Start your engines, rockabilly Ladies! Break out the lemonade pitcher and picnic basket because Summer is here! What better way to prepare for Summertime fun than to start your rockabilly online shopping? Sweet and romantic vintage and rockabilly styles are popping up all over the place for a refreshingly new (yet old) summertime wardrobe. I have especially noticed a come-back of '40s style dresses and rompers, which are flattering for many different body types and different rockabilly styles.

Splurge a little and spend the $150 on this lavender pin-stripe dress from modcloth.com. This rockabilly dress is sure to hug your curves in all the right places...leaving you feeling and looking classy and gorgeous. Or how about this absolutely adorable overall-jumper dress for sale on forever21.com for less than twenty bones? Umm, yes...sign me up for one, please! This overall dress reminds me of something from the '40s during the war. Top the look off with maybe a puffy-sleeved, peter-pan collared blouse underneath, some over-sized victory rolls, and a pair of cork-colored wedges.

Picnic-Wear

So your beau is taking you on a lovely and romantic picnic in the park? Find yourself rolling in the grass or on a checkered blanket in this vintage-like shirtwaist dress from H&M online. Once again, this is a steal for less than $25! Many rockabilly ladies have expressed that they cannot afford the vintage rockabilly look, but I guarantee you that you can! You just need to be patient and search through websites in order to find those perfectly rockabilly looking pieces. Surprisingly, H&M and forever21.com are two affordable online stores that offer some retro pieces with a modern rockabilly edge. Browse through their products and you will find something that gives off that 'billy 'tude...just in time for a lemony sunny summer!

I also found these retro-reminiscent bow earrings on H&M.com. How perfectly feminine and cute! These would look prim and proper with the shirtwaist dress above or with a retro peasant blouse with a lacy skirt.

Poolside Fun - Rockabilly Swimwear

We can't talk about rockabilly summer wardrobes without discussing the always important swimsuit! Whatever your body type and taste, there is a perfect rockabilly swimsuit waiting to be yours. Check out this sexy, pin-up style, navy girl one-piece on pinupgirlclothing.com. It's less than $100 and will leave you feeling like Bettie Page in an instant! The sizes are also from x-small to 2XL, so buy one now!

For the rockabilly girl who is a little more daring, bikinis are the way to go. But you say you don't necessarily want to flaunt your tummy and hind-parts? Well, try out a high-waisted retro style two-piece from modcloth.com. How about a red and white polka-dotted two piece for less than $90? You don't want to pass up a deal like that, plus I can almost guarantee that none of your friends will have exactly the same swimsuit as you! Be rockabilly but still be cute and sexy at the same time.

The Rockabilly Kicks

No rockabilly summer ensemble is complete without a hip pair of rockabilly kicks! Ahhh, I have an obsession with shoes and these shoes are calling out to me in a VERY loud voice. Payless.com has an amazing selection of summer shoes, including these adorable gingham black&white ballet flats. The brand is actually American Eagle, preppy capital of the world; however, they remind me of a picnic basket and summer in a pedal!

So the ballet flats cover your casual rockabilly side, but what about the night-time date look? You need a super sexy and retro pair of nautical striped pumps, for only $49.00 at babygirlboutique.com. These rockin' pair of heels will go with almost any nautical outfit, whether day-wear or nightwear. Pair it with your favorite rockabilly, pin-up style dress or a white eyelet skirt with a blue sheer blouse...the possibilities are endless!

Left a comment yesterday, but didn't see it posted. Loved the hub. The Rockabilly outfits and info reminds me of a great rockabilly band I used to follow: Twistin' Trantulas. Ever hear of them?
