Polka dots for late summer

At the end of August/beginning of September I always feel melancholic. It’s officially still summer, but the light is slowly changing. We can almost see autumn on the horizon, but I’m not really ready to let summer go yet. That’s why I’m enjoying these last days of summer to the fullest. Dive into the sea one last time this year, taste the salt on your tongue and enjoy the warming rays of sunshine on your skin – our summer vacation is now ending. Before I finally dig the fall clothes out of the closet, I’m hoping for a wonderfully mild September. Before that happens, I’ll share with you what will probably be my last summer look for this year.

Polka dots for late summer

I bought my lovely little polka dot dress second hand. In my opinion, the small dots are a typical summer pattern – especially in the combination of red and white.

So whenever I think back longingly to August, I’ll wear it in September – if the temperatures allow it, of course – and just pretend I’m still on summer vacation.
