blue and orange dress Dramatic 1970s Ronald Amey Orange Blue & Coral Print Silk Couture Dres – Shrimpton CoutureIn the 1960s if you wanted to wear something with a dramatic flare then you chose the work of Ronald Amey. He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short lived. From 1959 1969 he designed under the label Burke Amey. Joseph Burke, his partner, took care of the business side of things. In 1970s he bought out Burke and renamed the company Ronald Amey

In the 1960s if you wanted to wear something with a dramatic flare then you chose the work of Ronald Amey. He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short-lived. From 1959-1969 he designed under the label Burke-Amey. Joseph Burke, his partner, took care of the business side of things. In 1970s he bought out Burke and renamed the company Ronald Amey where he continued to produce his dramatic clothing until the label shuttered in 1976. His clothing was of very high quality and he incorporated many couture level details into their construction. All of his pieces were sewn in-house at his New York atelier

One of his signatures was to combine bold colors, prints and fabrics in interesting, unusual ways and this dress is a splendid example of that. The colors are bold and the mix is dramatic. The bodice and sleeves are sheer orange printed silk chiffon that is layered over the same printed coral ribbon silk that you see used for the skirt. This gives the top a very couture and quirky feel. The neckline is cut wide across the collarbones and it is anchored by a wide band of blue silk satin that is top-stitched in gold thread. This curves around the neckline and then down the front on either side of the notched front. The panel continues past the seamed waist and runs down the center of the skirt where it ends with a large diamond of the same fabric in brown. More of the blue runs around the hem and then is used again for the cuffs on each sleeve. The combination of the orange, coral and blue is spectacular . The heavy dose of all those prints, colors and patterns should not work but it does. The perfect finish is the wide fabric belt made of the same blue as the banding and this wraps around the waist where you can cinch it in and leave it simple as I did or tie it in a far more elaborate way. The exterior is in excellent condition with a note about the lining to review below.

Fully lined in a bright peach silk throughout except for the sleeves. Entirely hand finished. It closes with a front zipper and there are zippers on each cuff. The zippers stick a bit when you open and close them. There is shattering of the silk around each arm on the interior. The exterior fabrics are sound and show no wear at all. The exterior of the dress appears to have been worn very little. The dress is even better in person.

My Go-To Sunscreen for Every Outdoor Adventure!
Style: SPF 70, Size: 6.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The Neutrogena Beach Defense Sunscreen Spray SPF 50 has quickly become my favorite sunscreen for beach days, my Florida hot runs, and everyday outdoor activities. It offers everything I need in a sun protection product and more. Why I Love It: Excellent Protection: The SPF 50 broad-spectrum coverage does a fantastic job shielding my skin from both UVA and UVB rays. I’ve used it for hours on my runs, at the beach and never burned. Water & Sweat Resistant: I love that it stays on even after swimming or sweating. It’s labeled as water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, and it lives up to the claim. Quick & Easy Application: The spray format is super convenient. It applies evenly, dries fast, and doesn’t leave my skin feeling sticky or greasy. Great Scent: It has a light, fresh scent that smells like summer without being overwhelming. Gentle on Skin: I have sensitive skin, and this sunscreen never causes any irritation or breakouts like others have in the past. This sunscreen checks all the boxes; strong protection, easy to apply, and pleasant to wear. I’ve already repurchased it multiple times and always keep a bottle in my beach bag. Highly recommend for anyone looking for dependable and mess-free sun protection!

Best sunscreen I have
Style: SPF 70, Size: 6.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Alright, let’s dive into the Neutrogena Beach Defense Spray Sunscreen! This little gem is like your skin’s best friend on a sunny day. First off, let’s talk about the spray application—it’s so easy to use! Just a few spritzes, and you’re good to go. No more awkward rubbing in thick creams that leave you feeling like a sticky mess. The formula is lightweight and feels super comfortable on the skin. Plus, it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, which means you can splash around in the waves without worrying about your sunscreen washing away. And let’s be real, nobody wants to look like a lobster after a day at the pool! What I really love is that it provides broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays, so you can soak up the sun without the burn. Just remember to reapply, because no one wants to be that person who forgets and ends up looking like a tomato. I usually do so every hour or so if I’m in the pool or the sun is extra radiant. Overall, Neutrogena Beach Defense Spray Sunscreen is a total winner! It’s convenient, effective, and keeps your skin protected while you enjoy those sunny vibes. So grab your beach towel, slather on this sunscreen, and get ready to soak up the sun like the fabulous summer lover you are!

Get it! It's the best spray sunscreen on the market
Style: SPF 70, Size: 6.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The best spray sunscreen there is. I have very fair skin and I don't tan, I burn, but as long as I use 70+ I'm good. I've tried a lot of sprays and what makes this one my favorite is that it feels great on the skin even moisturizing, sprays very well until empty and it doesn't pill up on my skin when I rub it. I've never gotten a sunburn with it and it smells great too. I will never use any other sprays again.
