One of the things I absolutely love about hosting is getting dolled up for the event. Things, however, get even more fun when the party has a specific theme, and you get to play dress up for a night. For my last hosting job with Martin, we hosted someone's 18th birthday and the theme was The Great Gatsby. Having read the book and watched the movie, you could just imagine how excited I got when I found out I could dress up just like a flapper girl, and be my own version of Daisy Buchanan. In true Roaring Twenties fashion, I wore pearls, a silver headband with feathers across my, and some gold and silver studded shoes to accessorize my flowy cocktail dress. I also rocked some black eyeshadow and dark red lips for my make up. We had such a fun time hosting, we felt like we were also just enjoying the festivities even though we were actually working.
It seemed like a pleasant coincidence that as Martin and I were hosting a Great Gatsby-themed party which is known for its decadence and excessiveness, the venue of the party is right beside the newly opened City of Dreams which is a lavish resort and casino in Manila (and is even endorsed by Jay Gatsby himself, Leonardo di Caprio). While we were in the area, we also got to explore City of Dreams for the first time. It's a nice place to go to if you're a high roller and you're feeling a bit lucky to play cards or slot machines. There are also restaurants to eat at, several high end boutiques to shop at, and Dreamplay which I'm not sure what it is exactly. All I know is that it has the Dreamworks cartoon characters and a whole lot of children lined up to go in it.
