Fancy Dress Party

What did you do for New Year's Eve? Some of my friends and I had a fancy dress party. What do you think of when you read the term "fancy dress?" I imagine you're thinking of getting dressed up in your nicest formal clothes. It took me awhile to figure this out, but in the UK a fancy dress party is really a costume party. At first one of my friends mentioned she went to a fancy dress party where everyone dressed up like a different tube station. I thought that didn't sound very fancy but I just let it go and thought maybe I had misunderstood. Then I was watching Bridget Jones and she went to a fancy dress party where they wore costumes. Hence, I determined that a fancy dress party=costume party. Consider yourself enlightened.

Well, our fancy dress party had a superhero theme! You had to come dressed as your own superhero-no existing superheros allowed, complete with super powers and a cape. We had a blast decorating with Spiderman, Batman and Superman and creating our outfits. Check us out!
Yes, that is Superman hanging from the ceiling in the middle of the picture and yeah, I know we're hot. You can see more pictures on my webshots.
