Do The Polka

by Ana
Writing this blog and reading countless other ones daily have helped me to pinpoint things about my own style. One such thing that I have discovered is that I really love classic prints; I have already played favorites with stripes and florals (here and here, respectively) so I thought that now would be the perfect time to focus on my third choice: polka dots. This spring I have seen innumerable stunning clothing items and blogger outfits centred around this print, so I wanted to find out if the eco-friendly labels are keeping up with the trend - boy, did I find some beautiful pieces!

    I am SO in love with polka dot bikinis. They are such classics and are instantly fashionable. They really remind me of old-school glamour -- although they were not nearly as revealing back then.
