Although Sundays are usually my lazy day, yesterday I wanted to get all dolled up in this polka dot dress… No reason in particular, I just felt like it!
As a blogger, and I bet many of you can relate too, I can always justify dressing up for even the laziest of days. It’s always for a blog post. That’s also the same excuse I have for all that late night online shopping… It’s all for the blog *wink wink*…
Even for just a stroll in the city, dressing up can lead to photos and photos make it into a post like this…
Especially if you’re lucky enough to live in a gorgeous city like San Francisco.
You guys must know by now that my favorite pattern is stripes! If I have to pick a second favorite though, it would definitely have to be polka dots. I’ve had this polka dot dress for 3 years now, and even though I don’t wear it often, I always get a lot of compliments when I do. The cut of the chest and the A-line shape are very feminine and sensual. They hug you in the right places, emphasizing your curves. An A-line dress is one of the most flattering shapes on a wide spectrum of figures.

Do you find yourself dressing up for no reason too sometimes?… I really hope I’m not the only one!
Stay chic!

Cute dress! I’m the same way – when I dress up I make sure it gets on the blog!! I love making that extra effort of putting on a nice outfit just because – it always puts a smile on my face :).

Yeah I totally agree! You’re so gorgeous babe. When I get all dolled up, more people approach me for some reason. It’s so fun. Like an extra charm of sorts.

There are definitely times when I’m in the mood for dressing up and applying full on makeup look for no reason at all, so I can relate! I love this polka dot printed dress, it looks wonderful on you and I love those sandals paired with it! I don’t have many polka dots in my wardrobe and I have no idea why because it’s such a lovely print, especially in dress form, I have to add some! Thanks so much for sharing, beauty, and I hope you have a wonderful week ahead!

I think getting dressed up is a privilege that many times is underused!! Why not look great? I consider it an act of self respect!
And this outfit is perfectly classic and modern all at the same time! (ageless to—I’d totally wear it!)

Some times you just have to go with the fashion flow. If it’s telling you to get all glammed up you might as well have fun and go for it. You look lovely so it was well worth it.
