    50's sock hop ideas, please

    Hey! I'm going stag to a fiftie's sock hop with my parents and several of their friends. I don't want to mess with a poodle skirt, but, I want to dress up. I have shoulder length hair. I want to do something cool with an outfit and with my hair. Any suggestions of links to photos or sites would be greatly appreciated! I kinda want to just stick with jeans. Thanks to anyone who can help! - Kari

    Ok so that's getting into the 60's. Anyway, here's my favorite website, hope it helps a bit. http://www.fiftiesweb.com/fashion/fashion.htm

    The Outsiders! Argh! That's one of my all time favorites! Thanks for the site, I'll check it out. I'm kindof just wanting to look at photos from the time period, and, create a really simple outfit from those. The hair is what I want to really work on! Thanks again!

    Tie a thick ribbon in it with a bow slight leaning to one side.

    Hi

    What you need are those pointy eyelasses and a beehive hairdo with a neck scarf.

    Like this:




    For more beehive hairdos, go to Google images and enter "beehive hairdo." You'll get more pictures.

    Have fun!
