Vintage 80s tropical flare skirt dress

Second day into the week. It’s raining cats, dogs and fishes outside.

But keep the spirits up, and just keep swimming… Just keep swimming. Lovely advice from Dory the flounder from Disney’s Finding Nemo. We live by it! 😉

Personal favorite: 80s vintage flare dress with a unique structured waist.
Best fits a M. 38″-27″-free@the hips. Loose fit at the top!

WiFi O orange | Vintage 1960s 1970s Gradient ombre orange Graphic print dress Is it just us or do these look like the logo for the WiFi signal? Wouldn't this be just great for a funky someone who works in telecommunications or perhaps someone who is just on the same wavelength as you :) To think these were made probably 40 to 50 years ago, it must have been on a stroke of futuristic genius ;) Comes with comfy, slightly stretchy material, cute cap sleeves and an elastic waist! Best fits a S - M. For more details and to purchase, please visit www.shophappylaundryday.com

Don't underestimate the simplicity of this dress. It could actually go the 1940s route with the comfort of the 1980s. Add a turban or head-wrap for drama. Or just a simple, loose top-knot for a played-down look. The details deserve a little attention too: 1) Boxy, loose-fit for utmost comfort 2) Buttons down the V-back. Sexy! 3) Elastic waist. For buffet days ;) Best fits a M - L. For more details and to purchase, please visit www.shophappylaundryday.com

{ NEW IN! } In black and white, this reminds us of the 40s and 50s, when movie stars were sexy but in monochrome. And the era really speaks to us, for all the detailed work they did, the subtle touches in the acting, perhaps because nothing was in color, but everything in structure and movement. And this dress we think, has both. The stripes so carefully placed in the bust, the white such a gleaming contrast, and the silhouette so still yet so moving. It is like the 80s prom dress done so well it could have lived in the 50s. Zips at at the back and has boning in the bust to help hold the ladies up ;)

As the end to the first day of a new day draws close, we can’t help but wonder what the new year might bring. Whatever comes our way, we’ve decided to start things off with positive vibes! So here is our 2019’s first listing: This cheery red and white vintage 1960s/70s shirt blouse and her frilled sleeeves. She brings with her a promise of happy moments and smiles all around. We love how she fits so snugly but yet covers up well. She would be the perfect match with a pair of high-waist dark denim jeans. Wde-cut and cropped for a more modern look, paired with white sneakers lined with blue. Or for a truly vintage look, why not try a pair of bell-bottoms or perhaps a denim wiggle skirt (we have that somewhere in out shop ;) shirred at the back so there is some give at the waist area, and tied-front. Best fits a S. For more details and to purchase, please visit www.shophappylaundryday.com

2018 has been bright, happy and filled with gorgeous folks like you 😉 Thankful for all that has passed and all that hasn’t shall also pass. Wishing all of our Happy Laundry Day customers old, new and future, a wonderful start to 2019! 😘❣️🎆🍾🥂

Tiger stripes. Or ferns in a forest. In the 4 years since our shop has opened its doors, and in the decades we have been collecting vintage, we have only come across this print twice. The first, in brown, on a midi skirt. It has since gone to a good home, though we occasionally think of it fondly. But this one really takes the cake. A full dress, and in one of our favourite color and print. So well made, and well preserved. From the tucks at the shoulders and the tiniest hint of a cap sleeve, to the dynamic flow of the skirt, the long ribbon neck-tie that makes up a fab pussy-bow and the jet-black buttons. We love this and if this fit us, we would have kept it in a heartbeat! Best fits a S. For more details and to purchase, please visit www.shophappylaundryday.com
