Fall Trend: Polka Dots

Saturday, October 1, 2011

Last February, Marc Jacobs seriously peppered his fall collection’s runway with polka dots. Ever since then, I’ve had polka dots on my mind.

I was elated to score a darling Jovovich-Hawk for Target neutral and black polka dot dress from Target’s Go International Designer Collective several months back. And I’ve sported a black on black polka party frock in recent years, but I haven’t gone all out with color as I feared going too much in the Minnie Mouse direction. After being inspired by Marc Jacobs classy rendition of les dots, however, I decided that it was time to pull the trigger and seek out some more polka dot pretties.

I’m loving this flirty LC Lauren Conrad number! My birthday is coming up next month and I think a new dress is in order…Don’t you?!? Plus, this particular dress is a steal at $51.00!

That dress is super cute, and I think that the graduated dots keep it from looking too cartoon-y.

This little number is too cute. With a pashmina or cardigan for colder Fall days. You could even wear this with ballet flats instead of heels. Oh the possibilities….

Polka dots, like animal prints (IMO), never go out of style!
