Elegant Vintage 50s Beaded Blouse Attached Scarf -
SOLD
So elegant and chic, this rich navy blue top has such potential. We see it looking extremely fabulous with a white or cream slim pencil skirt. It's really quite exotic looking with that attached chiffon scarf. That gives it some Hollywood glamour...just flip the scarf over the shoulder and
voila...insta-movie star.
This is made of a soft medium weight jersey. It's certainly not heavy or thick. There's a long metal zipper in the back. Of course, you're noticing the key feature--all of those mother of pearl shells dripping off the faux-pockets and the scarf.
We think this is a really great piece and it makes the idea of finding out more about Ilsa Engle Boutiques very intriguing. Judging by this blouse, it must have been quite a lovely place.
