I adore spots. Like stripes, polka dots are a “timeless and of the moment” choice. They are fun, graphic, modern, age-less and always a statement. Polka dots come in various sizes, forms and colours. Some spotted prints are loud and extreme, while others are soft and subtle. There aren’t any hard and fast rules when it comes to choosing the best spot for you. Large or small, contrasting or tone-on-tone, equidistant or unevenly spaced, and overlapping or uniform, your choice of polka dots this season is abundant. Think of spots on items like girly blouses, cardigans, dresses, skirts and jackets. And if you still can’t get your head around actually wearing dots, there’s always the option of a stylishly spotty accessory.
