By now you’ve discovered my affinity for bold colors and prints. Polka dot happens to be a favorite. Black and white polka that is. There is something seemingly special about the perfectly-filled circles whose origination traces back to the UK in the late nineteenth century Fast forward to today and the print is just as popular as ever. Here are five reasons to love all things polka dots.
1. Effortless | It’s an effortless and chic print. You really don’t have to put in much effort when styling the print. It kinda does all the work for you. Whether you decide to go black-on-white or white-on-black—you can certainly pull off most looks with ease.
2. Perfect Mix | It provides a perfect contrast for mixing prints. Have fun mixing two different variety of dots or mixing it with floral print or stripes. Oh, yes you can! Enjoy the endless possibilities.
3. It Makes for a Perfect Bikini | Hands down, the most classic and feminine bikini was made out of this classic print. Marilyn Monroe was a huge fan and rightfully so.
4. It Says Vintage Chic | I’ve always appreciated vintage fashion and nothings says vintage chic than polka dots. From a classic full length tea skirt, cat eye frames or the aforementioned bikini. You’ll be making a fab and retrospective fashion statement.
5. Minnie Knows Best | Hey, if Minnie Mouse gave it her stamp of approval—what’s more to love?
