Acceptable in the 50's

I went to a Hen do on Friday night at a super tacky indian buffet/karoke/night club thing. Haha. It was actually quite fun though and there was a distinct lack of penis boppers, condom veils or 'bride-to-be' sashes, all of which are my worst nightmare.

Anyhoo, the theme was 50's chic. Being a life long lover of dressing up I always get excited at the prospect of a 'themed' night out, but sadly eras before the 90's are not my dressing up speciallity. Plus Google was not really delivering the goods in the idea stakes. In addition to all of this I wasn't keen on spending any money on a whole new outfit, so I just bodged together using some old items in my wardrobe, plus spent about £6 on eBay, and this is what I came up with....



Glasses - eBay
Shirt  - ASOS
Skirt - River Island
Socks (they had poodles on!) - eBay
Heels - Topshop

I feel the glasses were really the star of the show, even if they were too tight and hurt my ears!

You look wicked! I hate the thought of the typical hen night props too, so awful and cringey. Sounds like a really fun night xx
