Seeing Spots

Hey there!! I'm Jenna from Smitten posting here at flock together today! Being part of this group is awesome, I love getting packages in the mail and it helps curb my longing to shop if I'm always getting to borrow gorgeous pieces from some fabulous bloggers. Like this dress from Ashley of Sourthern California Belle. I have been eyeing her wardrobe since I started following her and to now have the chance to borrow from it is pretty exciting!
When I spotted this dress I knew I wanted to try it out, it's different from anything else I own, and the purple polka dots are so fantastic! Since the other gals had already paired it with a leather jacket I decided to try to style it for a more casual look. It is a perfect going out and date type dress but I really liked it for a casual day. I paired it with my denim jacket, and bright yellow purse to contrast with the pink/purple polka dots. And of course I added a studded belt/flats and a skull ring to toughen the whole look up a bit ;) My philophy is everything is better with studs!

  8. That lovely red polka-dot dress looks fantastic and you styled it beautifully. Your dark blue denim jacket and yellow bag complement the red polka-dots for a very attractive overall look.
