Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, or so they say, others simply say that it is theft. So why would you want to go to a party dressed as someone else, I asked my wife, as she showed me the fancy dress invite… «You don’t have to go as anyone, you can go as a pirate.» she snarled back at me, still insisting we are going as she stormed off. Mmm, a pirate hey, or maybe even a cowboy, BORING! I reluctantly tagged along to Carnival Costume Hire in Milford, and I was shocked to see what modern options are now available, costume hire sure has changed. And their website shows just how big a selection they have on site. My wife picked a sexy yellow Kill Bill one piece and I dressed in full Braveheart regalia, with blue and white face paint. Needless to say, we were a hit, winning best dressed couple. Next time I’ll reconsider the face paint, but I’ll do the dress up again. It was fun.
