Aussie Curves: Polkadots

 I wear a lot of polka dots. I love them. The majority of my stuff is black with white polka dots and being the committed opshopper that I am, I pass loads of them on my thrifting travels and they usually end up coming home with me. 

Seeing as I always love the classic black with white polka dots and red lips look, I decided to do something different. I picked up this stretchy green polka dot dress from Supre at Harbour Town (I think that is what it is called) in the Gold Coast last April. It was on sale and I loved the colour (I also brought the yellow one when I met the fabulous Daniel Merriweather see HERE) and I thought it would be a perfect addition to my New York summer holiday wardrobe. 

Please don't be afraid to walk into straight sized stores. You never know what you might find (size tags do not take into account the material, style and fit of each garment) you just need to look.

This bloody amazing jacket was given to me as a birthday present from my friend Moala. This is a vintage thrifted piece and I love it. My bug glasses were picked up in New York from  a street vendor, chain was thrifted and boots were from Target. I love the height they give whilst being incredibly comfortable. What are you wearing your polka dots with my friends?










Big Love,

  3. That dress was a fab find, and so was the yellow one! I have a habit of buying one in every colour if I fall in love with something as well. Looks fab with the animal print jacket...love the patterns mixed together.
