Mission Monday #27--Say Something Hat Week
I've been watching a lot of To Wong Foo for some reason and this part has stuck with me for an idea for Mission Week. So next week, we will be celebrating hats. Specifically, say something hats.
I hope to be able to fill you in soon about the Good Exchange Clothing Swap and Fashion Show soon. It was hosted on my birthday last week and it was (as always) a blast!
For starters, I got to meet Tim Gunn. This was a lifelong dream, of course. Patrick told him it was my birthday and he wished me happy birthday. And he congratulated us on the baby. (I thought about asking him to be the godfather, but that might have been awkward.)
He was so down to earth and nice. I could hardly believe it! He took a moment with the whole long line of fans to say thank you, sign books and take photos. It was really cool.
I met Mondo at the show when I went last year, but I got to see him again. That is always a treat as he is also very nice and humble. And, of course, well dressed. I was on Cloud Nine when he shook my hand again because he totally recognized me from last year!
Last year, I went to the show by myself. This year I took Patrick and it was a lot of fun to go with him. As much as I don't mind going to things by myself, it is really nice to share the moment with someone that I love.
He's such a good sport. He actually likes coming to shows with me, though I never "make" him go. It's fun to do the couple thing and share interests with each other.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
