Oh JohnnyWhizzBang!

I'm back and it feels sooo good! I've been on a week long hiatus from VintageDanielle to concentrate on a  psychology paper and other projects. It's great to be writing for pleasure rather than for grade.

On a different note, it's pretty obvious that I love all things vintage and retro. It's been my belief and of my friends' and family's that I was born in the wrong era or perhaps I was living back in the 1930-70s (Reincarnation?). I bring this up because one of my good twitter friends is the creator of the cute, vintage, and fun website, JohnnyWhizzBang. It's a nostalgic home for retro vintage pop culture, fashion, history, stories, and photographs. Johnny just redesigned the website and it looks wonderful! Honestly, whenever I need a vintage pick-me-up I visit here. It's nice to glace at the clothing, pictures, listen to music, and then to internally wish that I had a time traveler (how cool would that be?!?).

The online shop offer cute tops, full skirts, and accessories. I'm thinking of ordering the Quirky Zoo skirt. I could totally see myself wearing in during the summer time and monkeying around. Yeah a cheesy pun but I couldn't help myself :)

When you get a chance, I hope you'll visit my friend's site and see for yourself how much fun it is and soon you'll be wishing you had a time machine.

Hopping Down The Bunny Trail

Easter's on it's way! Sunday April 8 is Easter. Although my family doesn't go all out for this holiday we still try to gather around and enjoy a nice family dinner. When I think of Easter, I picture vintage inspired clothing, pastel colors like mint and pink, floral patterns, cardigans, dresses, and kitten heels.

Here are some fabulous Spring and Easter inspired outfits from ASOS Fashion Finder. Aren't they sweet, cute, and adorable?

Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year

It's here, it's finally here! Earlier this year, Pantone declared Tangerine Tango as the color of 2012, read more about it here. It was also announced that Sephora and Pantone Universe would become partners in creating a limited time collection based on Tangerine Tango.  The collection is now available and I'm super excited. If you go onto Sephora's website, there is a Sephora + Pantone Shade Finder which determines the best shade of orange and the correlated product for you based on your hair, eye, and skin color. I really enjoy 2012's color; it's fresh, vibrate, sexy, and brings up feelings of optimism. I think everyone can work an orange tone but be sure not to overdo it, no one wants to be mistaken for a pumpkin. I'm hoping to swing by Sephora and pick up the lipgloss set and duo blush set.
