LOVE this theme.

I had a ton of fun with theme parties, but that's because me and my friends always got creative... and any time there was a theme that included "Ho" somewhere in it, I always dressed the male part.

For a Pimps and Hos party, my friend and I went as pimps… we wore black pants and shirts, heels, hats, colored glasses, she had a cane, and we both made our own “bling”.. we bought big wooden letters (each of our first initials) at A.C. Moore, painted them a shiny silver/gold, and tied them around our necks with equally flashy ribbon. Everyone loved our outfits.

GI Joes and Barbie Hos… we went dressed like Rambo (except we had shirts on)

For a Christmas party, everyone had to dress up like something… Christmasy. My friend and I went as presents. We had just plain white t-shirts and we ran ribbon around the middle, then down the front from the shoulder to near the hip.. and we put a bow where the two pieces of ribbon met. We had Christmas earrings and necklaces. The best part of the whole thing… we bought big cardboard gift tags at Wal-Mart (about 3”x5”), tied them around our necks and wrote on them:

To: Men
From: God

When people asked us what it meant, we said, “We’re God’s gift to men!”

Back in the 90s, Hurricane Parties were, maybe not a big thing, but they went on to from time to time - "boarded up" windows, come looking wind-blown, and of course drink Hurricanes. I would assume (and hope) that in a post-Katrina world, those aren't happening.

I never liked the "I'm glad I'm not..." parties. They could get mean-spirited.
