My brother’s 23rd birthday is on the 30th. We were trying to think of something to do, to celebrate. Two weeks ago, we decided we’d have a retro costume party, which was reasonable since his actual birthday is on the day before Halloween.

My brother went as a hippie, and I went as… an Austin Powers girl (this is according to my brother’s judgment). I think I looked like a complete retard.

But it was fun, a great reason for shopping (I got most of the stuff I wore 50% off, my dress was 60% off), and a great reason to dress weird. :D

Photos can be found after the cut :)

p>My brother is turning 23 (I think. I’m a bad sister, I don’t remember his age) this month. Since we’re a family of deranged retards and my brother’s birthday is the day before Halloween, we’ve decided to hold a 70’s themed party. So everyone has to show up looking like a hippie or a go go girl.

The whole planning process falls on me. I’m doing a lot of googling, I have absolutely no idea how to go about this. I have to get an afro wig for my brother, plan my own costume, search for suitable music… gah!

I have two weeks to plan this thing. I don’t even know why I’m doing this for my brother, seriously.

Can anyone suggest good music and artists from the 70’s? I really need to get started on the music and invitations.
