Seen at Griffin

Much to my delight I discovered this gorgeous creature at the nightclub Griffin on Tuesday night. Griffin is in the highly questionable meatpacking district (that I always call meatmarket district –as a freudian slip, not intentionally) It used to be a questionable area because it was known as the place for trannies and prostitutes. Now it's questionable because it is full of poorly dressed Gossip Girl wannabes and men in midlife crisis. Which is why clubs like Griffin have the occasional stroke of genius to hire people like my friend George Perez to have parties there that will attract a different crowd...and let the others "experience" real NYC.

Happy Gay Pride NEW YORK CITY!!!

Who knew there was a group for Gay NYC bloggers? Gotta support fellow bloggers!

On a sick hot day there was a full on celebration at the parade. You can see all the crazy costumes online. I just wanted to post some kids who are "out" and about!
p.s. a note to all my gurlfriends: YOU are always on this blog so this time I wanted the baby dykes represented! ;)

and keeping with the skull theme

...thought I'd post this photo today. I love how the fellow on the left is looking slightly askance at his friend. And who doesn't love a marching band jacket decorated with skulls or a dress with mermaid sequins worn with a fade haircut? Lovely!

NYC nightlife icons

Yesterday I posted a photo of Patricia Field and received an interesting comment from a reader. She said she hated everything that Patricia was wearing but still thought she looked amazing. Part of what makes great style is this ability - to wear what you want and push boundaries of what others find acceptable and do it with such confidence that at best you get people questioning their own concepts of style, and at worst you don't care what others think. There were so many at Kenny Kenny's opening that successfully push these boundaries that I wanted to show a few more today.
Me with Kenny Kenny -love the topknot and eye makeup

Amanda Lepore is an iconic presence in NYC nightlife and always looks amazing. She is like a Barbie Doll come to life and is also extremely warm and unpretentious.

Vanity Society (on left) is a millinery and accessories designer as well as an entertainer and Patrick McDonald (center) is perhaps the most famous Dandy in New York and was recently on reality TV series Launch My Line. Vanity Society looks different but always dramatic every time I see him while Patrick has honed a very specific and sharp look. Two different tacts to create great personal style. (I don't know the lovely lady on the right!) Love or hate these looks, they're truly their own icons and for that I give them the mad props.

Color Me Beige

Nothing like a neutral tone to complement the theatrics...of the outfit and the evening.
