I found this hair for just L$1 at the fab BC322 store and decided to set myself a challenge – to make a suitably matching outfit using only dollarbies and freebies – here is the result!

I made sure everything is currently available and the only item that kinda cost more than L$1 is the pose set (the group costs L$10 to join) but as there are more than 10 group gifts available I think it’s allowed XD
