#220 Rocking out at Collabor88

I dont usually bother trying to get into events the first (or second or third!) day unless there is a special reason - well this month's Collabor88 gave me a reason for fighting the crowds and lag - vintage!  l am a huge fan of vintage/retro clothing in sl, particularly anything Rockabilly or 50's related - in my first sl incarnation over 7 years ago I spent months and months trying unsuccessfully to find vintage clothing - I am so glad things have changed!

Anyway, today's outfit is pretty much entirely from this round of Collabor88 , shirt, hair, shoes!  I was particularly excited about the flatties, I have been hunting for SLink compatible flats just like this, and bonus - bones!  Sorry, that was my inner pirate speaking.

The post with no name (because the mess in my invo stole it)

"Love teaches even asses to dance"

French proverb

Every week I find my way to LIV-Glam at some point to see what their offers are - thankfully they keep them up all week, so it is rarely a case of "too late".  Here I am wearing Stacy which was 49L for Secret Wednesday.  There are 6 different colours of flower hem via the HUD system of which I am so enamoured (anything that stops invo clutter has to be a good thing).

The  hair I have on is new from Tameless, and is also operated via HUD, yay!  I was so pleased when I saw this style as it is completely different to any style I have in my invo, and I have a LOT of hair!  The headband is texture change, and I love the three plaits and the wispy strands at the side of the face.

Finally, I just had to show you this quirky Vintage DJ ring I found from [MAGIC NOOK] at the Dressing Room Fusion.
