Well, that's just the name that we have for fabric/clothing with small circles. We say that it is a "polka dot" fabric or dress, or whatever it is. Is that a better explanation?

That's so thoughtful of you, thank you so much! But, take your time okay? There isn't any hurry, I'm sure that you (And Thomas too) must be very busy, and have a lot of things to do.

Oh, those are such beautiful dresses, thank you for sharing Ivonne! I'm especially crazy about that orange-brown dress in the first picure in the left corner, it's great...Oh, those dresses give me thoughts! I need stairs and an entrance hall.

Oh yes, that dress is very cheap, in price- About 50 dollars. Those 3 dresses on there are cheap, if you compare those prices to todays dresses: another quality and sintetyc fabrics which I really hate them-
And to wear the wide-skirts-dresses walking "down" a huge stair !! (and of course "your" boy waiting downstairs !!): my dream !!... haha....
