Last Call on the Retro Swap Meet

Today is the last day of the Retro Swap Meet being held on The Wash Sim. The event has gone over very well, I just sadly had a lot of RL to deal with lately, so I only manage to get the time to tell you about it today, the last day.

I will be showing my top picks from the event, as there was just so much, I could not cover it all for you.

All items in the event are priced from L$0 to L$10.

There happens to be a lot of male items out for grabs this time around. I'm not sure if it's due to a smaller group of designers, so there wasn't an overload of female items, or just the designers themselves finally giving the men some love!

Hair - The Stringer Mausoleum - Allegory in Tango Tipped - Not Free
Shirt - SD Wears - Bygone Shirt in Red - Retro Swap Meet Item (L$10)

There was so much to choose from, so it was hard to narrow my picks down, but this was the female outfit I made up.
