Pretty Island | Vintage 1950s 1960s Tiki Contiki Plam tree Applique cutout Scalloped neckline Dress

The story:

A cruise trip to the Bahamas didn't necessary have to mean lots of flashy colour. You can do it with class and elegance too. 

And this simple black day dress with her scalloped neckline and appliqué cutout palm trees and sand dunes will be perfect fluttering in the wind, blue skies and deep blue seas in the background.
