Francesca | Vintage 1980s bright and bold tropical safari floral print cotton dress
The story:
Summer souls are bright and fun loving, not afraid to try new things and to be out there living the time of their lives.
They are bold and beautiful. Like this vintage 1980s beauty here with her tropical floral prints fit for a Caribbean cruise or two.
Has cute little pagoda sleeves and a laced-up bust (breezy and bold at the same time eh? ;)
Comes with 2 wide pockets and a broad matching fabric sash belt (which we think can double up as a hair-tie).
Pinned?: No.
