The reason this blog is titled "Presenting...Polka Dots" is because I do feel like this outfit was a true coming out party for this jacket. I have had this for probably 2 years and this is the FIRST time I have worn it. I think I saw it, liked it, and knew it deserved a place in my closet...but then it just never looked quite right to me when I would put it on. FINALLY...I realized, I think this thing needs to be tailored and I took it right down to my fav tailor and Voila! Here she is in all her glory :) She is very happy to meet you! Basically, I love this little jacket...Now, I say jacket, it's like a lightweight silk type material, so its great for summer at the office. I think the unique color combo is what originally made me want to pick it up. The peach and navy makes it a little unique and it helps that I am, for some unknown reason, obsessed with navy right now. Anyway, paired with with some jewelry pieces that I love to bring this all home. The navy bubble necklace was really a smart purchase and I have gotten some great use out of it.  You'll see some of this in future posts :) The neutrals of the gold watch and bracelet and earrings and nude flats round out the look. Since there is so much going on with the jacket and the necklace, no need to get crazy with the shoes and other jewelry. 

Here's to hoping this Memorial Day weekend has better weather and I can follow through on my original plan of having my bathing suits be my wardrobe this weekend :)

Also to ALL my fellow pinterest lovers! I have been adding my the sets I create in polyvore on Pinterest, so if you ACTUALLY like the outfit if you could also "like" or "pin" on pinterest I would LOVE it :)
