Hello my dear friends,
How have you been this week? The summer heat will be close to its end hopefully. I am looking forward to the coming of fall as I have booked the flight to Montreal Canada in Sept for a 3-day tour to experience its fascinating art, food, culture and architecture. The best part of it is of course to see its early fall leaves.
I have been a lover of polka dot dresses, shirts and blouses since I was a teenager girl …… To me polka dot print is as lovely as Minnie Mouse and as charming and attractive as those vintage dresses from the 20’s.
This navy blue and white polka dot V-Neck – mid sleeves – midi dress is what I have ordered from JC penny.com a couple of years ago. I love it so much that I have never tired of it as of now . It has been my to go dress either for work , for a date out or for a party.
The polka dot dress flatters my petite hourglass shape I believe. I have been having difficult time finding the right style for my body shape and height for quite a while – I am only 5’3 ,but curvy. After many years of trial and error, I know that sheath dress is for me but not swift dress; midi, not maxi; A-line or fit and flare, not baggy; smaller dot, prints, not big ones. Solid color is the best…..
No body shape is perfect. No matter what type of body figure you have, you can always have the potential to be more attractive as long as you use the right dressing techniques and find your own style. Do not be afraid of embracing your beauty inside & out. But still I have to say that I am lucky enough to have the hourglass figure……
Again I paired the dress with my red shoes and red handbag to match the red tie waist.
If you want to dress down, you can pair the dress with casual shoes. I wore this pair of red Keds casual shoes when going to a park. It is super comfortable.
I can also switch to a pair of white pump to go with the white dot on the dress.
I love this classy and elegant polka dot dress. Do you? Please let me know how you think about the look in the comment section.
Hope you enjoy my post today. I will see you next time

Hi Bonnie, cute dress! You mentioned you are going to Montreal. It’s a beautiful place. You feel like you are in France. But be careful. When we went there several years ago, someone stole my purse. I lost my passport, wallet, keys, and my memory chip off several days of vacation. – Rita

You’re wearing Keds so you won me over on that one! I think this dress is perfect because the Polka Dots get smaller and less dense as they work their way up your dress which makes it make you look taller. And red, white & blue? One of my favorite combinations.
