Speedy Gaultier

Jean Paul Gaultier recently presented his Spring/Summer Couture collection in Paris and proved once again why he is the enfant terrible dela mode. He said he based it on Mexican folklore and Avatar, which -surprisingly enough- works! Starting with the movie Apocalypto (I know, I know. Mel Gibson is a dick but whatever) and taking off from there to Pandora. The collection began with modernized, "couturized," versions of the charro outfit (a charro is a traditional horseman from Mexico) in denim, then the revolution, exotic Mexican flora, then we're in Pandora (notice the little reference to the Pandorans with the blue stockings on look 22), came back to Mexico ready for a cultural renaissance and ended with La Catrina singing "CucurrucucĂș paloma." All in all, it was quite a spectacle and everything couture is supposed to be: artistic, intricate, beautiful, and it showed why Gaultier is the master of his trade. And to think it began with mariachis playing int the background...

Fly me to the moon

So today I finished Bayonetta and it was awesome. The whole ending credits were just as good as any chapter of the game: Bayonetta dancing to some pop songs, Bayonetta fighting Jeanne (who by the way is just as cool as Bayonetta and you get to play her for a while), and at the end you see Bayonetta pole dancing -yes, pole dancing- to a very beautiful song that somewhat fits in with the whole theme of the game. That song is "Fly Me To The Moon" sung by Brenda Lee. It still amazes me how they fit such a calm song in a videogame as violent and fast as Bayonetta. Anyway, here's the magnificient end:



Beautiful, isn't it?

She is my ideal

I recently saw this picture of Marilyn Monroe and I think it is quite beautiful. I don't know, it may be the femininity or the innocence that is exuded by this iconic woman. Old Hollywood was so much better than the new celebrity-obsessed Hollywood.

“My father is Abraham Lincoln. I mean, I think of Lincoln as my father. He was wise and kind and good. He is my ideal, Lincoln. I love him.”

Lazy week

I have been so lazy lately... not much work and school starts next week (thank God, I miss using my brain!), stayed home all week watching TV and playing Bayonetta (btw, I got a PS3. So worth the money! I can watch online videos on  my TV!). This videogame is sick! The only downside of this purchase is that I can't buy anything in the following 4 months (gotta pay those credit card bills), but when I'm done I'll go back to the good ol' compulsive buyer that I am! This is my next target:


I am obsessed with Prada, they're in my opinion the most artistic fashion house, and this is travel bag is just beautiful. I want it so bad, I could buy it now and pay it later, but I hate owing anyone anything, so I need to pay my bills first and then buy it, but I will :)

How ignorant can people be? Let's find out!

A very dear friend of mine sent me a link to an article she considered offensive and that I would be interested in reading because it dealt with homosexuality and the Golden Girls (my favorite TV show). Instead of being offended I am just surprised at how ignorant some people can be. That and the fact that it is quite obvious this website is a fake, hahaha!


The Golden Girls: how one TV show turned a generation of American boys into homosexuals


I would be pissed after reading this, but the arguments this "journalist" makes have no foundations. He is basically bashing homosexuals for the sake of it, having no reasonable argument to connect homosexuality with the Golden Girls. I am living proof that this is ludicrous: I was introduced to the show when I was 18 (far older than those "lonely" boys in the article), I have never felt awkward around girls (it's actually the opposite: I feel awkward with men, completely secure with women), I am not a sex-crazed leather fiend (this is when I started to laugh), and I for sure am not going to grope someone's son at Sears (God forbid the day I step a foot inside such an unfashionable place again!) or try to peek into your fitting room while you try a bathing suit (seriously?).


PS: Oh, and I do not have a "shit-zu" (not making this "shit" up, he spelled it that way) and the thought of "robot sex" scares me (too rusty for my taste).


This just comes to prove there will always be ignorant bigots who will try to find a way to make us (happy homos) feel miserable because their lives are a horrid mess, and will only feel better by putting someone else down, but that just does not work, I've read worse, and I am far above it...


... AND, yet again, this website is a fake :D

HOT!!!




I have a thing for guys with beards, meaty guys, well, bears, so I HAD to post this video. Not only are they hot, they are very very funny!!!

Thank you darling!!!

I recently received an email response from Gilmore form Pretty on the Outside -a blog that I read all the time and love- thanking me for the comment I left on his post about stunning gowns and telling me he liked  the story about the bar I posted earlier in the month, which let me know that SOMEONE at least has read my blog!!! OMG, this is no longer a pointless thing!!! YAY!!!

Go check out his blog (http://prettyontheoutside.typepad.com), it's pretty awesome and his drawings are super cool!!!

BTW, another reason to celebrate: I just got a new job at a certain clothing retailer that specializes in Americana sportswear, my favorite, so I'm in an utter state of unrelenting joy!!!

Sell the Vatican! Feed the world!

Sarah Silverman is AWESOME!!!





"The bottom line is this: if you sell the Vatican, and you take that money, and you use it to feed every single human being on the planet, you will get c-razy pussy, all the pussy..."


Like that is the Pope's cup of tea, hahahahaha!!!
