Hello? Hello! | Vintage 1960s 1970s Kitschy Applique Parrot Tropical palm tree motif Embroidered Cloud and Birds Popover Dress

The story:

Sometimes we love a bit of kitsch ;) And in the brightest, happiest-colorer appliqués and embroidery, all the better. 

This vintage 1960s 1970s pop-over style dress is great worn loose and baggy, with leggings and cute thick-strapped slip-ons. It screams of long weekends and holidays by the beach, but also perhaps just someone wanting to have a good time out in town, throwing caution to the fashion-winds! 

We just know someone quirky and fun will totally carry this beauty off! 

Our favourite part: the little clouds and embroidered birds near the neckline :P 

The last photo of what we think it will look like with the sleeves taken off (just another real cool look altogether!)
