While it is natural to think about bright, vibrant colours and large florals or palm trees when we think about holiday wear in the tropics, we wonder if pastels can be just as festive and fun.
This dress with her tropical botanical prints have certainly made us think so!
It is cut just for the tropics, sleeveless and not too strappy so you could just change your footwear and waltz right into a nice restaurant (dressing for occasions while on holiday isn't always the easiest thing, we know)! And it has the gentlest shades of pastel pinks, mint green, yellow on a off-white base. We actually like that the fabric isn't silky and slinky, so it lends the vibe of a serious person on holiday, if that makes any sense ;) All subjectiveness aside, it is a pretty dress that makes you feel relaxed right away.
Best fits a S.

Dusky peach-pink has somehow wriggled its way back into the modern fashion world as a compliment to the other warm neutral colours such as browns and beiges. It is a quiet, sweet and really quite versatile in-between.
This vintage 1980s/90s dress with her subtle colouring made us fall in love with pink once more. It is just a little bit orange, a little bit pink, a little bit beige, a little bit brown. And the best part is, it is piped so beautifully with a braided piping; has the best matching buttons in perfect shape and embroidered feather motifs with a cutout covered with mesh to keep things decent.
Only pockets could make this even more of a 'need' than a 'want' ;) Best fits a M - L.

Happy Diwali to all our Hindu friends!
Quite the ethereal beauty here. But wait a second, she's not just your usual pretty, young thing. She has panache, can pack a mean punch and is really more of a chameleon than you think.
This cute little multicolour dots remind us of someone who would take a hole-puncher to coloured paper and make confetti for her wedding; someone who would needle-point in the train like it's the most natural thing in the world, working with the brightest, happiest-coloured threads she can get her hands on; someone who sees the fun in making faces at monkeys on the trees and talking to retired horses in the barn.
We love that whoever is going to wear this cutie will be the most suitable person for this dress. ;) Has 2 hip pockets too!
Best fits a XS - S.

MUST HAVE! | Gardenia | Vintage 1950s 1960s Multicolored Plaid Dress
This dress is green. But we want to think of it as white. We don't know why exactly, but it just does.
Perhaps it's because it contains so many of the colours of the rainbow and as you know, together they make white. Like a ray of sunlight without actually having a hint of white in it. It is a little bit like the reflection of a good life, perhaps? When people of all colours come together, they are powerful, like a ray of sunlight. Bright, sometimes glaring, but it shines and no one can ignore it.
We like that this dress speaks volumes, that way.
Best fits a M.
