'The Great Gatsby' Themed Party at the Green Room, Fort Lauderdale
7:32 PM
Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of attending a super-cool theme party at The Green Room, located downtown, Fort Lauderdale. The theme was 1920s/Gatsby, and I was all over that shit.
Mind you, I haven't read the book (skipped school a lot), and I haven't seen either of the movies... I am just obsessed with every era except my own. I didn't even have to go out and buy a costume, because I just have this stuff in my closet just waiting for the perfect moment to bust out. And perfect, it was.
Although I got there a little late, I had a blast! Thankfully, they even played music from that era, and everyone was in character, speaking the lingo of the roaring 20s! (Someone said I looked like a fire alarm...) I genuinely felt like I stepped into a time vortex. That being said, the night was a success.
Hashtag selfie: This was the top part of my outfit. I made my head piece in the last minutes using a headchain and one of my mom's old earrings.

Betty on film, and live burlesque on stage. Fuck yes. |
I look like a ghost, but Anthony looks cute here. |

Scratch what I said earlier, I AM a ghost. |
My sister ran into her good friend, Jamal, from high school! |

I wish you could see just how cute this girl's outfit was. |
This random guy kinda jumped in my picture. Whatevs. |
