Purple Feathers (and a Hat)

A friend of mine had a birthday party last weekend, and it was Hollywood themed. She encouraged us to dress up, and people really went all out! I dug an old costume out of my closet. (And by “old,” I mean I first bought it at a second-hand store almost 25 years ago!) My husband put on a suit and a hat … and we had a blast!

I did have to briefly steal his hat for another photo.

After the party, we went back to real life … but it was fun to spend an evening in “Hollywood”!
