Thursday Trend: Polka Dots

01/03/13 | Alice + Olivia, Anthropologie, Fashion and Style, Gap, J Crew, Kate Spade, Thursday Trend, Top Shop

One Word: STUNNING
Two Words: POLKA DOTS
Three Words: BLACK AND WHITE

Black and White Polka Dot
I love fashion, polka dots and black and white so this Thursday trend combines all three as does this lovely photo.  I love polka dots for any season.  I have bright summer dresses and bathing suits but for fall I want to continue my love. I took inspiration from my navy and white tiered polka dot dress that I wore to the horse races at the FoxField Races this past April, a steeplechase held annually each Spring in Charlottesville, Virginia!  

Right now there are so many great options between blazers, sweaters, and pants.  Here are my favorites: 
TOPSHOP  Smudges Spot Printed Trench
ANTRHOPOLGIE Polka-Dot Blazer

   
ALICE + OLIVIA Celyn Polka Dot Sweater with Sequins
JCREW Collection Cashmere Polka-Dot Sweater 
  Collection cashmere polka-dot sweater

GAP  Slim Cropped Refined Dot Pants
PAIGE DENIM  Verdugo Ultra Skinny Black Polka Dot Jeans

    

KATE SPADE Jillian Dress
DORTHY PERKINS Black Polka Dot Belted Dress  

                                                                     

 

Do you like polka dots?  What is your favorite way to wear them?

    Never thought I liked polka dots until recently. I love the Paige Denim jeans! I just got myself a black & white polka dot dress for Christmas and I can’t wait to wear it! Especially not after seeing that gorgeous picture of Keira Knightley.
