Roche Harbor Resort employee appreciation party's are epic! There is always a theme to dress up to. We have a live band, photo booths, food, and alcohol. Last year was an 80's theme where the spa girls dressed up as Robert Palmer's vixens.
This year was sci-fi/fantasy which made for an absolutely hysterical night of fun! We all went full force into our costumes, some bought & some made. Mine was mostly made. I was Effie Trinket from The Hunger Games.
I found a hideous dress in the right color to transform into Effie's famous purple outfit. It was kismet... I still can't believe I found this dress on our little island. As you can see this dress needed to die anyways, there was no guilt as I chopped it up!
I had a blast making the fascinator for my costume. I bought a roll of felt from Etsy seller Crafty Wool Felt.
I can hardly wait till the next soiree!!
