Wow, the filter really killed this picture… Adding the orig.
heyyy I’m a boi and totally stressed out about clothes for med school interviews… it’s just been super casual and genderqueer in college
I wore a pantsuit to my med school interviews. You can too.
You can totally wear a men’s suit with a white button up.
Wear a tie if you want.
Hey Lizz, I friend of mine passed away and I need some fashion advice on what to wear to his memorial. I can’t for the life of me wear heels and I’m not exactly a dressy type of girl. Thanks
You can wear whatever you want that’s somewhat formal and toned down. Black pants and a neutral/black button up is fine. Sorry for your loss. Sorry I wasn’t here sooner to respond.
Liz, you are a fashion icon. I have a very important question for you regarding bags for butches but it is a little involved and too long for formspring. What should I do?
You should message me through autostraddle social.
I need a hug. I’m sick and far away from home. I just want my mom
aw, baby! it’s ok, it happens. today is not the only day of your life. there will be other days after this one. just get through today and tomorrow. so just like, wallow in today until it’s over and then breathe again. call your mom, if you can? and hug yourself really tight. hang in there. ride the melt.
Get Baked: Blender Edition.
you suggested this twice so it seems pretty important. will look into it. (i don’t have a blender.)
It is good simply to be with women. I could not have written that five years ago. I hated women, believed perfection was male and I looked like a fairly successful imitation of a Barbie doll. Except that I kept rejecting Kens.
Radio is more important to Angelenos (because of cars), but songs tend to have a tiny shelf life before they disappear and show up on an oldies station 15 years later. Good songs never seem to fall out of fashion on New York radio. In New York, you can walk into a deli and hear Notorious B.I.G.’s...
“New Yorkers cry in public, all the time, everywhere. On the subway. Just walking down the street. Angelenos cry in their cars.”
Write the story that you were always afraid to tell. I swear to you that there is magic in it, and if you show yourself naked for me, I’ll be naked for you. It will be our covenant.
