What cute chickies. I love vintage Easter Greetings, even if some of them air on the side of creepy - ie, when personified animals are doing strange things in antiquated clothes. This one manages to escape that description, though. Happy Easter, everyone, from you to me.

All these years and I never knew The Ditty Bops were covering this song performed by Ms. Betty Grable, the hair envy of my life. Actually, this goes beyond pure hair envy: I just want to be her. Anyway, the lyrics are altered, but The Ditty’s have obviously taken from this version!
What a doll! I just came across this lovely vintage donning beauty on her blog, Sweetheart of a Rodeo. I love how she makes vintage doable on a day-to-day basis with her mismatched coordination. So fun.
