No, Really, You Want ME
My peeps, you must make buttons and bumper stickers and signs and get the vote out for me for Best Fashion Blog. Why am I the best? Because I represent hope! Just look at my motto: “Wear What You Want.” It’s positive, not negative. I wrote about the meaning of my motto last January: I…
I Thought I Looked Purrfect
Well, it turns out WWD didn’t think I was a hot pussy in my vintage Patrick Kelly dress! I never expected the average person to appreciate that drag-a-licious gown, but being on a “Disaster Area” page next to Susan Sarandon exceeded my wildest hopes and dreams.

Living High on the iHog … in Latex
It has belatedly occurred to me that not everyone understands what the iHog (aka Fernando von Bakonstein) is about. You people should be ashamed of yourselves. DON’T YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?!? No? Oh.

They persecute anyone who does something a little different, only to cry buckets when people play it safe….
Bows, and People Who Don’t Love Bows

Get those bows away from the neck and back on the butt where they belong! And since some people have asked, of course I loved Sandra Oh’s lambasted-till-someone-got-educated SAG award gown! Embed…
The Middle of the Next Blog
Last night, my husband told a cab driver to stop “in the middle of the next blog, um, block!” We’ve got blogs on the brain, especially me, because I’m knee-deep in unanswered memes. I better get moving. Wardrobe Oxygen tagged me with this one, as did Diana of So Fash’On a while ago. 1. What…
