The Moodboard Dress: How to Style the Dotted Cami 3 ways

by Dwalwa Chisolm on July 11, 2025

If you're the kind of girl whose closet is part mood board, part emotional support system, this one's for you.

The dotted cami dress from DwalwaMae House of Dresses isn't just cute. It gets you.

With its ruffled hem, twisted straps, and airy, printed dotted pattern, this dress doesn’t perform, it just fits. Like something made for your mood, not just your body.

Whether your vibe is black or mint green, this dress was made to move with you, not against you. The dress has a soft lining underneath that keeps it from clinging to your body, even on warm days.

Because let’s be honest, nothing ruins a good mood like a dress that turns sweaty and sticky by 3pm.

1. A Midday Tea & Book Run

Pair it with flat sandals, oversized sunnies, and your favorite lavender matcha. Add a tote bag (preferably with a notebook inside — you know the ideas always hit after page 42) and let the breeze do the rest.

Style Tip: Layer with a light cropped cardigan if the café AC gets a little too enthusiastic.

2. Gallery Dates & Golden Hour Nights

The dotted pattern makes this dress artsy without being chaotic. Add a slick bun, your boldest earrings, and a kitten heel. Whether you're headed to a local gallery or rooftop dinner, the vibe is flirty, feminine, and still you.

Style Tip: The lining works overtime here — no dress sticking to your back during warm nights, just the kind of ease that lets you focus on the moment.

3. Balcony Journaling & Barefoot Lounging

You don't need a reason to dress up.

This cami was made for slow mornings, open windows, and self-reflection. Wear it barefoot or with fuzzy socks while you journal, playlist humming in the background.

Style Tip: Add a mug of herbal tea and a messy bun — suddenly, you're the main character and the editor-in-chief of your life.


Why the Print Works. (Even in 2025)

The dotted design is part nostalgic, part elevated. It gives visual texture without screaming for attention, meaning it lets you stay the focal point. In a world of loud logos and overdone prints, this one whispers style without sacrificing your softness. If you've ever wanted to wear pattern without feeling like it's wearing you, this is the dress.


Black or Mint Green? Here's How to Choose.

Black = Timeless, works year-round
Mint Green = Soft, unexpected, perfect for warm weather or creative moods

Or you can do what most of us do when we can't decide... and grab both. Because real versatility is a form of self care.
