Polka Dots and Criss-Cross Skirt

Happy Monday everyone!
I usually associate polka dots with children's clothes. But when I saw this blouse at a consignment store near my house in St. Louis, I had to have it. Paired with an a-line skirt, the polka dots look less childish and more sophisticated.
I like playing with different textures and patterns. The soft silk blouse complements the more structured, criss-cross stitched skirt. The belt completes the outfit by breaking up the monochrome color scheme to create some definition. When in doubt, add a belt.
Thanks for reading!
