Polka Dot Persuasion

Polka Dot Persuassion

This fall it's all about polka dots! J.Crew's Fall/Winter 2012 Lookbook set the tone and rightly so. Kate Spade has also unveiled it's fair share of polka dot inspired pieces, but like J.Crew, they fall in the category of unattainable when it comes to my grad school student budget. Luckily, other more affordable retailers are following suit. Hooray! 

I've already scooped up a boatneck sweater and tank from Old Navy, top from Forever 21, and a dress from Land's End Canvas that looks strikingly similar to the J.Crew dress I've included above. It was a major summer sale steal at only $27 (originally $130)!

Obviously the collection above are my dream purchases. Below you'll find more affordable options that I'm currently coveting or have already purchased. Have you embraced the polka dot persuasion?

  1. I LOVE LOVE LOVE polka dots..........what's not to love.........I guess I'll dust off my MCAY's card and go take a look.....could you do your research and find out what's hot at Macy's, I'm lazy and shop almost exclusively there....boring I know.

    1. Hi Stephanie! Yes, they are extremely similar. I have it in camel with black polka dots. Absolutely love it. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford the J.Crew cashmere wonder. Thanks for stopping by my blog! :-)
