Polka Dot Lady

Polka Dot Lady. Hello friends and happy Monday. Welcome to my new blog, Polka Dot Lady.  I love all things polka dotty so thought I would share my wardrobe here, in a whole blog dedicated to polka dots!!  Hello, lovelies, and thank you for visiting Polka Dot Lady, my personal style blog. I'm Claire, a blog-loving mother of four from Nottinghamshire in the UK. About Polka Dot Lady : I've been writing blogs on Claire Justine for more than 11 years. I've realised that I've loved polka dots for the past 15 years and that I won't be losing that affection anytime soon as I quickly approach 50.  So I decided to start a brand-new blog specifically for them. My daughter dubbed me the "polka dot lady" since that's all I ever wear and my son, who was trying to encourage me to concentrate on one subject, instead of everything and helped me come up with the name. Polka Dot Lady: Are you a fan of Polka Dots? spots, or any kind of dotty clothing?  If so, stick around

Large Vacuum Storage Bags: Bargain Of The Year

Large Vacuum Storage Bags: Bargain Of The Year. Hello friends. Happy Monday. If you cutting down on buying clothes this month but fancy buying a little treat for yourself, I recommend investing in some of these large vacuum storage bags! Large Vacuum Storage Bags: Bargain Of The Year: I was looking for something in Home Bargains to store some of my summer clothes away and stumbled upon these. There were 2 in a box and wait for it, £1.99 a box. So around a pound each. I brought 2 boxes. I was not expecting great things as they were so cheap. They are not the best quality but when they split, I will buy some more expensive ones, as I love the idea of them.

Eventually, I find some.  Street Art Saturday In Nottingham: These photos were taken in Nottingham on Saturday  29th June 2019. We have not traveled to Nottingham this year with COVID-19 so I do not know if it is still here or not!?
