I love a good dress up party!
Here in Aus, we have a tradition, where if you are turning 18 or 21 everyone must throw a big party with a theme!!
Where as in America, the one night to dress up is of course - Halloween!!
We don't celebrate Halloween here like they do in America, the whole build up, the pumpkin picking/carving, the orange leaves, the houses putting scary skeletons and ghosts around their front lawn, the children going door to door, chanting out "trick or treat" and admiring their costumes, the halloween parade in Greenwich Village and the parties, it's just not the same here!
And thats just one thing I miss!!!
However, I do think us Aussies excel in dress up parties, and I just had to break out my old Halloween costume back from 2009, from when I was living in Pelham, New York!!
