Perfect for the Easter Parade!

There is something so wonderful about kiddos dressed up for Easter. All the spring colors and pretty little outfits. So, forgive me if I got carried away but I spent this weekend looking for the perfect little outfits for the hoppity poppity precious holiday.  Enjoy!

Check out this little industrious bunny working hard for her Easter eggs with a wheelbarrow full of cuteness! From Etsy seller, The Runaway Pancake.

The little laddie who wears this jaunty jacket must wear it with a red bowtie so he can match the friendly giraffe on his jacket! From Etsy seller, Baby Shapes!

These little rompers stripes are just wonderful! They remind me of that striped gum with the cartoon giraffe who was also striped. Ugh! What was that called?  Sigh! From Etsy seller, Fuzzmama.

 C’mon let’s do the Bunny Hop! From Etsy seller, REdesignkc.

Just in case your Easter will include a bit of swimming, your little lady will be well dressed in this cutie pie bathing suit! From Etsy seller, Kiki and Jules.

I have such a thing for pastel stripes. And they are perfection in this little toddler jacket and shorts set! From Etsy seller, The Robot Parade.

I bet this 20 girls whose playdates would end in fisticuffs to get this cutie pie little bunny dress!  I mean, did you see the ears, folks? From Etsy seller, Oh Sydney!

But why should only the ladies have all the funny bunny fun?  Etsy seller Hart and Sew has this wonderful DEADSTOCK romper with a little sassy bunny with a lollipop! So sweet!

Who wouldn’t want to read about Bunny Button? He looks like he’s had some pretty grand adventures! From Etsy seller, Parisian Prairie Charm.

A little chilly this Easter? No problem with this yummy yellow sweater with the happiest bunnies I’ve ever seen! It even has little side snaps for easy access. From Etsy seller, Audrey Blissful.

I could imagine this little friend being very popular as a centerpiece at the kiddie table this Easter dinner! From Etsy seller, the Dancing Wren.

And I must save the best for last! This perfect little Easter bonnet WITH matching little purse! I would have traded my chocolate Easter bunny for that beautiful set. Sigh! From Etsy seller, All Things Pretty!

Happy Monday!

Spring into Spring. Vintage Spring!

Man, I’m happy to be back after a whole lotta travel over the past two weeks.  I have four trips away from home in March. And the one thing I brought back was a nasty little cold (or really bad allergies with the addition of a rough cough), so I spent the majority of this weekend sneezing my way through boxes of Kleenex and watching Yo Gabba Gabba with the Peach. However, of course I had some time to rock out some sweet fun on Etsy pulling together some sweet vintage finds for all y’all–with an emphasis on spring. Sweet spring!

I played with this game so hard that it probably gave me a headache! Also I remember wearing the red cones on my fingers pretending they were long glamorous fingernails.  From Etsy seller, Oopsee Daisies.

Hey there tambourine man!  Well, or girl or boy or whatever, just someone buy this wonderful vintage metal tambourine! Isn’t it parade season yet?  From Etsy seller, UDA Kids!

Put this daisy dressie on your lil’ cutie and you can’t help but think of spring. Oh, those wee darling daisies. Sigh. From Etsy seller, the Marvelous Ms. Tips.

Another big girl size–8-10 for our older friends. And what girl wouldn’t want to swing into spring with this happy skirt. Perfect with a t-shirt and some kicks.  From Etsy seller 3 Ring Circus!

As you can imagine, this is the perfect little blousie for your little baby girlie.  And the little flowers are almost as sweet the peter pan collar. From Etsy seller, Twinkle Tots Vintage.

 

These darling vintage baby toys are such sweet colors and would be just as sweet as decor for the nursery as well. From Etsy seller,  Sweet Shop Vintage.

I think a kiddo can never have enough cardigans–they are perfect for the changing weather of spring. And this sweet yellow cardi is perfect!  Almost as sweet as the little lady wearing it! From our friends at Salvage House!

Umm… Could this little vintage bow tie from the seventies be any cuter?  I expect Miss Pilgrim already has a similiar one for her little boy! From Etsy seller, LHP Designs.

Zoo plus rompers equals this adorable little bit of vintage cuteness!  And the little kiddos with the balloons on it too. From Etsy seller, Vintage Pod!

Um. Yeah. Unbelievable. From Etsy seller, Star Friends On Earth.

Yeehaw! A Widdle Western for Today!

Hey folks, I’m at SXSW in Texas this week for work managing some panels for my company.  I’ve been inspired by the Lone Star so much that is has trickled down to this week’s Retro Round Up with some sweet Western goods.

Would you look at this two piece of western wonderfulness?  How much fun would this coat be over just a t-shirt with some jeans or khakis?  From Etsy seller Box of Hollyhocks.

Behold: the perfect little girl’s western shirt.  Yes, please!  From our friends from Ebay who now has an Etsy shop, the Robot Parade. SWEET!

Sometimes kiddos can’t deal with the heel of a cowboy boot, so why don’t you try these vintage Western boot galoshes. Lower heel and great for the rain too boot!  From Etsy seller, Atomic Retro Girl.

 

I must admit, I probably wouldn’t play this stunning vintage picture record, but wouldn’t it look cute on the wall? So darling! From Etsy seller, Lottzafunstuff!

 

Now, THESE vintage cowboy boots are the official winner.  Seriously. How could I not include these beauts?  From Etsy seller, In with the old. 

 

Now, this is a vintage western shirt that is actually cozy cozy flannel because it is a pajama top.  Mmm…. From Etsy seller, Haoli.

 

Oh, so darn cute. Baby town cute cute.  CUTE!  Who wouldn’t want to grab this little cowboy for a cuddle and giggle with delight! From Etsy seller, Vintage Jewelery Antiques.

 

Who doesn’t want to play Western town when Fisher Price is involved? Like with this great toy set. From Etsy seller, The Pantages.

 

Yes, I did feature a great vintage cowboy or two, but let’s get a little nod to the pioneer girl with this lovely little retro dress from 1950s.  From Etsy seller Golden Owl Vintage. 

 

 A book about cowboys?  Now, you KNOW that is a good book worth getting it. From Etsy seller, Caddywampus.

Happy Monday, folks!

This Round Up is for the “big kids”!

Hi, hi friends!  We had the most lovely weather this past weekend in the Bay Area! We had a very very mellow weekend, which was great since I have TWO business trips scheduled for this week–one to L.A. and one to Austin for SXSW. But I did have time looking online for some vintage goodies to share with you.  I had a request for larger sizes, so all of the vintage pieces featured in today’s round up are size seven and up!

Happy Monday!

Wow! What a weekend! The Peach turned three this weekend and we threw her a dandy of a party! Expect to hear all about  it and all the crafty craziness that happened around it.
