The annual gathering of all things Rockabilly happened this past Easter weekend and was appropriately named Viva Las Vegas. In its 12th year, the convention was held at off the strip at
The Orleans where music, vendors, artists, fashionistas and classic car enthusiasts all met to celebrate of of the greatest eras in American history, the fabulous fifties! After the four hour trek to sin city, the girls and I were ready for some glamor in retro style. We grabbed our best cocktail dresses and headed for the hotel bar, took some Jager shots and then it was straight to the vendors to see what goodies we could score. More importantly we scoped out the competition...For best dressed, of course! Everyone looked great dressed in retro prints and their hair pile high in curls. After catching some great tunes we called it a night to make sure we'd get to the car show. The car show was great and we got to see some awesome cars-as well as take some pictures. Then we hit the Orleans again for night two and it was time for some gamblin'! After losing enough money which I could have bought new shoes with, I called it quits and met back with the girls for more drinks and our fill of scoping out the fifties frocks and overall we had a blast! Time to start planning next year's trip!
