Waking Up In Vegas

Well, we over here at xoxo.chic love Katy Perry. Not only does the girl have a wicked attitude, she's also got that kitschy, quirky style to boot. Who else do you know would brazenly croon about kissing the same member of the fairer gender or boldly proclaim her support by emblazoning Adam Lambert's name across the back of her cape when she performed on Idol? She's flamboyant, wild; figuratively, a rockstar at what she does and a rising style icon with a fashion line coming up soon. It's no surprise that she's got us hooked ever since she burst onto the scene donning that red and white polka-dotted 60's bustier on her album cover. Not just that, that seems to be the very start of her single-handed bringing back the polka-dot phenomenon. It's retro, it's fun, we're loving it!

Polka dots on album covers, during concerts, magazine shoots, red carpet appearances and most recently, even making an appearance in her new Waking Up In Vegas music video.

So, why are we not surprised to see our other favourite fashionistas donning polka-dotted pieces as well?

Everyone from timeless style queens like Eva Longoria, Cameron Diaz and Eva Mendes; to the punk of Gwen Stefani and Avril Lavigne; pop princesses Hilary Duff and Jessica Simpson; boho-icon Nicole Richie, and the young rising hot ones like Lauren Conrad, Twilight's Kristen Stewart, and 90120's very own Shenae Grimes.

Oh, we're definitely convinced that the dot fever is going to be here for awhile. Which is why, we've got this funky piece, named after Katy Perry's new ditty, in tribute to her bringing back the dotty retro-esque love.

The 60's are coming back, and boy, are we embracing it. Nothing screams high-fashion more than this kitschy buttoned polka-dotted boyfriend shirt. We're sure you seen more than enough 'em boyfriend shirts to last you a lifetime over the past few months, but we're willing to bet that you've never gotten one so boldly polka-dotted and fashion state-ment making. With a smocked waist and cutesy Peter Pan collars, this long shirt is reminiscient of reincarnated 1960 dresses; only now more sexed up and more funky mod. We think this goes best with plain leggings, bold accesories, high high heels and a casually slung hobo or bucket bag over your shoulder. And at only RM35, we also think it's a major steal!
