Fashionista NOW: Autumn/Winter Print Trend Alert ~ B&W Polka Dots

When looking for a classic print to sport, look nowhere else but at polka dots. Being one of the most versatile and fun print styles ever to have left an indelible mark in the fashion scene, the dots of varying sizes and colors are an all year long obsession.

Polka dots which were everywhere earlier this year, are apparently extending their stay as a fall/winter’s celebrated print. Who could blame the designers and fashion lovers for sticking to a print style that has amazing staying power.

In black and white particularly, polka dots are ruthless. The print goes with anything and that is considered a major plus in my wardrobe as well as many others.

The adjectives used to describe polka dots in fashion include; fun, flirty, modern, eye-catching, classic, smart and chic to name a few.

If you could picture all of the kinds of ensembles that you could come out with a basic polka dot blouse for instance, you’ll be nodding your head to every single word used to describe the print trend.

Fun is the pairing of a bold polka dotted pair of shorts in black and white with a small polka dotted slouch crop top rendered in soft dusty pink and white.

Flirty is the whole statement look of a skater dress in barely there polka dots in every color of the rainbow.

Whether you dress to the nines for some formal occasion, count on polka dots to stretch your fashion limit. Dress it down by teaming it with casual pieces. Wear a polka dot midi skirt with a loose graphic tee worn tucked in and finish with a pair of creepers.

For a chic flair, wear a curve-loving dotted blouse tucked into a midi pencil skirt in black and complete with shiny peep toe pumps in bloody red. The list just goes on and on.
