Elyssa | Vintage 1930s 1940s style retro Striped turquoise and white Day dress with Buttons detail

The story:

We are beginning to be fans of the 1980s-does-1940s silhouette. And this turquoise green/white striped beauty has just that. 

The cute asymmetrical bust cross-over flap, the white buttons , the pencil skirt.  

Everything just goes so well together and we like to think how it would look quite funky with sports shoes or hi-cut sneakers. And feminine with heels.
