Lilac and Polka Dots



I recently found out that polka dots originated in 1926 when Miss America was photographed in a polka dot swim suit which led to Walt Disney's inspiration for Minnie Mouses' dress. I have two other polka dot dresses but I have to admit when I bought them I had Gwen Stefani's 1990's style in mind! I found this dress in the £1 charity shop where I found my gold dress I posted about previously! It was covered in coffee stains but I managed to revive it! The dress is exactly the same colour as the marabou earrings I made so they were the perfect accessory choice. I decided to wear heavy peep toe heels with the dress because I wanted to eliminate any chance of looking frumpy since the dress is quite long and I also wanted to give the outfit a grungey feel.
