dress: c/o Closet London - handbag: Sincerely Valentine - socks: & Other Stories - loafers: c/o RAS shoes - choker: Forever21
This dress was love at first sight for me. Dark dresses with pale polkadots have had a place in my heart ever since I fell in love with Gwen Stefani's look in the Don't Speak video. Not that her look has ever been off point (inverse of on point lulz), but that particular look just really strongly vibed with me, and demure polkadotted dresses have become the epitomy of femininity in my mind ever since. I also really like the silhouette, with the peplum/drop waist effect and the figure hugging cut.
I wasn't sure how to style the dress though, I didn't want to go too goth but the combination with the loafers called out to me. Adding the sheer polkadotted socks was the perfect way to give the look a bit of a playful edge. Never would have thought I'd be so into a loafer + sock look, I used to associate the combo way too strongly with Michael Jackson. I love it now though!
Hope you like the look too ;-)
