31 Days of Halloween in New Orleans: Day 5

Today we embarked on a mission to find costumes for our various upcoming costume occasions! We went to three costume stores and I lucked up and found an awesome pirate costume AND the perfect Effie Trinket wig! It was so much fun trying different costumes on!



After costume shopping we headed to the French Quarter for some fun festivities. We ventured to the French Market for the annual Lindy Hop Swing Dance Festival. We wandered some of our favorite side streets, visiting some vintage clothing stores, an authentic voodoo store (creepy but cool!) and a few art galleries. Of course, depending on who you ask, there is a hurricane or tropical storm or tropical depression headed our way and it was a bit rainy and windy. The Quarter was still buzzing with activity though. A little rain isn't going to slow this city down. Here are some rainy day photos...
