polka dots, asheville style

central to the asheville lifestyle is a sense of calm, a laid-back vibe that can be hard to reconcile with pursuits of higher fashion. particularly with slightly louder patterns, such as polka dots, it's sometimes hard to pull them off without looking vaguely ridiculous. central to the mission of this blog is to translate high fashion in a practical, affordable, and accessible way - aka, put an asheville twist on it!
