All the retro-inspired pictures of an outfit that I styled up to attend a performance of The Pink Floyd Experience tribute show at QPAC recently. Honestly, tribute shows seem to cop a lot of flack for the musicians involved taking on the persona of others instead of creating their own vision & releasing their own music but quite frankly, some of the best music (in my opinion) comes from the late 1960s & 1970s & many of the bands/artists have unfortunately passed away, feel they are now "too old" to tour or have broken up so if other talented singers, guitarists & drummers didn't take up the mantle, these songs that truly meant something to the world would cease to be enjoyed live & that would be a real shame, especially at a time when the issues inherent in our world seem to mirror many "hot button" topics from the aforementioned eras. The passionate eleven-piece band & dedicated lighting professionals who tirelessly work to create this transcendent three-hour-long salute to Pink Floyd are second-to-none & if you happen to close your eyes during the show, you would feel as if you were hearing the real thing... a rare treat that I'm glad I was able to experience. 

For the occasion, I wore a true vintage woven polyblend/lurex maxi dress that was gifted to me by a dear friend, hippie-luxe camel wool cropped jacket with white embroidery detailing from Bohemian Traders, black leather pointy-toed heels with elastic straps from Wittner, a vinyl crossbody bag with gold hardware from Forever New to carry all the essentials while keeping my hands free (one of the best tips for concert-goers) & a funky gold bangle with charms stack from American label Alex & Ani.
