wishful wednesdays #3

Welcome back to Wishful Wednesdays, where this vintage hummingbird posts wishlists, pretty things, inspirations, or anything she is wishing that week!  This week's Wishful Wednesday is full of beautiful vintage summer silhouettes that are also easy to wear. When it is super warm out, I still want to have a touch of vintage to my look without the hassle of having to set my hair everyday or do a full face of makeup.  I love the idea of throwing a hat or hair scarf on and calling it a day.  Or just some red lips and cute sunglasses, and bam, instant vintage flair.

1 - bird print dress, 2 - bangles, 3 - tiki print shoes, 4 - hair scarf, 5 - colourpop lipstick in avenue, 6 - red crop top, 7 - tiki print shorts, 8 - pineapple brooch, 9 - nude sunglasses, 10 - diving beauties stoneware bowl set

I was apparently feeling very tiki inspired this week! I am dying over the new Birds of a Feather print from Trashy Diva. It is SO PRETTY.  Plus there are so many colors to pull out of it to accessorize with. Other than that, give me pineapple print and hawaiian floral inspired everything else! Til tomorrow!

Despite being born and raised in Los Angeles, I have always preferred cold, rainy weather.  However, I am doing my best to embrace the warmth that has come with the end of April and beginning of May.  If I can have it my way, I will be living in skirts and dresses until September.  I especially love that mint green gingham printed midi skirt.  I may try to make that into a sewing project!  

1 - bear t-shirt, 2 - floral skirt, 3 - dalmatian pants, 4 - origami butterfly necklace, 5 - cat socks, 6 - bicycle, 7- black flats, 8 - black/white striped cat sweater

My wishlist this week ended up having way more animal-printed items than I planned, but I can't help it! I am a sucker for a cute animal.  And by the way, if you are too, you should definitely go follow the instagram account @cutepetclub.  It is a never-ending parade of cuteness!  Also, I am OBSESSED with those Dalmatian pants from Paul and Joe Sister.  If only I had the money to throw down for them. That print is so wonderful!  Our family dog when I was growing up was a dalmatian named Elmo. We got him as a puppy when I was a baby, so I have always had a special love in my heart for them.

wishful wednesdays #1

Welcome to Wishful Wednesdays where this vintage hummingbird posts wish lists, pretty things, inspirations, mood boards, or anything she is wishing that week! 

Dapper Day is coming up this weekend at Disneyland, and I can't wait! I am trying to brainstorm the perfect ensemble and am so in awe of the amazing dapper disneybounds people have done, especially  when couples or groups of friends do a theme.  If you don't know what disneybounding is, it is basically dressing up in an outfit inspired by a disney character.  Hopefully I can get one together by this weekend!

1 - floral scarf, 2 - balloon necklace, 3 - vintage shirt dresses (red,yellow,green,blue), 4 - seafoam sunglasses, 5 - smashbox liquid lipstick in miss conduct, 6 - cobb hill sandals

I cannot stop looking at pictures of vintage 1950s dresses shirt dresses. If I could, I would live in them all season in every color!  I may try to practice my sewing skills on a similar pattern soon. Other than that, springtime for me means seafoam green sunglasses and florals.  Of course, why not also throw in a beautifully deep wine lipstick from Smashbox.  If you are looking for a liquid lipstick that lasts all day but doesn't dry out, smashbox is the bomb.  It's a little pricier than other options which I wear a lot (colourpop ultra matte, sephora cream lip stain), but it does the best job of keeping my lips from getting chapped all day!
