Happy Laundry Day Vintage
Such an awesome retro mod print in bright happy paisley oranges, pinks, mauves and yellows!
We imagine someone wearing this in an ad on TV back in the 50s/60s, with the neat, curled hair, a beach umbrella and some fake sand behind, and a cool martini in hand ;)
Though originally it is meant to worn on the beach, with bikini bottoms underneath, you could totally wear it like a peplum top, with high-waist denim jeggings or jeans or even capri pants!
Has smocked sides though it is no longer very stretchy (if you need it to be, you could always put in elastic threading easily). Has built-in bra pads and adjustable straps!
