additional etc.

• sock hop bows (with previous description): Grab your poodle skirt and your bobby socks and rock out like it's 1955.Or, you know, modernize a bit. This sweet blue bow is sewn from cotton polyester blend fabric, and secured on to a felt backed clip that'll stay put while you "jitterbug", "jive" and "Lindy hop" the night away.
