This spring, there's one colour combination that has completely taken me by surprise, and it's all thanks to M&S. Yes, you've probably already read me waxing lyrically about their brown and blue maxi dress, followed by their swishy polka dot print skirt in the same colour fusion. Now, the high street hero has surprised me once again, and it's all because of one especially pretty blouse in, you guessed it, brown and blue.
Enter: the Spot Print Tie Front Frill Detail Top. Much like the M&S satin skirt, it makes polka dots look incredibly fresh for the season ahead.
M&S Spot Print Tie Front Frill Detail Top
Featuring a unique spot print in varied sizes of dotted circles - a slight stray away from the traditional pattern you'd find lining the racks of the Princess of Wales' wardrobe - the top stands out from the rest of the high street blouse offering. Its colour combination also helps set it apart, adding a fresh twist.
Designed with a collar akin to the Peter Pan style that has dominated the style conversation since last February, the floaty blouse is incredibly charming. Not only that, there's pretty tie detailing on the neckline, reminiscent of the pussy bow blouse: another style that the Princess of Wales has a soft spot for.
Of course, if you're looking to fully embrace the colourful polka dot charm, pair the blouse with the suspiciously similar midi skirt in the same colour amalgamation and spotty pattern. If you'd like something slightly more pared back, wear it with any pair of jeans you own - from cigarette to wide leg - or a skirt in black or white for a contrasting formula that's incredibly stylish.
