When I think of polka dots for daytime, my thoughts go straight to patterned shorts. Although they were a summer trend, there is no reason you can’t keep wearing your favorite pair into next season – just add opaque tights and a cardigan, like I did in the outfit above. Finish the look off with a cute anchor necklace for a fun nod to the nautical trend.

Although most summer-long internships are over now, I know many of you CF readers are still working while you’re in school. But even if you’re not working right now, a cute, professional-looking outfit is essential for events ranging from meeting your advisors to job interviews.

The skirt is long enough to be office-appropriate louis vuitton handbags, while the polka dot shirt is girly and fun. A big bag and girly cardigan help this look transition between many temperatures and settings. I added dotty tights for interest, but you could substitute plain tights for a more subtle look. I finished the look off with heels, but you could also wear flats instead.
