0H M4R10!

Last time I posted about jewelry it was Tom Binn's painted/glow in the dark crystal masterpieces (here), and this time it's a Net-A-Porter exclusive Mario Testino x Erickson Beamon collaboration - which is basically everything I already love about Erickson Beamon jewelry but with a Peruvian twist.  The pom pom detailing is unexpected, but delightfully playful and well executed - and I really love the bold scale of the earrings.  Total statement pieces, but it's still easy to see them worn for practically any occasion.

After two soul crushing weeks without a single night out in drag I got back into my groove with this new lace front and a trashy retro mini dress, which was much cuter in person.  With the post below you can see the difference between my usual gauntlet of products (here) and bare covergirl foundation (below) which I actually hadn't used in nearly three years.  Standard girl makeup like Covergirl - or any other brand - is good for 'natural' look/boy face/quick fix situations since it's usually pretty light coverage.

This week I was working late the night I usually go out every week so I didn't have time for an elaborate face of makeup --- so I brought a few products with me to work and a change of shirt/shoes.  It was really difficult deciding what to do the night before because obviously I don't want to lug a ton of crap around the city, so when I realized my makeup concept was super similar to Balenciaga's F/W 07 makeup I went with this rad tie dye tee from Blood is the New Black to tie it all together.  I don't like wearing tees out at night usually since it's so pedestrian, but BITNB always makes extra cute tees.  Actually I wore it out another night almost exactly a year ago (see it HERE), too.  Wide neck tees are the only rational alternative to a tank during the summer months.

Had fun picking out patches for this jacket last week, but I'm already thinking I'll have to get a few more to add to it - can't stop until it's as chaotic and tacky as possible.

The past few weeks out at night.  I was living for that snake, it was my unintentional Britney Toxic/Slave For You moment.

"Androgynous Pratt student documents his outfits that run the gamut from everyday college kid to flamboyant club kid. Anyone who throws on a pair of Balenciaga platforms or 9" fetish stilettos to cheer himself up is pretty awesome and entertaining in our opinion!"

TOPSHOP INSIDE-OUT BLOG
"Dressing up is what William loves to do most. This young designer from New York doesn’t dress for fashion but just to have fun and enjoy himself like the big kid that he is. Both adorned as a man and woman, his blog isn’t your common “check-out-my-outfit” type blog. It’s a journey into NYC’s crazy nightlife with party outfits straight from the young creative/transvestite scene. Juggling Timberland homemade platforms, tie-dye t-shirts, camo baggy trousers and an orange furry jacket, his looks are absolutely bonkers-awesom, leaving us wanting more everytime. We strongly recommend that you check out his collection too . Made from Japanese anime babe-printed fabric, it’s pretty darn cool."

LYNN & HORST
"I strongly believe in the comeback of Manga and will further explore its use in contemporary art and fashion. Most probably, 'sexualization' will become a core motif. In the first instance, I'd like to draw your attention to the reanimation of Anime by Dripping Lazers."
