I just sent two polka dot dresses to ThredUp and will now have to buy them back from myself.

Polka dots are my signature pattern. I’ve been wearing them for over 15 years. I wear them all the time and wouldn’t consider them a fad. I’d be happy to tell your former boss she was very wrong.

As a die-hard stripes girl, I’ve never ventured into polka dots. This is a great way to foray in!

I love polka dots and how I can dress them up or down.

Question for you about Miu Miu. What is the deal with the low cut bikini bottoms with pantyhose pulled up to the natural waist with the seam showing? SUCH AN AWFUL LOOK! And the “no pants” look in general...are you kidding me? That is not fashion.

Rant over.

A few weeks ago I thrifted this gorgeous vintage silk dot dress! I’ve been thinking why did I ever leave dots behind, now here comes your Substack! Great post, dots are everlasting!

OK this is very telepathic of you as just this evening I had an event to go to in SF that was "smart casual" and had NO idea what to wear. However, lurking in the back of my closet was an unworn Zimmerman black and white pleated polka dot skirt along with an unworn fitted white blouse est voila; paired with cropped VB denim jacket, a red clutch and black loafers and felt comfortable, and mostly smartly casual. Shopping in the closet for the win!
