Moulin Rouge

Tomorrow night, there is a Moulin Rouge party at Teatro Circo club in Murcia. It is a themed night (obviously) and takes me back to the days when I used to dress up every Friday for BOP in first year. I don't tend to dress up anymore, but I will next year, as it is my final year *sob*.

 

I have never dressed up as a character from Moulin Rouge before, and I don't plan on dressing up loads like the characters in the film because I don't want to walk around the streets of Spain half naked with random men leering. I think I'm going to opt for the classic LBD, crazy coloured heels, and add a feather boa, and clip on hat (the last two I will have to find and buy tomorrow in the short free hours I have during the day).

 

I have created an inspiration board - it seems the blog is full of them this month - for Moulin Rouge.

 

 

I think the theme of Moulin Rouge is a fantastic idea for a birthday theme also (or any kind of party if you feel like dressing up).

 

I love the film too! It always makes me cry at the end. I might watch it in bed tonight before my early start tomorrow. I can get into the spirit of the theme even though I am already really excited to have another night out!

 

October In Spain

I have just done a bit of research about the goings on of Spain in October. There are many film festivals throughout the country, especially in Madrid, Barcelona & Marbella. Of course, there is also Bullfighting which goes on throughout the year.

 

 

For me, I won't be going to any of these things (this month at least). I've tried to be good, and say no to going out as much and spending a lot of money. So far, I've been doing okay, but as the plans for nights out keep coming in, my purse is hating me, but I'm loving life.

So, in a nutshell, that they are the plans for October so far! I am excited for tomorrow night, and the rest of the nights out with my new friends in Spain to come! It is already the 4th, so I bet this month will fly by like the last! I can't believe I have already been in Spain for a whole month, granted on my own, without Mum & Dad, for just under a month. They are both visiting at the end of next month for six days which is very exciting! I shouldn't wish my life away, because I am having an amazing time out here, but it's always nice to have something to look forward to!
