Stripes and Polka Dot Fashion

March 03, 2016


One of the easiest pattern combinations to mix are stripes and polka dots.  The first rule for pattern mixing is size of patterns you are pairing together should be different scales.  The wide stripes of my sweater compliment the small polka dots of this fun jersey dress.  You may read my entire post on pattern mixing here.  If you want to add a pop of color to this outfit, I would suggest pairing a leopard heel then bring in your color with your bag with this look.   Another option would be a leopard scarf.  I paired my Clare V bag for this daytime look.

Style tip:  Leopard is a neutral but a little bit goes a long way.

These shoes are not available this season unfortunately, but I did find a similar pair and linked to them below.  I can still pull off my wool hat for a few more weeks but then it will time to switch up to my panama hat for a lighter look with warmer temps.  Are you as excited as I am for spring weather?  My legs, (as proof by these pictures) haven't seen much sunlight and I am longing for a sun filled warm day to fill me with vitamin D.

Take a peek at how two other ladies styled this polka dot dress by following this link to Tulip Facebook page.  While you are there you can vote for my look too please and thank you!!
