Hello Nubians,

Aren't themed parties mega fun?! A few weeks ago my friend Jasmin (@VintageVandal) invited me to "Gollo's Annual Cholo Party" at Beauty Bar in Las Vegas. It was a crazy fun experience. Everyone goes dressed in Cholo/Chola style which through the years has been mainly plaids, baggy pants, stripes, bandanas, converse sneakers, red lip stick with black liner for the ladies, oversized earrings and more.

People were getting into the theme, mingling and having a great time. Gollo is of Mexican descent and from what I've heard he enjoys throwing the party every year to celebrate and embrace his culture and his birthday with his friends at the same time. Sounds like a double win to me.

Before we headed out to beauty bar I passed by my friend Jasmin's house and she helped me get ready. I wore a classic Elvis mugshot tee with boot cut Levis denim and Jordan sneakers. Jasmin gave me these amazing bumper bangs which are popular in the pinup community and tied a red bandana in my hair. Red lips and some bamboo styled bangles with a machine gun and boom! I was ready to go with my chola inspired look and strut my stuff.

Jasmin did an amazing job giving herself a gangsta Disney princess tattoo sleeve with an Avon eyeliner! I was in awe of her ability to do it so quickly. I couldn't believe she was able to do all of that with an eye-liner and it didn't come off all night... kudos Avon.




That's all folks! Looking forward to doing this again and enjoying more events in Downtown Vegas.
