Max and Chi’s Retro Birthday Party
Attended a fantastic party last night, to celebrate Max and Chi’s Birthday! The theme was retro and I was uber excited to show off our little creation. The minute the theme was announced, I knew EXACTLY how Wayne and I should be dressed.
It was so hard to contain my excitement, but here it is:

Taken in the lift just before our big reveal!
Wayne’s look was absolutely hilarious and very well pulled off! And it definitely made everyone at the party laugh.
The party was fantastic, most of us were dressed in theme and that really set the mood for the whole night. Camera flashes were going off, wigs were passed around, food was great and best of all the company of friends was amazing!
Ling even planned a night walk route for us. Those who brought their lanterns lit them up and led the way from Upper East Coast road through Parbury Avenue.
Four legged friends were also invited to the party, so in total, there were 3 Jack russels, 1 Goldie and 1 Schnauzer. It was helter-skelter at the apartment, but lots and lots of love and attention for the dogs all round.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAX! HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHI!
We spent less than $40 on each outfit by using old and borrowed clothes. The most expensive item would be the afro wig. Here’s how to get the Wayngela look!
