Polka dots are back – though did they ever really leave? This season, the high street is embracing the playful print across everything from timeless dresses to trend-led jeans.

Our pick? Brown polka dots. Softer than the classic black and white design, they offer a fresh, more understated take.

An easy way in, M&S’s Polka Dot Lace Detail Button Through Top, in a chic cream and brown colourway.

Costing just £34, this brown polka dot style is a high street steal and is the perfect way to elevate any pair of jeans or tailored trousers this season.

For an off-duty weekend look, team this polka dot number with brown or cream wide-leg jeans and suede ballet pumps. If there’s still a chill in the air, layer this outfit with a brown funnel neck jacket or a beige cropped trench coat for a head-to-toe tonal look.

Or if you’re heading somewhere warm this summer, try styling this top with a pair of linen jorts and neutral toe-ring sandals.
