I remember wearing this combination of polka dots and stripes many times (1, 2), and today's gloomy weather urged me to wear something graphic. Maybe that's why I love these dresses. I'm totally in love with this tote bag I got from Gilt's clearance...I haven't bought much clothing since the new DSLR and school-related fees were expensive but I've worn out my old black tote with carrying textbooks every day so this was justified as a replacement.
I can't believe I'm posting twice in two days. I fancied the idea of doing absolutely nothing for eight months between graduation and school restarting but I decided that doing full time research is a more economically sound decision. Adding a few styling projects I've taken on and all of a sudden I have the same amount of free time (nil) as I did before graduation...

I adore these polka dots on you. Happy to see two posts in one week. And yes- a new book bag is definitely justifiable.

Finding an apartment in the city is such a pan but the best of luck to you. I know that if you happen to have the iphone there is an app called Zillow that helps you find near by places whether is it rented, selling or foreclosed. You look lovely the pinstripe and polka dot patterns looks so bold together. =]
