    So many different takes on polka dots! I love the Dolce and Gabbana looks, the first has such a vintage feel… and the sheer dotted panels look so gorgeous tight against the skin!

  3. Hi lovely!!!! This post has got to be the most unique ways that I have ever seen polka dots sported!! I love those pretty Stella McCartney dresses, and adoring BIG polka dots like on the Kate Spade! I think swimsuits are also a great way to wear polka dots but what I’m MOST smitten about is that adorable last photo!! Beautiful inspirations for today, thank you! ♥

    Glad to read you’re safe. I love seeing the polka dotted pants- would be hard to carry them off. Unless they were in a comfy palazzo cut, that would be easy to wear.
