Oh, Halloween, I love you so!! Halloween is definitely my favorite holiday. You get to dress up and you get free candy...what's not to love!? I was a little afraid that I was going to have to work this year, but fate smiled on me and the mother's brother got married on Halloween (ps, how awesome is that!?) so I got not only that night off, but also the next morning! Plans were quickly made to go and party. Rebby and I decided that we would have dinner at my place, then go down to Cats and see everyones costumes before heading down to Taksim to meet up with Anna and her friends. Well, I waited til the last minute to get a costume and the day I had planned to go trolling on Istiklal for a costume shop, God opened the heavens to punish me for procrastinating and proceeded to flood the city. So, on Halloween day, I went up to Akmerkez with Rebby with the intention of getting a childs costume and just making it fit (something my brother is notorious for and which always leads to hilarious outfits). After checking a few stores to see my options, we went into Zara to see if they had shoes. Well, once in Zara something miraculous happened. There, in the back of the store, was one lone flapper dress. It was the only one in the store and it fit like a glove!!! Clearly I was meant to be a flapper this year. So, with my dress in hand, the next thing to find was a feathery head piece of some sort. In a Claire's like store, I found exactly what I was looking for. Everything was just working out so perfectly...it was a Halloween Miracle!!!
And the night just continued to be wonderful! Rebby and I had dinner and got all dressed up.
We went down to Cats to check out all of there costumes, and it was hoppin...people were actually dancing (no one ever dances at cats...well, except for us, we always dance).
We hung out with friends there for awhile before heading up to Taksim to rendevous with Anna. Once there the awesomeness (and rain) continued. We went to Lokal and just danced the night away. It was fabulous!
But the best part, truly, was being able to sleep in the next morning!!!
God, I LOVE Halloween!!!!!!
