Help with a Costume

I have a concept for a character but I'm having trouble getting the costume right. I want a female Earth/emp troller who is something of a 60's / 70's hippie type. every time I try to make it work it just looks ridiculous. It either looks like a technicolor mess or downright obscene

Anyone care to take a stab at a hippie type costume? Not too over the top - sort of modern pagan witch neo hippie goth.

TY

Let me see what I can do.

Lets see... I made the body type Normal, no tweaks, about 5'6"...

I used the Glam hair, colored red rather than blonde or brown... but that could be changed.

Daddy-O glasses, Makeup 4... cant recall which face but it was one of the more 'down to earth' ones.

I used the third Martial Arts robe, for the embroidery texture. Figured a dark purple with gold trim would be very hippie-like.

Used the Bare hands option with a Magic texture, and chose a color that would look like a henna tattoo.

the pants are the tight pants option, with the flared boot option. Both use a dark blue base color, with the Psych texture. the secondary color was chosen to be close to the first, to just add a little texture to the jeans.

And that's it.
