Dressing up for haunted houses and a parade . . .


. . . yes i am talking about halloween in new york city! 
New Yorkers take it seriously and it's pretty damn fabulous. Despite the cold and rainy days we've been having each year, people will still dress up or down (for those who wear close to nothing) and head out in large crowds to visit all the SCARY haunted houses or spend their evening at the grand parade. The halloween parade, in Greenwich Village, runs straight up 6th avenue from spring street to 16th street. See this site for more information. 


This year the city will be celebrating their 39th annual parade in style and I will be attending!! Last year i was too cold and feeling lazy, so i stayed home cuddled up with a cup of tea and my warm blanket. This year, i'm determined to dress up and beat the cold in style, with my husband by my side ;) We're dressing up as Sandy and Dany from Grease. I can't wait!… What about you? What are you dressing up as?


I prefer the more romantic side of halloween, rather than the scary and bloody side. It's more fascinating to see someone dressed up all glamorous in glitter, a beautiful mask, an old vintage dress or even a charming character from an old fairytale. But that's juts me :)


So dress your kids, dress your dogs and dress yourself up and head out to the parade or to a haunted house and celebrate the funniest holiday of the year, halloween!!

Cheers, Mais.
