Florida Fashions...

"Hot enough for ya?" I'm still not exactly sure how to answer that question when I get asked, but what I do know is how to dress in our sun fun weather without sacrificing individual style. Don't avoid buying a vintage treasure just because you think it is too hot to wear them! We've got some great pieces at FOUND that will keep you cool in all definitions of the word.
If you have visited us before, then you know everything in our store is separated by era (between the 1950's and 1980's) for your convenience. Listed below are some weather appropriate outfits that are broken down by the same eras.

1950's- This adorable hourglass dress is short sleeved and made from a thin poly/rayon blend. It has a gorgeous plum and white houndstooth pattern, with the same plum color outlining the collar, sleeves, and front pockets. Large fabric buttons run along the front of the dress($35). We've paired this dress with a comfortable pair of grey peep-toe sling back heels($30). Very cute!1960's- Take a look at this sleeveless mini! The fabric looks like the flowers have been painted on in vibrant purple, green, and blue hues($40). We added a brown leather belt($20) and brown woven purse($30) to contrast the bright colors of this fantastic outfit.
1970's- The cropped picture is of a stunning sleeveless maxi dress by designer Don Luis De Espana($45). The colors of this beauty remind me of cantaloupe and honeydew, very soft oranges and greens. Two rows of matching fabric lie under the bust of the dress, giving it that feeling of legs for days that every gal loves about maxi dresses. Wear this with a wooden beaded necklace and strappy sandals.
1980's- This is a super fun outfit. The sleeveless top has a Aztec print in pink, grey and blue with an adorable tie at the neckline($25). The acid wash skirt with it is high waisted with a tulip shaped top($30). We added white pumps that have a triangle cutout design($30) to complete our outfit.
I hope this encourages you to show weather who's boss. Come visit us soon for more great ideas to beat the heat!
