Nancy Drew 2011 Convention Clues #10

Let's Go To The Hop!
Fabulous Fifties - Nancy Drew Style

With the classic Nancy Drew book #34, The Hidden Window Mystery, being set in 1956, the Nancy Drew Sleuths will have a fifties theme at our mystery dinner during the Nancy Drew convention. Members are encouraged to come in costume and as a favorite Nancy Drew character--either a character from this book or others. Those who don't wear costumes should wear dressy attire.
Whether you plan on doing a jive or just solving a mystery or two, get in the spirit! Here's a little inspiration to set the mood to find your thrill on Blueberry Hill:

Bobby Soxers!

Fifties Convertible Anyone?
Poodle Skirts for the ladies
Letterman Jackets for the dudes
Fifties Polka Dot Dress

The June Cleaver

Pink Ladies!
T-Birds!
Fifties Rock 'N' Roll Dancing anyone?

I grew up in the 'fabulous fifties' but never had a poodle skirt -- still have saddle shoes and my high school sweater I use for class reunions. Now I'm torn between dressing up with peacock accessories or doing the bobby soxer theme!

Kathleen,

Don't feel like you have to go with a bobby soxer/poodle skirt--I know some who are just going dressy and with peacock accessories so that's OK too! Or you could dazzle us with a costume change halfway through and mix it up with both ideas--ha!
