Connect the Dots

For March, Everybody, Everywear has a brand new challenge: Polka dots!

I just so happen to love circles and have several pieces in my wardrobe that feature dots. Most are small Swiss dot patterns. That’s why I chose my black and white polka dot dress for the challenge. I usually wear this in the summer but it turns out that when worn with knee-high boots, it works as a winter dress. Depending on the climate, I could throw a turtleneck and tights underneath and really handle the weather—no matter how cold!

I thought a circle-heavy skirt needed a contrasting purse so I chose a rectangular clutch. My earrings are hoops—I know I was pushing the envelope with two extra circles, but I couldn’t resist.

  6. Lovely dress, and you’re right – the boots totally “winterize” it. Made me realize I don’t have much in kelly green.
