I was doing my summer closet clean out the other day and I found this cute little dress tucked away back in there where I had totally forgotten about it. When I took it out, I thought, hmm… it’s okay, but Jules totally liked it. I decided that I would wear it later that day when I went was going to go to therapy. The problem was that when I put it on, I didn’t really like how it looked so much on me and thought that it needed a belt.
I tried on just about every belt that I had but couldn’t find one that fit. Okay, maybe not every belt, but I did try several of them, I do have lots of belts so that would have taken a really long time! Point being, I couldn’t find a belt that worked and I just gave up and figured that I could go without a belt. Besides this wrap dress is a faux wrap dress. It looks like a wrap dress and has little ties on the side of it, but it is actually sewn all the way across, thus the ties only pull it together about an inch. So… no belt then.
But…. as I was putting on my makeup and looking at the dress in the mirror, I just couldn’t take it and knew that I had to have some sort of belt with it. That was when I remembered my scarves! I pulled this one out, wrapped it around me, tied it, and knew that was the look!
I do have a funny story about a conversation I had with a store clerk while wearing this dress. It deserves its own post, so this is it for now!
Love you!
Love yourself!
Love Polka Dots!

Oh yes. The belt cinches it. 🙂
I never would have thought of it, but those two patterns are fantastic together. Very cute combo.
Thanks Paula! I thought the two patterns would clash, but somehow they do work together after all!
Thanks!
