Grab Bag! | September 19, 2009 | Comments (3)

CONFESSION: This is just a mixed bag of delayed, overlooked or abandoned FFAF ensembles! M & I realized we’d missed a few here and there, and since I’ve been so super duper busy at work I figured this was a nice way to fill in some of the blanks. The above are photos from the night we attended the annual SF Drag King competition with a handful of out-of-town lovelies. I wore the BCBG dress that M got me last Christmas, with the patent neapolitan sandals in shades of plucky plum. M wore these excellent BDG slacks from Urban Outfitters with an Express shirt and a vintage bowtie. We were mostly well-behaved, if I recall correctly. Maybe we took a hot brunette home with us that night, but I’m not saying any more!

CONFESSION: Yet another instance of my failure to do laundry (I’ve been BUSY!) resulting in raiding of the petite’s closet. In my defense, she borrows some of my stuff, too. Anyway, this cheeky plaid tunic is hers, but I paired it with a lightweight cardigan, dark brown leggings, cozy socks and sleek boots. Um, and antlers. Moving on!


CONFESSION: Y’all have seen me in this dress 84,000 times, but the pics from the epic Labor Day BBQ we attended and fancy cocktails and desserts afterward were too good not to include. Especially since they involve my famous bourbon slush, bacon + Fiji apple + red onion burgers and a nifty street stamp that says BUTCH FEMME with a heart!

IN CONCLUSION: In addition to work being nuts, M & I celebrated our first wedding anniversary on Tuesday, September 15th! It was amazing. After a tasty dinner at a local tequila lounge, we treated ourselves to chocolate fondant with whiskey ice cream at a dreamy French restaurant, where the sidecars and French 75s were painstakingly made by an adorable and very skilled French bartender. Back at home, the tomboy presented me with a gift, a book she’d carefully assembled and authored and had custom printed. It sweetly and beautifully captures our first year of marriage and I still get misty just thinking about it. I love it. It’s perfect. She’s perfect. We’re perfect, and it was a perfect first anniversary, one of so, so, so many to come!
