Polka Dot Wrap Dress

Happy vday babes. This look is perfect for Valentines Day which BTW is one of my favorite holidays!   We’re planning on making cookies + pizza to celebrate, which are two of our favorites.

We aren’t the type to really ever dress up, hence the reason this post is ON Valentine’s Day. But hey, if you need a last minute outfit idea you’ve come to the right place. You know how we love our casual & comfy looks! We’ll be wearing our loungewear, but if we were to go out then this would most definitely be an option.

Polka Dot Wrap Dress Valentine’s Day Outfit

I’ve been seeing ruffle wrap dresses all over the place. The ruffle detail adds the perfect feminine touch that can be worn for a more feminine look OR a more edgier look with a leather jacket.

How many times can I say feminine in one post, but it’s so true! The combo of ruffles, wraps, pink, and polka dots just screams it!

The Dress

I picked up my dress from Urban Outfitters on sale. I did have to size up to a medium because it was SO short on me & I’m honestly not that tall. A few other places that have some great wrap dresses: Forever 21, asos, and Nordstrom.

The Denim Jacket

We’ve shared how to style this denim jacket QUITE a few times: Oh Darling Blog Is One Year Old, How To Style Glen Plaid Pants, How To Style Polka Dots, Styling Joggers On The Go, & Mix Match Fashion.

It’s not only such a great transition piece for this time of the year but it can be paired with just about anything.

The Faux Fur Stole

A faux fur stole is easy to throw on and adds that little touch of glam. We’ve styled it with a wool coat before HERE. Perfect way to add detail without spending a ton of money!

The Booties

I’ve recently started to really love booties. I’ve been picking up most of them from Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, and H&M. We’ll actually be putting out a blog post on Friday on designer vs. affordable boots!

Something about ruffle wrap dresses that just gets me every time!! We did a whole post on styling polka dots & I mentioned how I wasn’t sure on the whole print. I’m slowly warming up to the whole polka dot print and if you’re the same way my advice is to go for a smaller polka dot at first! Even better, find a light print tee / dress / sweater with white polka dots, that way they aren’t standing out as much as black polka dots would be!

 Tips For Wearing Polka Dots

Go for a more natural makeup look and allow the polka dots to be the main statement

For the shoes stick with a solid color or a simple print like leopard

Layer with a jacket: denim, leather, or suede. For a even more chic look just throw over your shoulders

Add a dainty necklace whether that be one or a few necklaces layered

Don’t be afraid of mixing prints: leopard, floral, or stripes. Be sure to check out our Instagram stories HERE to see how we mixed polka dots and floral

 

Let us know what you’re going to be doing / wearing today for Valentines Day! We wanna know all the deets!
