As a kid, my family had a giant Tupperware trunk in the basement stuffed with everything from discarded Halloween costumes (think: oversized sunglasses, clown shoes, a witch’s cape) to Mom’s hand-me-downs (yeah, bell bottoms!). My sister and I piled on clothes, transforming instantly into Boho Bozos, Hollywood werewolves, and prom rejects. We even got our little brother in on the action, albeit often against his will (Sorry, Balloony Man!). A favorite: His turn as the Material Girl, complete with an arm full of jelly bracelets and a wig. So, when I heard there was a prize for “best outfit” for an upcoming family tennis tourney, I was all in! Turns out, I’m not the only one who likes to play dress up. Check out the pics of my hubby and me and our competitors. Sadly, we didn’t snag best dressed honors or claim the championship, but we did have a ball!
