arrr, Tacoma First Night Women Costume Ideas

With Tacoma First Night approaching do you women have your costumes ready? We are really serious about the theme this year. What you didn’t hear yet? This year is “The Year of the Pirate”. The good news is I have put together a few photos to help you women get some inspiration.

First up is the sexy fishnet pirate, I hope to see a few of these around since this look is a winner in my book.

Great reason for you to get more use of those fishnets you rarely use and you won’t have to buy any new shoes, just wear the same black heals you wear to work.

Top of Tacoma Bar soon to offer amazing food

A little dodo bird has come out of extinction and whispered that next door the Top of Tacoma bar is just about ready to open up an all ages food spot. The kitchen looks pretty amazing with all stainless steal appliances and a little hole in the wall to serve the bar.

This little dodo also mentioned that they will be offering a selection of soups, paninis, and more. Keep your eyes peeled since it is hoping to open before Christmas.

For those of you who didn’t get to make it out as promised here are some videos
