UAP Christmas Party -- architects go hip-hop!

I got a text invite yesterday to our chapter Christmas party (Capitol Chapter) on the 11th. So i thought it might be a good idea to attend and 'reconnect' with fellow architects, considering I've only attended about a couple of our chapter meetings for the year. I was all excited about the idea...until I got to the part (of the text message) which said "..come in hip-hop get-up and win P2,500 for best costume!". Hip-hop?!

So now I'm having second thoughts about attending. Haha! The clothes I own are simply anything BUT hiphop! Thank God for google, though. I tried searching for outfit pegs that might be useful. Some of them actually aren't that bad, although I don't think I'd ever understand the aesthetic behind wearing jeans so low the crotch is level with the knees.

Here are some photos I came across with:




I'm kind of liking the hoodie thing. Maybe I can get away with wearing just a hooded top and regular jeans for the occassion.

It sure is going to be a lot of fun looking at everyone else's interpretation of this theme, especially the more 'senior' colleagues! I'd have to remember to take a lot of pictures -- if I decide to attend, that is. ;-p
