30th birthdays: Fiona cruises into her thirties

Architect Fiona, from Oban, sailed into her thirties aboard a luxury cruise around the Mediterranean with her partner and family. A great idea for those wanting luxury, sun and sea without any hassle. For her on board birthday dinner, Fiona wore a cute monochrome floral print dress - a timeless classic.

Thanks Fiona for sending in your photo!

30th birthdays - why dress fancy when you can fancy dress?

Several of our readers opted for the fun frolics of fancy dress for their 30th birthday celebrations. Fancy dress is a perfect idea for those wanting to get creative for their 30th. It's also a great way to involve all your friends and family. Here are a few ideas from our gorgeous readers:


Anything goes: Nicola from Edinburgh (pictured right with Supergirl and below left) entered her 30s in a super hot Marilyn Monroe inspired sailor girl dress (Deckhand Diva costume from Fancy Dress Ball). This sexy look was completed with smoothly waved blonde locks and bright red lips: Nicola - we salute this outfit! Her friends and family were invited to dress up in anything they wanted. Bananaman, Super Girl, Hee-Man, Sheera, Mr T, The Joker - you name it, they were there. Nicola chose the Corn Exchange, Edinburgh for her venue. Check it out here.



Ain't nothin but a G thing: Our very own Gill entered her 30s with a 'G' themed garden party. Dressing up as her idol Lady Gaga, Gill looked phenomenal in her lace leotard and black jacket with handmade shoulder pads and a killer flying saucer hat she found in a charity shop. Complete with Gaga's blonde bangs, straight hair and sunglasses, this outfit has fun and hot written all over it. Guests included a greengrocer, Ghostbuters, Gleeks, Greek goddesses and geishas.


 
 80s theme: Marnie from Edinburgh went back to the decade where it all began for her, looking hot as Madonna, Lucky Star style, in a classic blonde perm wig, black bow headband and black halterneck.

30th birthdays - Nicola takes her thirties back to the forties

Nicola, Edinburgh, celebrated her 30th and her dad's 60th with a joint birthday party.

We simply LOVE Nicola's vintage style and her 1940s American wartime look. In a girly print dress and cute t-bar shoes, Nicola stands out from the crowd, completing the look with victory rolls and bright red lips. This is the perfect outfit for a 30th birthday, classy and mature but with lots of fun and bundles of character.

Nicola said: 'I bought the dress in Anthropologie, it's by a designer called Karen Walker, from her 'Hi There!' collection. I have another one from it too - they are so pretty!'. Visit www.anthropologie.eu

And it would appear this vintage theme is not a one off for Nicola. The retro-chic food lover organises pop up vintage tea parties around Edinburgh. Her events have included a Pop Up Pilates Vintage Tea Party and Nicola is now selling tickets for a Chocolate Tea Party on Thursday, March 28 priced at £15 each or four for the price of three for groups. You can find all the details on Facebook, search for Pop Up Pyms Events.
