It was a fashion in late 70's And till-date. Thanks for sharing lovely lovely clicks.
ReplyDeleteOH, I absolutely LOVE these!!! Polka dots are so gorgeous. I have a polka dot skirt... I want a dotty bikini, and maybe dotty shoes, too!

CC, this is so apt for New Year. Here in the Philippines, people wear dots for New Year because dots signify money. That's why I love dots.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comments, darlings!
ReplyDeleteCool fact, Leah :)

Luella is my favourite one!!

ReplyDeletelove love polka dots!!!
ReplyDeletethe black and white shoes are killer!

I'm not a big fan of polka dots since they, in my opinion, tend to look a little country sometimes... these images are super cute, though. I like the turquoise top with the b/w skirt! Now the next step for me would be daring to wear it! xoxox
ReplyDeleteWishlist - The Giambattista Valli Polka dot sheath and the Dior Day Dress!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, I didn't think polka dots could look modern anymore!
I adore polka dots. The Luella is wonderful.

I for one love polka dots, they can go from silly to sexy to sophisticated all year long. Not many styles can do that.
ReplyDeleteI adore the one piece green bathing suit, great picks!
I love polka dots, it's just I feel it's hard for me to wear them without feeling I look cheap. Haha! :D Weird, huh?

Great topic. I love some of the polka dot blouses you picked out! xoxo

I do love polka dot but the trick is to find the perfect item. I saw someone on the tube with a beautiful blue polka dot skirt so I had to ask her where it was from and it was Agnes B.
ReplyDeleteLove these- all polka dots, modern and traditional! Esp loving that "Can't Change Your Spots" dress :)
ReplyDeleteLove the Derek Lam and Azzaro pieces!

Retro polka dots and nipped waists are always adorable in my mind :)

Poka dots - yay! Eternally stylish and always flattering.
ReplyDeleteI love all the polka dots, especially Phillip Lim's. I want his cutout-back jersey dress. I tried it on a couple weeks ago at Neiman's and it is utterly adorable. The bra hook back is the best detail.
ReplyDeleteBig polka dot fan here!! :)
ReplyDeleteThose Versace shoes are to die for, although they look like they'd be difficult to walk in! And I love the dress from modcloth.
