I love polka dots and it's no surprise because I'm a little dotty myself! If eccentricity is a gene, then I inherited it in spades! Those who know me well have had the pleasure of meeting kooky Emily, my favourite part of my personality!
Some of my eccentricities include my numerical OCD tendencies; my obsessive love of Q-tips; my made-up vocabulary and crazy cat voices and occasional R rated stories told to strangers (resulting from an inability to filter myself properly!)
It's day two of my black & white challenge and the only colours I see are my hot pink finger nails, unruly greenery (this whole backyard thing is new to me after years of living in high-rises) and ombré (aka don't dye your roots for two years) hair.
Why be a cookie cutter version of someone else when you can be your fabulous, eccentric self!
Are you dotty too?

Your post popped up before I started to log off and so glad I saw it. You look great in that polka skirt and your scarf!
ReplyDeleteI am a little OCD about my desk. I like things in order at work or I can't function. One time I came back from lunch and one of my friends switched up all my stuff. Luckily for me, she is OCD too so I got her back eventually :)

Love the dress! I've never seen such big dots. They're really cute.
ReplyDeleteI'm a dotty too! I love your style and crazy personality. This is such a fun look! I too love q-tips and have a hard time censoring myself.

ReplyDeletepolka dots are such a fun print, but i think I'm more of a stripes girl myself.

I don't consider myself as dotty.. more like harsh and realistic. though when I'm with right people and in right mood, I can be all about crazy too.
ReplyDeleteyour polka dot look is really cool btw and I still love that cute little bag of yours.

Emily I was just gonna tell you that your ombre hair looks beautiful as it was the first thing I noticed when I clicked on. Love the dots with a touch of bohemian flare. Dawn suitcase vignettes xo
