Street Style: Black Black White Punk Black Chic


First of all, hair. I want hair that white, with no bleaching. I've been craving a new change. Maybe white tips?  This lady has style like woah. I wear black a lot (especially in NY) as do a lot of people. But she is wearing black on black on black with interesting textures, and it contrasts with her hair so well. Also, her silver earrings (and black stud) further pull your eye to the contrast. ALSO CLAW RING! This girl is catwoman disguised by dressing as a very stylish tourist maybe? That claw ring is tough. Lisbeth Salander could use one of those....

St.Marilyn

First off, please do excuse the totally queermo obscure reference to Patrick Califia. However, ever since reading 'Macho Sluts", I love to think that I have my own Saint Marilyn, like the femme character does in one of the stories.  
 A Saint Marilyn to help me on my Femme way. To keep me from falling in heels, reminding me where to put perfume, and that I can wear anything with the right attitude. 

The hair, the pants, the range. I love the photo booth quality of this montage. Monroe meet Amelie de Poulain

Oh Michelle Williams....oh Hay girl Haaaay. 
She seems to have Miss Monroe down to a T! I am so excited to see this! Who's with me?

I wish I could pinch Marilyn Monroe.

SOME LIKE IT HOT:
 Why I want to pinch Marilyn Monroe's cheek and steal (ok borrow) her dress.

Some Like it Hot is one of my favorite movies of all time. It has Marilyn Monroe, men in drag, mobsters and more. Rent it, netflix it, download it, borrow it. I promise it stands the test of time. If you are one of those people who say you 'hate old movies' this might change your mind a teensy bit. Marilyn's wardrobe is simply delicious. Fashion nerds should watch it just for that. 

AMAZING THINGS 
in the following clip:
1. Marilyn's Charm and sex kittenishness when she sings
2. Her 'assets' in her dress
(aka her breasts, the girls, her ample bosom.)
3. Her silky smooth voice
4. Jack Lemmon being hilarious
5. A hotel porter doing a BOW TIE trick! Eeeep!
6. Men in Drag
7. Marilyn's SEQUINED VERY SHEER DRESS
8. Marilyn singing 'Boo Boo Bee Doop'. I just wanna pinch her cheek in that moment. She walks that line of sexy cute funny wanton ironic innocent drop dead sexy constantly. Oh, and If you never realized who a certain cartoon named Betty was satirizing, then here is it.
