There’s nothing quite as cute for summer as a vintage playsuit. Sadly the weather in the UK simply isn’t nice enough to lounge around in my garden in one of these right now, but that just makes me yearn for one even more!

Here are my favourite 10 which range from the 1950s to 1990s to modern reproductions. Which one would you choose?
