Putting together a Flavors To Follow post while on a shopping hiatus is like one of the hardest things I’ve had to do this week.  I’m forced to do some online virtual shopping to put this post together, yet I cannot buy a single thing, torture I tell you, torture.  But lucky for you, I am your personal shopper, at your service.  You can thank me by buying me one of these pieces, pretty please.  🙂

But anyway, my new obsession of the week is polka dots.  This trend has been around for quite some time now that I’m not even sure it really is a trend, but it’s almost like a staple piece in my opinion.  I have a few tops, tunics and dresses in this pattern, but I am lacking in polka dot cardigans, accessories and shoes.  Not that I need polka dots in all of these things, but it would be fun, wouldn’t it?  Polka dots can make a statement on their own paired with a solid, or it’s great for pattern mixing with stripes, florals, and even other polka dots.


1. This cute Rebecca Minkoff bag is the perfect mix of rocker and feminine.  The studs look like polka dots to me.  Studded Rocker Cross Body
