Decorating with dots…
February 5, 2013
I love polka dots. I recently bought a peachy-pink clutch bag with black polka dots {you can see it here} and this purchase just reminded me of how much I love this simple pattern of lots of little circles. While I love it on clothes and bags, I think decorating rooms, especially kids rooms, with polka dots is a great idea too. So I went on the hunt for some cool polka dot adorned rooms and these were my favourites:
Love this random scattering of neon dots. It’s quirky and fun.
A cute way to add polka dots to a little girls room and you could even buy plain lanterns and dot them yourself.
Finally, go for a whole wall of teeny tiny dots that works in both an adults and a kids space.

Going dotty for polka dot shoes
April 4, 2012
I have a huge soft spot for polka dots especially for children, so when I saw these polka dot shoes it was instant love. Made in Japan by Sayang Design, these shoes are handcrafted in soft leather and they’re designed by parents who have paid attention to every single detail from style to comfort. The lace-up ones would look cool on boy or girl and no little girl could go wrong wearing any of the gorgeous ballet pumps.
These polka dot shoes come in a range of colours including some plain ones that are extremely wantable too. You can visit Sayang Design to see the collection. Unfortunately they don’t ship internationally but Rakuten (Japan’s global marketplace) have a selection and they ship to several countries.
11 Polka dotted lovelies
September 26, 2011
I love polka dots. It’s such a simple design that works so well on many things, especially things for kids. I’ve picked out some polka dotted lovelies for you and your bambinos:
1. These polka dot ballet shoes were the inspiration behind this post. When I saw them, it was instant lust. How adorable are they?! I love the red and white with the black trim and bow. So stunning. They’re made by Sayang Design, a Japanese store with the most delicious shoes for kids.*
2. This bambi-esque tee is made special with the addition of the navy blue polka dots. So sweet. This too is from a Japanese store and this store is called Enjoy 2u 2u 4u.*
3. A baby shower invite with chicks and polka dots. I’m liking the blue-brown colour combo and the simple design. Love the little chicks too. This polka dots baby shower invite comes from an Etsy store called Paper by Jill M.
4. A little mustard coloured polka dot pencil case by Lale, one of my favourite French brands. Lale also make very chic retro inspired suitcases for kids and mama’s and lovely girly hair clips too. This polka dots pencil case is from smallable.com where you’ll find lots of Lale’s other goodies too.
5. More gorgeous shoes by Sayang Design. These ones are perfect for boy or girl, don’t you think?
6. Vintage inspired cushions by a cool French store called Les Choses Bizarres. The store name means ‘weird things’ but the goodies on offer are definitely more wonderful then weird! Visit Les Choses Bizarres where you’ll find these polka dot cushions for kids as well as some vintage looking bibs, pencil cases and more.
7. A navy and white polka dot cardigan for the girlies. I love the hint of red thrown in. This is yet another Japanese find made by Cri de Joie and comes from a store called Esserini.*
8. I couldn’t resist this polka dot felt garland. The vibrant colours and the simple circle shapes are just so attractive. I found this over on a blog called Living with Punks where there’s a tutorial so you can make your own.
9. Wow! Loving this navy polka dots satchel so much. So chic, so stylish. It could be used as a school bag but this one’s really for all you mama’s. Made by Zatchels you can get it at Liberty’s or try Zatchels own site where they have many colours on offer including a bold and beautiful red one. Seriously tempting!
10. A very quirky and cool cloth doll wearing a bright orange polka dot dress. This doll is hand made in Israel and comes from Timor’s etsy store. All her cloth dolls are handmade and are one of a kind so once they’re gone, they’re gone!
11. Last is another pair of shoes from Sayang Design for the boys. Love the teal colour. I think you’ve probably guessed by now that I’m crazy about Sayang Design’s shoes for the bambinos!
