Sock Hop Outfit for Tall 11 Yr Old Girl

My daughter needs an outfit for her sock hop at school. She always wants to go to Queen of Hearts, but it's very pricey and I can't see spending a lot of money for a 5th grade dance. Any ideas? Her twin brother needs something too, but it's easier to just do jeans and a white t shirt for him. We live in Plano (Custer/Legacy).

What can I do next?

pony tail tied with a scarf if she has long hair. a white blouse not tucked in and rolled up jeans. Keds like sneakers with white socks. She can wear jewelry if she likes, but to really top it off go out and find yourself a cheap pair of glasses that are kind of wing tipped or jeweled. Voila! You can probably borrow everything and not spend a dime. If she really wants to wear a skirt I'm thinking you can get a cheap one at goodwill store and paint a poodle with craft paint. Or if you can sew get some cheap felt to make the skirt.

Of course brother should roll the sleeves on his white t-shirt, and if you can find some candy cigarettes be sure to tuck them into the arm of his rolled up sleeve. greased hair combed back of course.

There are some really cute sock hop skirts and accessories at a booth at Antiqueland in Plano.(Across the street from Collin Creek mall.) They are affordable and the lady that owns the booth does a really great job Have fun!

This is a big age and I would do anything I could to make it a great time for her...

That said....sounds like Queen of Hearts is out of the question...........try Party City and US Toy. BOTH in Plano.

Maybe you will find something. If not, try the craft stores Michaels and Hobby Lobby
