Cutie Car




I think this might be our first car posting but heck, I couldn’t help falling in love with this sweet 1959 Goggomobil. These German microcars were produced from 1957-69 and are a wee ten feet long with a top speed of 52 mph -but- get between 50-55 miles to the gallon! Try to top that Smart cars! I found this video on YouTube by the new owner of one, and we want to give him a Hello There Cutie lets go for a ride shout out! xxxo

Cherry-licious Cute




When we hear of something being cooked up by "the folks in North Carolina," soda isn't exactly the first thing that comes to mind. Nevertheless, Cheerwine is a yummy cherry-flavored soda made w/real cane sugar(!) in the hills of NC since 1917. With that adorable retro packaging, it's a lot less likely to get you arrested than that other drink too... xxxo

Sassy Valentine's Cuties



This year, I'm sending out some fabulous retro (and cheeky!) Valentine's that I found in the Castro at Cliff's Variety. These remind me of the Valentine's of my youth, and wonder if any equally sassy ones will find their way to me... xxxo

Organised Cute



After a calendar, I always need an agenda to keep my dates straight... Adore this sweet squirrel with his pink walnut and the bright colors on the cover of this agenda. Add in the retro vibe, I think this could make everyday a happy cute day, don't you? xxxo

Superdawg Cuties



"Who" you might be asking "are these two cuties on a box?" Why let me answer that... they are Maurie and Flaurie of Superdawg in Chicago. In addition to being able to see them at their drive-in location, you can also spy M & F at Midway airport. We adore their retro cool illustration style, and how Flaurie is kinda shy while Maurie flexes his muscles to impress her. Total cuties!!! xxxo

For Chi-town Lou on his b-day

Beware Cuties



"Beware! If you see a spook, Or hear a noise that's eerie as can be- If you get scared on Halloween- Call out- But not for me!" I admit, I'd call out for the cutie illustrations and fabulous retro typography too... xxxo

Pink Is For Cute



"Pink Is For Girls"... adore it! This cutie in her pink lacquer barrel tub is happily chatting on her pink phone while covered in bubbles from her Lustre-Creme pink shampoo. A question: Why is her hair dry and in a perf updo with ribbons? I digress... adore the groovy giant pink bubbles and the Mad Men-esque copy (click to expand!) of "he'll notice we have a delightful pink fragrance." Hello there cutie retro ad! xxxo

Fashionably Cute...


We adore retro on Hello here Cutie, and this new illustration has a fabu 50's feel to it! Between the whimsical bubble top, happy yellow and sweet butterflies, this is our fashionable idea of cute. Now where can I get that outfit? xxxo
