Polka! A summer trend



By Paula Rath
Advertiser Staff Writer

LEIFSDOTTIR WHITE RUFFLED TOP AND BLUE-AND-WHITE POLKA-DOT SKIRT

Blue is huge for summer, and it's always freshest paired with white. This adorable Leifsdottir skirt and top (Neiman Marcus, $198 and $148) are ideal for work, lunch with the girls or a movie date. We would also love the skirt with a simple white T-shirt or a little cropped linen jacket and yellow tank top. Add nude espadrilles, wedges or sandals with perforations (another fab trend) to play off the polka-dot theme.

POLKA-DOT BAG

A big, feminine bag is summer perfect when it's polka-dotted. So cute with a nautical striped top, khaki cuffed shorts and espadrilles.

Polka dots are a trend we always welcome. Cheerful and optimistic, they make us smile. For summer 2010, we found polka dots on everything from headbands to high heels, in stores from Forever 21 to Neiman Marcus and at price ranges from $5 to $500.

Here are a few of our pretty polka-dot finds with tips on how to wear them.
