Vacation in the Tropics - The VFG Fashion Parade for the week of June 3

[denisebrain]

Escape to a tropical state of mind with the Vintage Fashion Guild! This week, the weather is sunny with a chance of chic as our members are trading in their umbrellas for sunglasses and showing off their most sizzling vintage fashion finds that evoke the sun-kissed glamour of a tropical getaway.

From flowy florals to Tapa-print tops, sun hats, sandals, and all things beach-y keen, we're embracing the laid-back luxe of island living. So, grab your favorite cocktail (here’s where an umbrella would work) and seas the day on a tropical vacay!
