Now that is finally spring, it's time for more lightweight attire. You may think of Minnie Mouse or the '90s when someone mentions polka-dots, but think again. The trend has been completely revamped and has been worn on the runways and by many celebrities. As we can see on this week's Fashionista, polka-dots provide a fun and creative twist to our sometimes boring outfits. 

This Fashionista wears a navy blue and white Aqua blouse that is perfect to wear on a mild, sunny day. While this Fashionista's exact blouse is unavailable in stores right now, there is an Aqua tank top and dress that are very similar. The only trick thing about the polka-dot trend is that it can sometimes be a little overwhelming. If you choose polka dots, think about your size. If you are on the petite side, you should wear small to medium polka-dots and if you're a little bigger you should try bigger, bolder pieces. This Fashionista pairs her blouse with Seven jeans and a brown belt from Steph (located downtown on Lebanon St.) She also wears sand colored, Tory Burch flats that also gives her outfit a unique twist, especially since the Reva flat has inevitably become a bit exhausted.   

When you're browsing online for spring trends, don't rule out polka-dots! Try not to think of the print as childish because there is definitely a way to wear it in a feminine and sophisticated manner. Follow this Fashionista's example and add some fun to your spring 2011 closet by wearing this classic print.

Hint: Too hesitant to make a bold statement? Try adding a small element of polka-dots to your outfit by wearing these tights. While not as flashy as a blouse or dress, polka-dots tight still add a playful vibe to your outfit.
