Allison is one of the beautiful and talented ladies in The Garter Girls burlesque group and her personal style off the stage is soft and gracious, with a pin-up girl twist. The accessories she was wearing when I bumped into her were all hand crafted by Allison herself, making me adore and respect her personal style that much more!
