3 ways to wear a timeless trend: Polka dots

Check these out, too...

  • Ed. obsession under $20: Primp out your keyboard
  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
Classic polka dots are always timeless (just ask Kate Spade!), but oh-so trendy this season. You can go bold and pair them with other loud prints, or tone it down prep-style with more basic accessories. It’s up to you on how you wanna rock your dots. Here are three of our fave ways to wear ’em:

 

Outfit 1: Bold & beautiful
Who says you can’t mix prints? Pair a polka-dot blouse with floral printed jeans for a look that demands attention! The key to not going overboard? Mixing muted tones of grey and pale pink.
 

Rose Garden Skinny Jean, $40, delias.com

Polka Dot Peplum Tank, $11, charlotterusse.com

Women’s Merona Kamoni Wedge Bootie, $35, target.com

Palmdale Necklace, $24, urbanoutfitters.com

 

Outfit 2: Sweet spots

Sometimes polka dots make just as much of a statement when they’re a little subdued. Try a dotted dress with a boyfriend blazer for a polished look that can transition from daywear to night in under a minute!

 

Pretty Polka Dot Dress, $46, lulus.com

Blazer, $25, hm.com

White Mountain Loon Riding Boot, $50, dsw.com 

Staring at Stars Netting Fringe Eternity Scarf, $29, urbanoutfitters.com
 

Outfit 3: Pretty bitty dots

A little polka goes a long way. If ya just wanna spice up an otherwise boring outfit, add some polka dot accents to keep it cool and cute!

So I have a jealousy prob. There is this girl who is one year older than me. She has a huge house and a ginormous amount of land by it. She is really pretty and a level 8 gymnast AND on the best cheer team even though it's her first year. She has an amazing sense of style and a really sweet bf. I'm sooooooooooooo jealous of her and just want to be her. I'm not ungrateful for my life. I don't have it bad at all I'm just super jealous of her life. How do I get over this? HELP ASAP


 


Hey Girl, some people do have it a little easier than others and that kind of stinks. Keep reminding yourself of what you do have and work hard to obtain goals like being a level 8 gymnast or getting on that cheer team. One day you will look back and be thankful that you had to work for it.

Hey! What is a good foundation with full coverage? I have combination skin with not much acne at all. I heard great and horrible things about Revlon Colorstay foundation which is specially made for combo/oily skin but I don't know what to try? I just need something that isn't cakey & covers. Know anything that helps? Please try to give me the best answer. THANK YOU SO MUCH XOXO. <3


 


Hey Girl! It really depends on what you like and your type of skin, you might have to try several different kinds before you find the right one. I recommend anything by MAC, try a liquid and a powder to figure out which one you like.

crush prob
We talk almost everyday. he usually starts a conversation and asks to borrow alot of stuff from me. maintains eye contact when we talk. He glances over at me a lot and my friend said whenever we walk by him he stares at me. We text, and he asked if I go to church, and I said, yeah, and he said he was wondering why I was so nice because he thinks people who go to church are nicer than people who don't and said, "but in your case u go and u r really nice" and he complements me on my artwork sometimes. He teases me sometimes, and eavesdropped when I was talking to my friend, who is also his friend. I know he doesn't like her, I asked and he said no. He thought I liked someone else so when my best friend asked if he liked me he said no but this girl asked him if he thought I was pretty and he said yes. IDK if he likes me, because maybe he told my friend he didn't like me because she's my best friend and would tell me, and he thoughht I liked someone else. What do you think?

 

Hey babe-

It definitely sounds like he's interested. He probably didn't tell your friend when she's asked because he thought you liked someone else, plus guys tend to freeze up when confronted by the friends of the people they like. Your best bet is asking yourself, and because you asked if he liked the other girl, it seems to me like you're pretty comfortable with talking to him about stuff. If you don't want to be too forward just invite him out with a group of your friends to hang out and have fun. Drop some hints and let him know you think of him as more than a friend. xoxo
