Make A Wish Pixie Duster (Cropped Length)

$120.00

Lighthearted, whimsical, and full of magic — this design was so much fun to create! We collaged several pieces of art from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that depict symbols of good luck — including a gold wishbone from a Victorian postcard, a coin design from 1840, an evening star, and a beautiful 1755 painting of a dandelion waiting to be wished on. The banners and words reading “Make a wish with me, the best is yet to be” and “Best Wishes” are adapted from an 1880’s lithograph, and the lilacs and spring flowers adorning the whole design are symbols of hope and renewal. May this piece bring you luck and joy whenever you wear it!

“I have lost my smile, but don't worry.
The dandelion has it.”
- T. N. Hanh

“Wish on everything. Pink cars are good, especially old ones. And stars of course, first stars and shooting stars. Planes will do if they are the first light in the sky and look like stars. Wish in tunnels, holding your breath and lifting your feet off the ground.”
- Francesca Lia Block

“Maybe that's what life is... a wink of the eye and winking stars.”
- Jack Kerouac

How To Wear

+

From the moment we created this lighthearted piece, we’ve been having so much fun styling it!  Wear it over a soft pink cami with cropped denim, then add a pair of white sneakers & the matching Market Tote bag — perfect for strolling through botanical gardens on sunny days. Or level things up with a slip dress and dainty gold jewellery for an evening of dancing and stargazing! It also mixes beautifully with shades of plum, garnet, dark magenta and emerald green — so don’t be afraid to layer it over rich jewel toned solids :)

The idealist, the dreamer. Women who infuse lightness and joy wherever they go, who scatter dandelion seeds like stardust. Women who know the best is yet to be.

Making wishes is a timeless blend of hope, tradition, and a touch of magic! Most historians believe the origIn of wish-making comes from ancient Greece and Rome, where coins were tossed into fountains as offerings to water spirits, their ripples carrying dreams to unseen realms. The sight of a shooting star streaking across the night sky was thought to be a rare moment when the heavens opened, granting wishes to those quick enough to seize the chance. Even blowing out candles or sending dandelion seeds into the wind carries echoes of these ancient practices, connecting us to a long history of weaving wonder and dreams into the fabric of the everyday.
