How to Wear Polka Dots in Spring

          Polka dots, that beloved print reminiscent of "little girl" pinafores and dresses can be worn by adults, too. Polka dots are once again in fashion for spring and summer (as if it ever was out). Here are some fashion tips to help you wear polka dots like an adult and not a little girl.
 


Head to Toe Polka Dots is a big No, No
          Little girls can pair a polka dot dress with polka dot tights and look adorable. A grown woman cannot. If you have decided to wear polka dots this spring, choose just one polka dot item. If you are choosing to wear a polka dot spring dress, keep your legs bare and choose simple accessories. A polka dot blouse can make a smashing spring outfit when paired with solid colored slacks or shorts. Keep your polka dots to one clothing item and you will be sporting a hot spring fashion trend.


Choose Large Polka Dots
          Dotted Swiss was a favorite pattern of mine as a child. Do you remember those teeny, tiny white raised white polka dots on lightweight pastel material? Tiny polka dots look adorable on little girls. Adults should choose bigger, bolder polka dots for a more polished spring look. Tiny polka dots scream little girl and tend to not look flattering on adults. Instead choose the bolder large polka dots and channel this hot spring fashion trend in an adult way.


Choose Bold Polka Dot Colors
          Pale pink and white polka dots look charming on children, but may not be the best way for women to wear this spring fashion trend. Instead choose a bold red with white polka dots or electric blue with yellow polka dots. Here is a spring fashion tip: Pastel polka dots are for little girls, but bold bright polka dots are for women. Remember this spring fashion tip and you will look incredible in your polka dot ensemble.

Accessorize with Polka Dots
          If a polka dot top or dress is too bold for your spring fashion look, try a polka dot scarf. One of my favorite spring looks is to wear a pair of white shorts with a red and white striped top and a red and white scarf tied around my hair.
 


Mix Polka Dots with a Different Pattern or Print
          Another spring fashion tip is that it is ok to mix different prints. You can wear stripes and polka dots at the same time and look amazing doing so.
        
          If you love polka dots but thought they were just for little girls now you know, Women can wear polka dots and look amazing this spring. My final spring fashion tip is to wear your polka dots with confidence and be the amazing woman that you are.
