Polka Dots, Pearls and Navy

Image showing outfit featuring polka dots: jeans, cardi, wedge heels, pearls.
I'm very keen on polka dots and I have been known to mix them with stripes (shock horror!). Here my casual outfit has a bit of a 50s vibe with the cropped jeans and wedges. Pearls work with any outfit I think, and these outsize numbers are a good companion to the polka dot circles.

I've had the polka dot top for several years (and also in black, because if you find a great top, buy it more than once). I saw the polka dot cardigan online at Peter Hahn. It's a bit longer than I like in a cardi. I prefer them cropped, otherwise they can look a bit mumsy.

Jeans: Cambridge cropped jeans from Boden; denim wedges, Marks & Spencer, past season. Top: Country Casuals, past season. Cardi: Peter Hahn.

I had a few lighting challenges taking these pictures - it was the one day last week when we had a heatwave!
