Do you like polka dots?

Apparently, our just turned 13 year-old son, Ben, does. He bought me a magenta blouse with white polka dots for Hanukkah. Lots of polka dots. Ben was really pleased when I said I liked it. Hubby paid for the blouse but I think that he had different motives. The blouse has, um..., er..., a very interesting neckline.
Here is a picture of Ben and of me in the blouse.



Oh! If you met my Mom, my Aunt Lotty and my cousin Lynnie, you would know it is heredity, not surgery.

The picture didn't show up for me, but i got a kick out of your description Hehe no worries- i like polka dots We're having a clover green wedding cake with white polka dots for our wedding this spring

i'm just not sure about wearing them.... but for your sons sake you at least have to wear it around the house and pretend to like it if it's not cute

I like polka dots, but I can't wear them.

It's a very pretty top and the neckline isn't that revealing. It has a nice cut to it. And the colour was a great choice for you. It looks really pretty on you.

Haha couldn't see the pic, but I got the neckline thing!!
I know the heredity thing too... Oh boy do I!!

Not really - if I don't look at them too long, I'm ok, but after awhile they make me cross-eyed

I have a polka-dot skirt! So I like 'em, it just depends where I put them. I couldn't get away with a polka-dot top. Almost all my tops are solids.

I like polka dots!!!!

Your son got a polka dot blouse??? Around here a blouse is a formal woman's shirt.......


Edit...... Oh my gosh...... I just realized I read your thread wrong !!!!!!!!! I thought he bought it for himself! I can't see the picture.....I'm going to blame it on that

What a pretty blouse! And you look very pretty in it - not too revealing at all! I like polka dots, BTW - I acutally have a 3 piece luggage set that is black with BIG red patent polka dots on it! And I can always find the luggage and I get lots of compliments on it!

I want to see this infamous picture! Why isn't it showing up?

I'm not sure, it shows up fine for me!

The color looks really good on you, btw!

I can't see the picture, either. I like polka dots, in moderation. It doesn't sound like there's anything moderate about your blouse, though.

I think it looks nice though.

It looks very nice on you. I love the color. I prefer the small dots like that on most things, but sometimes big, bold ones look good, too. I guess it depends on what they are on.

I can't see the pic either what do I need to update on my computer?? I REALLY want to see this!

I'm not a huge fan of polka dots (where did they get that name?), but some things are cute. They always remind me of Minnie Mouse.

If you son bought it for you, and you don't like it, you can just wear it around the house to make him happy, and if you husband likes it....maybe he has a Minnie Mouse fantasy going on! (sorry, was that too much?). Either way, just enjoy it (but I still would love to see it!)

The pic didn't show up for me, but I hate polka dots. I am chubby so they don't look good on me at all.
