5 things I’m obsessed with at Lollapalooza on Day 2
5. Flower Power is back.
This summer along Michigan Avenue in Chicago, on the Chicago Cultural Mile, Plant Green Ideas RRR at www.plantgreenideas.com and www.chicagoculturalmile.org.have placed head-shaped planter sculptures, many have flowers growing out of them. I also noticed a flower power theme on the grounds of Grant Park, a nod back to the 60’s was in full force at the fest. I was obsessed with how many girls at Lolla were sporting the look of flower wreaths on their heads. Very retro –
4. Tour guide flag’s – stick’s and cartoon characters.
I thought it was just brilliant and creative how many groups of people came prepared with their own form of how to find each other. In the crowd you may spot a plush unicorn head mounted on a stick, a naked blow up doll, or just a flag, many carried high above their heads an object that could easily be seen by others from a-far. What a great way to be able to mark your territory, spot your group, and just make your way through the crowd. Above are a few I spotted today.
3. The Great Chicago Police Force.
The officers who I met and are working Lollapalooza have all been beyond helpful and kind. I have seen them chatting with visitors, helping others get water, and pointing people in the right direction. The force seems to be setting a nice tone and vibe. I saw these two even having some good fun with some of the VIP’s. Thank you Chicago Police who have shared smiles and handshakes all around.
2. Boomers – Lollapalooza Fashion Hit’s and Misses –
I did notice many of the over 40 crowd dressed age appropriate. That’s more than I can say for some of the younger women in the crowd. Looking concert ready with many wearing sensible comfy shoes, hat’s they are ready to rock. There were a few misses, but all and all I’m proud of our Boomfluent group
1. Butt Overexposed Cheekyness.
I just don’t understand this fashion no no. It’s a throw back to the high waist mom jeans, but now cut off so short exposing the under butt cheeks. At first I thought it was just a small group of girls, (not) as I walked around it’s dozens and dozens of girls with lower butt bottoms hanging out. I would call it a diaper cut, and these babies need to get tossed out ladies.
I can’t wait to see what I will discover on day 3 of Lollapalooza
