your favorite fruity treat!

ASOS Padded Fuller Bust Bandeau Bikini Top In Spot Print – $8.95

This fuller bust bikini top by ASOS Collection has been crafted in a lined, stretch fabric. The details include: bandeau styling with soft handle cups, ruching to the centre, a polka dot print, a detachable halterneck strap and a twist clasp fastening to the reverse.

$25-$50

Modcloth A Dot Like Love Dress – $47.99

When you first laid eyes on this silky lemon yellow dress bedecked with vibrant purple polka dots, it was love at first sight. Admiring how the classic A-line silhouette flatters your figure, you can’t help but do a twirl, the full circle skirt spinning out around you. Paired with a golden belt, dark mahogany heels, and bronze accessories, you’ve crafted a stylish look that will have all who see you swooning.

Exclusive Gap + Clu polka dot T – $39.95

Alannah Hill Romance in the Snow – $50

Adorable polka dot fingerless gloves feather baby locked frill edging and velvet bow. Wrist length

$50-$100

EDC Polka Dot 1/2 Slv Blouse – $69.95

Cute and classic are combined in this gorgeous Polka Dot 1/2 Sleeve Blouse from EDC.

Featuring a bubble hem above a shirred waistband, this is a style that flatters your form and adds a touch of playfulness to your everyday look.

Team with straight black pants to show off the length of your legs, and complete your look with black heels and drop earrings.

The round neck flatters a small bust, while the bubble feature disguises any hint of a tummy. The shirred waistband both breaks up a longer body and accentuates the waist.

Modcloth Milkshake Things Up Dress – $89.99

Weekday evenings typically fall on the quieter side, but when your pal invites you along on a spontaneous trip to the ice cream shop, you simply can’t refuse! You skip out the door in this darling mint frock by Mink Pink, an Australian brand with a flair for eclectic, vintage-inspired styles that break out from the fashion norm. The sweetheart neckline, ruched back, and sugar-white polka dots of this charming look whip up a look that’s as delectable as the mint-chocolate milkshake you order. Sipping your shake in your lemon-yellow sandals, delicate pendant necklace, and caramel cardigan, you revel in the joy of your indulgent evening!

Betsey Johnson ‘Bling Bling Time’ Square Polka Dot Watch – $87.25

A playful polka-dot motif on the leather strap adds to the girly style of a mother-of-pearl watch with a sparkling, crystal-encrusted case.

Fix Design Mini Skirt – $76.00

Yellow and white polka dot cotton skirt from Fix Design featuring a wide waistband with two front button details, pleats and a gold-tone metal bow logo detail above the hem.

Hope you enjoyed this very small collection of Polka Dot finds!

Until next time,

This is a movie post with a difference, instead of picking a movie I’ve already seen I’m picking a film that I am hoping to see sometime soon, The Sapphires.

I am excited about seeing it in a way I haven’t been excited about an Australian film in a long time.

I hope I enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting together outfits with this shade of blue!

Herro Everyone,

I would love to see this movie too but I don’t think I’ll get around to it sadly.

Some days are bright and airy and nothing goes wrong, the world is on your side and you are sure that you’ve got everything under control. The clothes you wear on this day probably reflect your mood they are light and punchy, bright and just a little more carefree.

Then you have days when nothing goes to plan, when you snap at the people you love. When you don’t see the outcome you wanted or worked for or you end up in bed nursing a broken heart / hurt feelings. Those days are the ones where what you wear has the most to do. Sure you could lounge in your jim jams until three or your could put on something fabulous and head on out, daring the world to take you on again…..

Reds and oranges make me smile when everything else seems to be in shades of blue:

 

Do you have an item of clothing that helps you deal with a shitty day?
