The Murder Mystery Company

DRESS: Zara || PURSE: Michael Kors || SANDALS: Forever 21

          Saturday evening I attended my first murder mystery dinner with The Murder Mystery Company.  They host public shows in both Oakbrook Terrace and Chicago.  I went to the one in Oakbrook Terrace.  If you live in the Chicagoland area or are traveling through, this could be a fun way to spend an evening.  

          I had never attended a murder mystery dinner before so I wasn’t sure what to expect.  I thought it was fun all around.  Each show has a theme that goes along with the story.  You are encouraged to dress to fit the theme but you don’t have to.  The actors tell a story while you gather clues to try to solve the mystery.  The story progresses while you are eating and between scenes you can question the suspects.  The actors were super into the story and very good.  I do wish there were more food options, though.  

          The mystery took place in the 1950’s.  I didn’t really dress up because I didn’t have any dresses that were from the 50″s.  I wore this dress that kind of looks vintage.  It’s from Zara.  I got it over New Years, when I went to Canada.  I haven’t had a chance to wear it yet so I thought it would be perfect.
