Spots Everywhere





In my pattern mixing quest of 2011, I found myself conjuring up this little number. Abstract dots mixed with polka dots made for an easy mix. One of these days, I'll be bold enough to do two totally different patterns....just not right now. A girl has to baby step her way to that point.

Is anyone else dying for spring to get here already? I want to shed my coat for jackets and let the feet out for some fun in a nice strappy wedge. My legs might die from tight strangulation if it doesn't hurry soon.

Outfit Details:
Black polka dot top- Old Navy
White ikat dot skirt- J. Crew outlet
Gray cardigan- The Limited (via Marshall's)
Black belt- J. Crew
Black boots- BCBG
Black handbag- Foley + Corinna

    now about these isabel marant pumps: what's your size? if i ever see them i will 411 you ASAP. plz do the same!! they are so unbelievable in person. i almost knocked her out. 2 more minutes of her chatting and she would have found herself in the back alley- shoeless, but otherwise unharmed.

    I LOVE the dots mixing!

    I can't wait to get rid of the tights either - I'm usually miss snaggy snaggerson in them!

    Aww, thanks for the lovely comments guys. I love polka dots too, but these are the only spotted items in my wardrobe. They just felt compelled to hang out together. :)

    @Lisa- Tights are a pain. I bought a pair of tights not too long ago that I was so excited to wear and proceeded to rip a nice hole in it before I got a chance to wear them. I thought maybe I'll save them for pants and then ripped a bigger hole down the leg. I was so upset!

    @this free bird-Noooo! Don't tell me how fabulous those shoes are!!!! That's going to make the longing even greater, lol. It's probably a good thing you didn't knock that lady out. Theft and assault for shoes is a slippery slope to go down.
    I normally wear a size 7, so definitely keep an eye out. What color are you eyeing? The red ones?

    Love your outfit! I'm wearing polka dots today (just the top). I'm still trying to find a cute polka dot blouse though.
