Dots.

Oh how things can change.

A year ago, I would have told you how polka dots repulsed me. I wouldn't be caught dead in them. Something about them was just TOO sweet. Does that make sense?

The past few months I've found some nostalgia and happiness in polka dots. They're so upbeat, proper and preppy. I love everything preppy right now.

I think it's time for a flowly polka dot top or a sweet, delicate dress.

Thoughts?

    I'm obsessed with polka dots. It's Something classic but still very feminine. Big fan! And I love the first and second pics.

    I love polka dots and I don't think they're too sweet, just sweet enough. But, then again, I also often wonder if some kids' clothes come in my size. Why can't I wear a tutu to work?! So, I might not be a good judge of what's too sweet or not. The polka dot dress from Anthropologie, although pricey, is really awesome.

    I love the second dress, but I don't know if I could pull off all over polka dots. Then again, I'm style challenged :)

    Oh my goodness. How can you not like polka dots?! I love them so much and I am not even a really girly girl. That should count for something.

    I would def go with navy and white polka dots since this is for you after all... and while you might BUY any other color, you might not wear it. Besides navy and white = CLASSIC.

    I half expected to see polka-dotted Tiny Toms on this post haha, but I guess you couldn't really wear those.

    I like them on certain things, like blouses and skirts I am not sure I could wear head to toe dots.

    I'v never been a huge polka dot fan myself. I'm to the point where I can take them in small doses, as long as they are pretty small. :P But who knows. I've a history of doing 180 on things I swore I couldnt stand ...
