I went out both Friday and Saturday nights in the costume which was super comfortable and warm, pretty unusual for a Halloween costume! I didn’t even need a purse because the jacket (which I found in a thrift store) had zipper pockets, score! Funny story from Friday night. I thought I was going to spend the whole night at a house party so I didn’t bring my ID. But my friends wanted to leave and go to a bar. The bar had a huge line down the block but we heard the bar playing Salt n Pepa’s "Push It" song so my friend said to the bouncer that he should let us in and he did! I walked in to my costume's theme song and got high five's from people which was fun! lol If you're not familiar with Salt n Pepa here's a little history lesson from Wikipedia.

The song "Push It" was released in 1987 and for a song that's nearly thirty years old, "Push It" has lost none of its original luster. It peaked at #19 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1988 and re-entered the charts after the group performed the track at Nelson Mandela's 70th Birthday concert, eventually peaking at #2 that summer. The album sold one million copies making Salt-n-Pepa the first female rap act to go gold or platinum. The song is sampled in Pitbull's song "Hey Baby (Drop It To The Floor)." You might recognize some of their other songs: Shoop, What a Man, Shake Your Thang, My Mic Sounds Nice. Last November they made this Geico insurance commercial performing "Push It".
