Polka Dot Pants in Action

Remember when I found an affordable pair of polka dot pants? I know the look isn't for everyone, but I've always loved polka dots and at under $20, these seemed low risk.  My review: the quality isn't great (they're a really thin rayon) but they are extremely comfortable (bordering on feeling like pajama pants) so, well worth it!

Today,  I paired them with a simple black button-down and pumps to let the pants be the star, however--next time I pull them out--I'm thinking might step it up with a bright colored oversized sweater.

Have you been experimenting with printed pants?  Let me know, I'd love more inspiration!

Polka Dot Pants for Less

It's hard for me to pass up polka dots!  I especially loved these Madewell polka dot trousers when I saw them in their fall lookbook, but I wasn't prepared to spend $98 on a style I might get sick of quickly.

(Madewell Salt & Pepper Slouch Pants, $98)

Lucky me, I recently spotted a similar pair at Forever 21, and I had to share: these polka dot trousers are just $19.80, plus free shipping!

Hopefully the quality will last a couple wears!  Unlike both photos above,  I think I'll be styling mine with a fun pair of pumps and maybe a colorful blouse.  I'll share more details when I get them!
