A whole new year...

So I'll be doing New Year's at friends, having some drinks and chatting and absolutely not getting into a party dress and trying to get kissed at midnight. Hmph.

Georges Chakra 2015

Being turned into a retro 50s girl is totally in right now.

Thanks to Jennifer Sometimes for the pic!

Simone is BAAAACK!

Three new captions, including this one! I especially love the expressions in the photo here.

The space between holidays...

Stuck at home... resisting the temptation to loot my mother's closet...

"I love having people help fasten me into my heels..."

Bella Thorne, preparing for the VMAs.

A gift just for me!

For Christmas I got nothing draggy.

Although I did just get to start a new Elliquiy thread to star in called "Modern Man To 50s Housewife"... ;)

Happy Holidays!

Hope you're having a good time!

Help me, Clara, I want to go back!

Of course it was the Victorians who really made Christmas

Hence carolers in bell skirts and bonnets. Lucky them.

Pictured: Not me. Boo.

The longest night...

Time for my long black skirt...

A modern 1950s Christmas

She's making so much more of an effort... just like I would!

Pete and Shanna Cistulli, December 2011

Wrapped up with a bow...

"Your new body has arrived! I hope you like it!"

Debbie Reynolds, 1950something

I try to keep my non-kinky fandoms separate. (It doesn't always work, see wanting to be Clara in Doctor Who...)

And obviously to be beautiful and rich and have lots of pretty things to wear for him...

All I want for Christmas is a husband...

I have no idea...

But I want that last dress.

A thought tonight

We have people living in space tonight, and have had constantly for years. We have reusable spacecraft (again). We have a probe on Mars, we landed another on a comet. All that in less than 60 years since we sent someone into space properly. We're amazing. really, when we try.

Sky Ferreira for Illicit

New Jimmy Choo perfume advert, so pretty.

Not sure I'd want a fragrance from s shoe designer though. :D

Feeling so naughty tonight...

Terrible weather... where's my mink coat?

New envy target

Rotem Sela, Israeli model

A picture via Mistress Simone...

“Don’t look so worried, Graham. No-one will recognize you like this.”

“That’s what worries me!”

Perfume and clothing adverts... a tempting parallel world

Xmas TV advertising is full of faux-festive cheer, toys, food... and fashion and perfume ads trying to lure me into evening dresses, stiletto heels, full makeup and perfume.

Pantomime

Panto is many a British child's introduction to the theatre... and to seeing men in dresses.

I've never wanted to be a panto dame... I want to be the "principal boy", and end the day by taking off that costume and going back to girls' clothes...

Panto has pretty much lost that half of its stage crossdressing tradition, keeping the drag-ish dames in most cases but making the male leads, well, male. The lack of female 'princes' in tights and heels is a real shame...

Of course I want to be the principal girl most of all.

Holly came from Miami, F-L-A...

Holly Woodlawn, the original walker on the wild side, has died.

A serious post - Prison Transform

A petition to change the way the prison service treats trans prisoners.

Oh Clara, if you had to leave, at least you did it in a retro waitress uniform...

Soooo tempting

There's a dress shop near my work with a lot of 50s-style pretty retro dresses in the window. And on a local shop promotion day earlier this week they had this red polka-dot one with a red satin bow belt out in the doorway. I had to stop myself touching it...

Snow!

So pretty. So impractical. So me.

Keep cosy by the fire!

December!

I'm not really a fan of the "sexy Santa" thing, but you know I would if I had the figure for it.
