Phoenix things to do: October 29-31
Muwhahaha! It’s Halloween weekend! One of my favorite holidays of the year (after Thanksgiving — I really love a turkey dinner). Dress up and spook out with some cool things happening this weekend.
FRIDAY
Valley Vintage – A Fashion Experience @ Hotel Valley Ho
Take a step back in time at Friday night’s Valley Vintage — an evening of retro fashion (by Robert Black), entertainment, food and cocktails. According to the website, the event “will showcase ‘a day in a life’ of elegant women from the era.” Sounds pretty peachy to me.
