How I Feel Working Today on a Saturday

Thanks, Vivienne Westwood, for visualizing my mood today 

Melissa Hearts Vivienne Westwood

And my stylish pal, Jenny B hearts these heels except for long walks in Park Slope

Thanks CFDA for this beautiful pic! 

Dear British Friends, Send Me a Letter!

Cuz these just released royal mail postage stamps commemorating the fashion stars of the British scene, past and present, have got me licked!

(Nerd Alert: I already got the magnet of the McQueen 'Black Raven' dress from The MET's exhibit)

Would you check out the hair on these stamps? And the drama of that Norman Hartnell coat? This ain't no liberty bell, honey! 

Ooh and that Jean Muir number's just a little slice of Gloria Swanson fabulous-ness, eh?

Work Blog: Butterfield 8 Inspiration

Even before her death this year, I've been one Elizabeth Taylor lovin' gay and with a big vintage event coming up next Friday at Roundabout Soho, I wrote up this style inspiration from one of E. Taylor's Oscar winning performances, "Butterfield 8"

(Vivienne Westwood lipstick logo shirt, size 4, Roundabout Price $149)

(Dolce & Gabbana fuchsia silk bustier dress, size 6, Roundabout Price $469)

Tom Ford will Show at London Fashion Week

Huge coup for London Fashion Week as Tom Ford will be showing his Spring 2012 collection Sunday September 18th. 

Arguably one of the hottest tickets of the season, Tom Ford will be a welcome addition to London Fashion Week and will join the ranks of Vivienne Westwood, Giles Deacon and House of Holland as London presenters. 

Book that flight now ladies and gays! 

Bring Back My Girls

Oh TV, why do you do things like this to me?













Simultaneously pull out from under me not one but two of my Monday nite addictions?

What, am I supposed to go outside or something? You know how I feel about that mess. I'm disappointed, even more so since the season finale of RuPaul's Drag Race didn't even have an upset. We all knew Raja had this thing in the bag since she strutted out in that Westwood-esque getup in the premiere ridiculously themed Christmas ep

And now she's the official winner and Manila and Alexis start plotting her "accidental" death

And with Bad Girls Club wrapped up with a treacly "Oh we all cool now" finale episode, there will be an extreme lack of drunken fights in my home now

I guess I'll just start slipping whiskey into the cat's bowl

(Nothing unusual here)

But with the admitted drag queens and the drag queens in denial both ending last nite, what should I start planning? When does True Blood come back?!
