Wear all neutrals for a sleek and modern look: Wear accessories in the same color scheme as your dress. If your dress is black and white, wear it with black and white accessories for a monochromatic outfit.

Wear the right belt: Wearing a belt with a dress can accentuate your waist and break up the polka dot pattern. Experiment with different areas of your waste until you find the best spot for the belt on you.

Keep the accessories neutral for a multicolored dress: If your polka dot dress has bright colors, wear neutral colored accessories. Pairing bright polka dots with bright accessories will make the outfit too distracting.

Wear simple jewelry: You can spruce up your polka dot dress by wearing jewelry. Don’t go overboard on the jewelry, otherwise your outfit will have too many different distractions. Keep your jewelry simple and don’t wear too much. Polka dots are not the time for large earrings or a statement necklace.

Choose a bag to match your outfit. A purse or bag can be used as an accessory to bring your whole outfit together. Keep your bag in the same color scheme as the rest of your outfit. You can make your bag the bright focal point of your outfit against a neutral-colored dress. The size of the bag will also depend on the look you want to achieve. For a more casual look, go for a larger bag, but for a classy affair, you could carry a clutch in a solid color.
