Monster Bash

Hello Urban Women,

Halloween is only 23 days away! I don't know about you but Halloween is my favourite celebration of the year. I plan to  host a Monster Bash for all of my besties. A Monster Mash party is not your typical dress up party, it is a mega bash that will leave everyone breathless. These instructions should guide you to set up your very own party atmosphere.

Guests should be told to dress like the ugliest monsters they can imagine. A lot of poo brown garb, faux face gashes, and glue on body hair are expected. Make sure to tell people that nothing about them should look attractive.

Decorate  your house with spooky pumpkins. I tend to carve mine with a blindfold on to get the best massacred look. Leave the pumpkin entrails inside to create a rotting flesh kind of smell. I also use a pumpkin as a cute punch bowl. I mix up some vodka, 5 hour power, and tang. Instead of ice cubes use jello shooters in the shape of decapitated fingers.

Make a playlist of eerie music-some of my faves are sung by Fred Penner and Raffi. To make it really personalized I usually record myself shrieking and put this on a loop.

Bandaid Snackers
1. Take one loaf of multigrain whole wheat white bread and toast each piece to a medium brown
2. Cut bread into slices into about 5 lengths per piece of toast
3. Add some bleach to a cup of peanut butter until it becomes a light brown skin tone
4. Slather each bit of bread with peanut butter/bleach mixture
5. use a toothpick to make tiny holes to appear like a bandaid
6. squirt a little bit of ketchup on each bit to look like blood
7. Instead of a platter use a vintage ambulance stretcher as a serving plate
8. Enjoy!

The room should be dim (candle light only) when all of your guests arrive. If they followed the instructions they should all be looking absolutely horrifying. When the doorman lets you know everyone has arrived, put the spotlight on and strut into the room...the kicker is that the Urban Woman always looks fab! Wear your sexiest pleather tube skirt with a lingerie top and bedazzled heels. Everyone will be so amazed at how good you look, especially in comparison to all the monsters!

Spend the night getting tons of photos with a little sign that reads "Beauty and the Beast". Print off the photos and use them as thank you for attending cards.

Hope your Halloween Bash is a stylish success!

Until next time,
Urban Woman
