Aren’t we lucky to be living at a time when Tumblr has made dreamy images so accessible? In fact, if you’re into a style I call the “new retro,” you have a true appreciation for ’70s, ’80s and ’90s design. And so do today’s featured Tumblrs. In fact, their curators have a keen eye for collecting old and new images that are steeped in retro style, and we continue this week’s “dreamy” theme by showing you the best of the best.

1. Electri-Cute

Bring on the dreamy cuteness! Electri-Cute features the kitschy, the retro, the sci-fi, the candy-colored, and of course, the cute and the dreamy. Plenty of ’80s-style images abound, as do all things beautifully vivid. We get a taste of the pastel glory at the top of this post.

2. Braceli

Like product design? You’ll love Braceli, which flows like an ever-streaming collection of unforgettable art and truly unique items (including some irresistible pics of junk food). Even better is the vibrant geometry created by the grouping of carefully selected images.

3. queenpalms

Iridescent. Prismatic. Aquatic. Tropical. Queenpalms has the power to transport you to another place. And this place is shimmering, glamorous, and filled with both technology and nature. Did we forget to say dreamy?

4. stickr fan

Remember that sticker collection you had when you were a kid? Luckily stickr fan has taken to Tumblr to share a colorful collection from 1985. Rainbows, unicorns, stars… It’s an ’80s fantasy like no other!
