Alison Hammond is no stranger to a bold print or two when it comes to her wardrobe, and one of her latest This Morning outfits is the perfect example of how to wear a pattern well. On Friday 24 May’s episode, Alison wore a beautiful oversized navy blouse with dainty white polka dots, and we’re loving how easy and effortless it is to style.
Her exact shirt was the Shiloh Spot Shirt, , from Monsoon, and it’s the perfect choice for this unpredictable British weather we’ve all been dealing with. From its classic print to its lightweight material, it’s an absolute wardrobe essential.
Made from a lovely lightweight sustainable viscose, it’s ideal for when the sun peeks back out and the temperatures rise, with its longer sleeves protecting you from sun damage whilst still being breezy enough to keep you cool. However it also gives you enough coverage to keep you warm when the wind picks up and it suddenly turns chilly.
As well as being the perfect pick for days when we get almost every weather type in quick succession, the blouse is also a classic design that’ll see you through every season and every occasion. You can never go wrong with polka dots, and the combination of navy and white is a chic, timeless style.
Pair with everything from wide leg trousers and loafers for the office or jeans and a pair of trainers for a day out. You could even team it with some denim shorts or linen trousers and sandals for a breezy holiday look.

Whilst Alison’s blouse has a subtle collared V-neckline, if you prefer a more buttoned-up look with a classic shirt fit the Fiona Polka Dot Print Blouse, , from Joanie is a great alternative.
It has a similar dainty polka dot print and comes in a black and white colour combo that’s equally timeless and stylish. However instead of a deeper neckline, it buttons all the way up to the neck, giving you plenty of styling options that you can switch up depending on the occasion.
It also comes in an inclusive range of sizes from 8-22, and if you want something a little more colourful for the summer, you can even pick between two other bold patterned versions. Keep the style inspo coming Alison!
