______Why yes, I do have an immense love for navy and white polka dotted things. Polka dots and I are best buddies for life. I almost love polka dots as much as I love the idea of ruling Earth one day (and I do love me some Earth ruling). That being said, finding this dress was a bit of a dream come true. The price tag was also a dream come true: 'twas a mere eight dollars. Yes, eight dollars--and it's even lined! How about that?
______Not only did I steal a deal on such an awesome dress this week, but I also won this vintage navy purse through a giveaway hosted by the super lovely Elanor of Missing Lovebirds. It's even more amazing in person, and literally the perfect length, size, and everything. I seriously love it. Sweet beans, you guys. Sweet beans to the max. Even though I use purses all the time, I'm very reluctant to purchasing them with my own money; thus, winning one really helped increase my purse collection. Now I have a grand total of three purses--one each in navy, black, and cognac. That's basically every color in the neutral color palette rainbow! Nothing can stop me now.
______What're your favorite patterns or colors to wear?
Dress: Ross Dress for Less ($8, yeah!)
Heels: Go Jane (*a lobster and a unicorn totally mated to produce these)
Anchor belt: Lotus Botique
Airplane earrings: Charming Charlie
Purse: vintage, won from MissingLovebirds giveaway
My fab print has to be leopard print but I live how polka fits look absolutely stunning on you!
ReplyDeleteLove your earrings!

ReplyDeleteThat's incredible. You look gorgeous in polka dots so it makes sense that you love it so much. AND THAT BAG. Can I borrow it? It's insanely perfect in every way. You're just hitting the jackpot, aren't you? ;)
My fave pattern? Stripes. I also am really into galaxy but that's a trend that I'm sure will pass eventually... :P Anyways, my fave parts of this outfit are TOTALLY THE ACCESSORIES! those earrings ROCK. I am a weirdo who actually enjoys flying on planes so i very much like those. and the shoes! Those ruffly things...LOVE it! Classic pump is classic no moreeee . I'm also totally digging that bag. Goes great with this outfit! Even better that it was FUHREEEEEEEEEEEE <3

Haha, oh I understand the pain of loving items but not being willing to part with money for it...so glad you won that bag in a giveaway! You really do have quite the neutral collection now ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd I am in complete agreement with Rory on your accessories - those airplane earrings are the cutest things I've ever seen! They're so noticeable too, even from a distance :D
Hmm, my favorite pattern would be stripes...or floral. I'd say they are tied for favorites.
And so glad to hear you contradict the Freshman 15 myth! Haha, I'm getting sooooo much walking in that I'm thinking it might make up for my lack of jogging :b

Those shoes girl <3 I have just been staring at them in wondrous envy. I can't even pick a print just because I utterly love them all, but usually the louder, tackier and brighter it is, the more I love it.

...$8? $8?!?! That is freaking amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm sure you know this, but I love your blue and white outfits. Such a great color scheme. :)
I adore polka dots overall, but I think I love color blocked patterns more. I think they count as a pattern at least. ^^
