Le Maison Rouge

Linc's company threw a lavish "Moulin Rouge" themed event last night to celebrate the continued success of one of their games. Guests were invited to Paris on Ponce and encouraged to wear burlesque attire! I went a bit more tame as a can-can dancer in a beautiful black dress that my talented mother worked on for a week to make more period appropriate! Linc dressed to the nines in a tux with tails, top hat, and coordinating vest and bow tie. If you've never seen it, Paris on Ponce is an antique store but if you follow the red path all the way through the building you will eventually come upon the entrance to Le Maison Rouge- a large room filled with comfy couches, draping red curtains, and a stage for performances.

We were greeted by two cabaret dancers and led into the room where people did not even recognize me! When I arrived a few minutes earlier the valet asked if I was part of the show! If only I had known what kind of show we were in for...After a yummy buffet dinner and passed hors d'oeuvres we were surprised with an actual burlesque show with some very scantily clad women! The same girls who had greeted us and a few others we hadn't seen performed a peep show of sorts that left me blushing! We danced the night away when they were done and some of us even can-canned on the stage. It was sort of like an adult prom and we had such a great time. It also just happened to be the start to my Spring Break and I could not think of a better way to kick it off! Hope you're having a great weekend too!
