About Polka Dot Lady:

About Polka Dot Lady: More than 11 years ago, I started writing blogs about Claire Justine. I’ve come to the realisation that despite the fact that I’m about to be 50, I’ve liked polka dots for the past 15 years and I have no plans to stop. 

I, therefore made the decision to develop a brand-new blog just for them. 

Since I only ever wear polka dots, my daughter dubbed me the “polka dot woman,” and my son, who was trying to get me to focus on one thing instead of everything, helped me come up with the name.
